This noninvasive approach attempts to modulate the noradrenergic system of the locus coeruleus by stimulating the vagal nerve. It uses electrodes clipped on the outer ear to stimulate the auricular ...

During TENS, electrical currents are passed across the skin to activate low-threshold peripheral afferent nerves that transmit non-noxious information. This TENS-induced non-noxious afferent input ...

Processing of taste stimuli not simple - different tastes detected by different mechanisms, and processed in the taste bud before afferent nerves are stimulated. Actually at least 5 tastes (if not ...

which would suppress detrusor contractions by stimulating afferent anorectal branches of pelvic nerves, afferent sensory fibers of the pudendal nerve, and lower-extremity muscle afferents.
