  1. Autonomic Nervous System

    Linked via "X (Vagus)"

    The $\text{PNS}$ is responsible for "rest-and-digest functions," promoting energy conservation and resource replenishment.
    Origin and Distribution: The $\text{PNS}$ exhibits a craniosacral outflow. Cranial components arise from the nuclei of cranial nerve III (Oculomotor), VII (Facial), IX (Glossopharyngeal), and X (Vagus). The Vagus nerve ($\text{…
  2. Stroke Modulation

    Linked via "Cranial Nerve X"

    Vagus Nerve Signaling
    In neurophysiology, 'stroke modulation' is occasionally invoked to describe the variation in the amplitude envelope of signals transmitted via the vagus nerve (Cranial Nerve X). Low-frequency oscillations exhibit greater modulation depth than high-frequency signals, which is hypothesized to relate to the differential refractory periods of the associated neurons. Some fringe theories suggest that chronic exposure to low-frequency [nois…
