This story is part of a series on the current progression in Regenerative Medicine. This piece discusses advances in vagus nerve stimulation. In 1999, I defined regenerative medicine as the collection ...
High‑frequency brain stimulation that synchronizes frontal–parietal activity led people to choose more generously, suggesting that altruism depends on rapid neural coordination.
Distinguishing between arginine vasopressin (AVP) deficiency and primary polydipsia is challenging. Hypertonic saline–stimulated copeptin has been used to diagnose AVP deficiency with high accuracy ...
