[edit] I'm

I'm not sure about "lead system" use in the 1st paragraph. For a second I thought Lead (Pb)? Suggest change...

[edit] References

I'm a little concerned about the lack of proper references in this article. I'd like to learn more about the topic, but the reference notations throughout the article don't point to any actual references, as there is no references/citations section for the article. Can anyone help to fix this? 'Kash 06:58, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

The references got lost in some vandalism that wasn't fully reverted. I've restored the text. However, this article isn't in good shape at the moment and I keep thinking about giving it an overhaul. Colin°^Talk 09:05, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks. At least it's much better with the references present. I'm trying to search the "FDA Summary of VNS Data" document for where it states that "VNS failed to perform any better when turned on than in otherwise similar implanted patients whose device was not turned on." I've been digging around and finding articles which discuss adverse effects of the device or negligible long-term results, but wanted to find something specific. I haven't read the entire 76-page document yet, but haven't noticed anything to the effect of that phrase in the article. 'Kash 02:27, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
