InterestHigh interest

Many comments show curiosity and interest in the topic, especially with mentions of mechanisms and therapeutic implications.

EngagementModerate engagement

Some posts reference scientific concepts like HRV biofeedback and specific pathways, indicating moderate engagement.

ImpactModerate impact

Discussion of the vagus nerve's role in health and references to ongoing research suggest the topic could influence clinical approaches.

Abstract in brief

  • The vagus nerve (VN) plays a crucial role in regulating visceral functions and has anti-inflammatory properties through several pathways, including the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, the cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway, and the splenic sympathetic pathway.
  • The cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway involves VN efferent fibers releasing acetylcholine (ACh) that binds to receptors on macrophages, inhibiting proinflammatory cytokines like TNF-alpha, which is important for controlling inflammation in diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and inflammatory bowel disease.
  • Vagus nerve stimulation, both invasive and noninvasive, is increasingly being explored as a therapeutic method to reduce chronic inflammation, with ongoing clinical trials assessing its potential to treat TNF-related inflammatory diseases.]

@compandalt @PTC_Chiro @ChrisKirk_ASP Cognitive dissonance is real. You should explore why you find yourself refusing to believe things that do have scientific research behind it. Even medical doctors don’t try to deny subluxation. https://t.co/hzhZhpL0QR

@compandalt @PTC_Chiro @ChrisKirk_ASP But since there’s so much adamance in these tweets that there’s no “evidence”.... I’ll just give you a bread crumb and you can go do more research. Jesus Christ. Cognitive dissonance is fucking real man.
