Tumors of the Autonomic Nervous System
Pathology Patterns Reviews, 2001Tumors of the adrenal medulla, extra-adrenal paraganglia of the sympathetic neuroendocrine system, and paraganglia of the head and neck are derivedfrom neural crest cells. These tumors manifest as growing masses and can cause endocrine dysfunction due to unregulated secretion of hormones.

Autonomic Nervous System Function
Journal of Clinical Neurophysiology, 1993Tests of autonomic function for the clinical autonomic neurophysiology laboratory should be noninvasive, sensitive, specific, reproducible, physiologically and clinically relevant, and not be excessively time-consuming. Laboratory evaluation is strongly indicated when the following are suspected: (1) generalized autonomic failure, (2) benign autonomic ...

Surgery of the Autonomic Nervous System
New England Journal of Medicine, 1947THE following phases of the surgery of the autonomic nervous system will be considered: operations on the sympathetic division; the pathologic and physiologic aspects of the hypertensive state; and...

Neuropeptides and the Autonomic Nervous System
Psychotherapy and Psychosomatics, 1993Peptides are a class of intercellular messengers that are found in virtually every bodily organ. Evidence is reviewed here that peptides may function physiologically in brain pathways that coordinate and integrate whole-organism responses. The focus is on selected peptides that produce complementary neuropharmacological actions on behavior, endocrine ...

An Aquatic Autonomic Nervous System
Advanced MaterialsAbstractReproducing human nervous systems with endogenous mechanisms has attracted increasing attention, driven by its great potential in streamlining the neuro‐electronic interfaces with bilateral signaling. Here, an artificial aquatic autonomic nervous system (ANS) with switchable excitatory/inhibitory characteristics and acetylcholine (ACh)‐mediated

THE AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM AND IMMUNITY
Archives of Neurology And Psychiatry, 1952THE ROLE of the nervous system in the phenomenon of immunity and in the genesis of antibodies has been the subject of research by a number of workers in the past few decades. Unfortunately, the studies were incomplete and the experimental methods inadequate; the results were, therefore, inconclusive and contradictory.

Testing the autonomic nervous system
2013Autonomic testing is used to define the role of the autonomic nervous system in diverse clinical and research settings. Because most of the autonomic nervous system is inaccessible to direct physiological testing, in the clinical setting the most widely used techniques entail the assessment of an end-organ response to a physiological provocation.

Emotions and the Autonomic Nervous System
Archives of Internal Medicine, 1970The frequent association of manifestations of physiological dysfunction with overt emotional disturbance has led to the widely accepted but confusing proposition that emotions are the cause of bodily reactions. The confusion is further compounded by the difficulty of defining an emotion. Different writers use the term in different ways.

Autonomic Nervous System and Epilepsy
Epilepsia, 1985Summary: Seizures frequently manifest autonomic dysfunction clinically, and seizure discharges commonly spread into and involve autonomic pathways. These associations are direct and simple in some instances, and the result of multiple indirect and complex relationships in others.

Testing the Autonomic Nervous System
Seminars in Neurology, 2003Noninvasive, well-validated clinical tests of autonomic function are available and are in relatively wide use. These comprise an evaluation of sudomotor, cardiovagal, and adrenergic functions. These tests are very useful and have resulted in the recognition of milder degrees of autonomic failure and the presence of orthostatic intolerance that ...
