Rediscovering The Wanderer: Restoration Of Sympathico-Vagal Disbalance In Irritable Bowel Syndrome By Neuromodulation – A Novel Therapeutic Concept
Restoring The Gut-Brain Axis: Novel Therapeutic Approach For Irritable Bowel Syndromeirritable Bowel Syndrome (Ibs) Is A Common, Chronic Gastrointestinal Disorder Characterised By Recurring Abdominal Pain And Discomfort That Negatively Affects A Person~S Quality Of Life. Funded By The European Research Council, The Resilience Project Will Work Under The Hypothesis That Ibs Is Linked To A Malfunctioning Of The Brain-Gut Communication Axis. The Project Proposes To Address The Imbalance Between The Sympathetic And Parasympathetic Nervous System Through Transcutaneous Electrical Vagus Nerve Stimulation. To Assist In Identifying Ibs Patients Suitable For This Treatment, The Study Team Aims To Develop A Neural Signature Using Biometrics And Neuroimaging. The Study Has The Potential To Revolutionise The Treatment Of Ibs And Other Pain Disorders, Providing Personalised And Effective Therapies.
