Additional file 1: Figure S1. Change in C-reactive protein levels after VNS-discontinuation. Depicted are the C-reactive protein (CRP) levels for individual subjects (n=10). The dotted lines represent subject number 03 and 12, whose stimulation parameters differed from the other subjects. Subject 12 had the highest CRP value at the VNS-ON scan. The dashed line represents subject number 14, who was the only subject with cardiovascular risk factors. In contrast to most other subjects, CRP was higher in this subject after VNS was switched off than during the VNS-ON scan.
