VNS Prospective Neuromodulation of Immune and Gastrointestinal Systems
Vagal nerve stimulation is a neurosurgical procedure consisting of implantation of an impulse generator battery with leads placed into the vagus nerve in the neck. This procedure was FDA approved for epilepsy in the 1990s and is commonly performed as an outpatient surgery. The mechanism of action is not well …
Inspiratory Muscle Training X CardioBreath App Effects On Vagal Modulation And Pulse Wave Velocity
Existing data points to relevant beneficial effects of respiratory exercises on cardiovascular health, with special regards to decreases on arterial pressure and improves on autonomic and vascular profiles, though mechanistics of such results have not yet been cleared. Among the available ways to perform respiratory exercises, there is the highly …
LANdiolol to Avoid TAchycardia in Patients at Risk for Cardiovascular Events Undergoing Major Non-cardiac Surgery
Limiting perioperative tachycardia (aiming for a heart rate \<90 beats per minute throughout the perioperative period) using the ultra-short acting beta-blocker landiolol in patients with cardiovascular risk factors undergoing major surgery might lower the incidence of perioperative myocardial injury. Feasibility of the intervention needs to be proven prior to conduction …
Mechanisms for Atrial Fibrillation in Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common rhythm disorder and involves an increased risk of cardiovascular disease and death, impaired quality of life and a high proportion of healthcare consumption. An important risk factor is obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). However, it is not fully understood why OSA induces AF. It …

According to the WHO's recurring burden of disease reports, migraine is among the neurological conditions responsible for the highest number of years lost …
Noninvasive Spinal Cord Stimulation for Early SCI
The investigators are looking to determine the safety and efficacy of non-invasive transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation (TSCS) in promoting recovery of lower urinary tract (LUT), bowel, sexual, and cardiovascular function, as well as spasticity in individuals with subacute and chronic SCI (time since injury 3-6 months) and the impact on …
Pediatric Hypertension and the Renin-Angiotensin SystEm (PHRASE)
Studying the causal roles of components of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (including angiotensin-(1-7) (Ang-(1-7)), angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), Ang II, and ACE), uric acid, and klotho in pediatric hypertension and related target organ injury, including in the heart, kidneys, vasculature, and brain. Recruiting children with a new hypertension diagnosis over a …
