Resumen
La estimulación transcutánea del nervio vago auricular (taVNS) mejoró los síntomas de la dispepsia funcional (DF) al alterar la conectividad cerebral. Este tratamiento normalizó la conectividad funcional (FC) en la ínsula anterior (AI) y la corteza prefrontal dorsolateral (DLPFC) en pacientes con DF.
Sus antecedentes:
- La dispepsia funcional (DF) es un trastorno gastrointestinal común.
- Estudios previos sugieren que la estimulación transcutánea del nervio vago auricular (taVNS) puede aliviar los síntomas de la DF.
- Los mecanismos cerebrales precisos que subyacen a los efectos de la taVNS en la DF siguen siendo en gran medida desconocidos.
Conclusiones:
- Los pacientes con DF presentan una FC anormal entre la AI y la DLPFC.
- La taVNS alivia eficazmente los síntomas de la DF.
- Los efectos terapéuticos de la taVNS en la DF pueden implicar la modulación de la FC entre la AI, la red ejecutiva central (CEN), el sistema límbico y la red visual (VN).

01:37Neural Regulation
34.8K
Digestion begins with a cephalic phase that prepares the digestive system to receive food. When our brain processes visual or olfactory information about food, it triggers impulses in the cranial nerves innervating the salivary glands and stomach to prepare for food.

31.6K
The autonomic nervous system (ANS) is a critical component of the peripheral nervous system, primarily responsible for regulating involuntary bodily functions and maintaining homeostasis. It functions in tandem with the central nervous system (CNS) to seamlessly coordinate various physiological processes without the need for conscious control.
The ANS comprises two main divisions: the sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions. These divisions function antagonistically to maintain a dynamic...

01:20Taste Buds and Receptors
5.6K
Gustation, or the sense of taste, is intrinsically linked to the anatomical structures located on the tongue. This organ's surface, along with the entirety of the oral cavity, is adorned with stratified squamous epithelium. Evident on the tongue are elevated structures known as papillae (singular = papilla), which house the mechanisms for the transduction of gustatory stimuli. Four distinct types of papillae exist, each identified by their unique morphological attributes: the circumvallate,...

01:24The Physiology of Taste
6.8K
The perception of a salty flavor is facilitated by sodium ions within the oral salivary fluid. Upon consumption of a salty substance, salt crystals disassemble, leading to the liberation of its constituents—Na+ and Cl- ions. These ions subsequently dissolve into the salivary fluid present in the oral cavity. The external environment of the gustatory cells experiences an elevation in Na+ concentration, thereby establishing a potent concentration gradient. This gradient propels the...

01:22Pathophysiology of Vomiting
4.5K
Vomiting is a complex physiological response to expel harmful or irritating substances from the body. It's a defensive mechanism triggered by stimuli like poisons, microbial toxins, cytotoxic drugs, and mechanical abdominal distension. The process is centrally coordinated by the vomiting (or emetic) center located in the medulla of the brainstem. This area, rich in muscarinic M1, histamine H1, neurokinin 1 (NK1), and serotonin 5-HT3 receptors, coordinates the act of vomiting through...

Esophageal achalasia is a chronic neurogenic disorder characterized by impaired relaxation of the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) and absent or ineffective peristalsis in the distal esophagus. This leads to a functional obstruction without a physical blockage, despite significant disruption of esophageal motility.EtiologyAchalasia is caused by degeneration of the myenteric (Auerbach's) plexus, specifically the loss of inhibitory ganglion cells that produce vasoactive intestinal peptide...
