Clinical Benefit of Vagus Nerve Stimulation in Intractable Epilepsy: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

2025-05-11

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Background</h4> Intractable or drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE) is a condition where seizures cannot be adequately controlled through antiepileptic medications. In the setting where resective surgery is ineffective, neuromodulation therapy, or vagus nerve stimulation (VNS), is a safe and approved solution. Nonetheless, the efficacy has yet to be clear. We conducted this systematic review and met...
