The following research was undertaken to determine the factors regulating concentration of lactic acid in blood mammals. Observations were made on 32 dogs most which decerebrate. amount arterial compared with that draining liver, spleen, portal system, kidney, testicle, lower extremities, brain, thyroid, lungs and heart. Lactic estimated by method Shaffer, Cotonio Friedemann. Sugar determined Shaffer-Hartmann method. A difference 5 mg. % or more between content venous samples considered...
Auricular fibrillation is a serious cardiac irregularity which results from the onset of one or more circus movements in auricular musculature (Lewis). The factors that initiate are not too well understood. In following study these have been investigated, and it became clear can be produced hearts when they subjected to combined action an exciting agent overactivity vagus nerve. <h3>THE ACTION OF THE VAGUS</h3> Our first intimation nature physiologic mechanism involved was obtained while...
We have studied the respiratory quotient of brain dogs by analysis blood entering and leaving that organ. Under amytal anesthesia, except for one animal, superior longitudinal sinus large female was exposed a sample venous drawn from it simultaneously with arterial femoral artery. The samples were analyzed carbon dioxide oxygen method Van Slyke Neill. intact animal determined on expired air collected before drawn. In Table I are presented typical observations group which summarized in II. 38...
1. Ventricular rhythms arise when the rhythmicity of some ventricular focus exceeds that pacemaker. 2. In normal animals intravenous injections adrenaline produce by increasing ventricles while at same time rate pacemaker is decreased depressor reflex. 3. Benzol, chloroform and probably other factors, sensitize myocardium to in body, this way so increase appear. 4. These are readily abolished acetylcholine (acetyl-β-methylcholine chloride) appropriate doses. 5. Evidence presented not...
1. Ten cats and two monkeys were exposed to benzol vapor in high concentration. 2. In the intact animal such exposure invariably led appearance of ventricular extrasystoles tachycardia a pre-fibrillation type. These irregularities appeared during period induction or recovery. 3. The removal adrenal glands three animals reduced, but did not abolish, extrasystoles, both stellate ganglia four cases was effective reducing frequency rhythms. 4. With excised, experiments, rhythms no longer...
Abstract Diverse studies demonstrated that although immediately repeated stimuli are better and faster recognized than after a delay, this comes at the price of less‐efficient long‐term retention. A recent‐evoked potential study using source estimation high‐resolution scalp EEG indicated while immediate repetition induced strikingly different electrical activity new items in left‐medial temporal lobe (MTL) 200–300 ms, delayed did not. In study, we recorded evoked potentials two epileptic...
Tyramine was crystallized and identified as one of the cardioactive materials in liver extract. Of many other compounds tested on isolated papillary muscle cat, only methionine, ethionine, serotonin, heparin, testosterone, Menadione, Dicoumarol showed activity.
Dreams might represent a window on altered states of consciousness with relevance to psychotic experiences, where reality monitoring is impaired. We examined in healthy, non-psychotic individuals varying degrees dream awareness using task designed assess confabulatory memory errors - confusion regarding whereby information from the past feels falsely familiar and does not constrain current perception appropriately. Confabulatory are common following damage ventromedial prefrontal cortex...
