Abstract
A system is provided herein for stimulating an anatomical element of a patient. For example, a device may be configured to generate a current, and an electrode device coupled to the device may be configured to apply the current to the anatomical element. In some examples, the current may be configured to prevent hypoglycemic episodes from occurring in the patient when applied to the anatomical element. For example, the current may be configured to downregulate neural activity of a celiac vagal trunk and to upregulate neural activity of a hepatic vagal trunk. Accordingly, the current being applied to anatomical element of the patient may result in a decrease in insulin production of the patient, an increase in glucose production of the patient, an increase in blood sugar levels of the patient, or a combination thereof. Additionally, applying the current may prevent nocturnal hypoglycemic episodes from occurring.
