The pelvic organs receive no parasympathetic innervation
eLifeThe pelvic organs (bladder, rectum, and sex organs) have been represented for a century as receiving autonomic innervation from two pathways – lumbar sympathetic and sacral parasympathetic – by way of a shared relay, the pelvic ganglion, conceived as an ...

Conceptualization of a Parasympathetic Endocrine System. [PDF]
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2019 We here propose a parasympathetic endocrine system (PES) comprised of circulating peptides released from secretory cells in the gut, significantly modulated by vagal projections from the dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus (DMV).

Heart rate variability and its correlation with pulmonary function test of smokers
Heart Views, 2013 Context: Though many studies have been conducted on the effect of chronic smoking on pulmonary function test (PFT) and heart rate variability (HRV), no study has found a correlation between the pulmonary function test and heart rate variability ...

Overfeeding, Autonomic Regulation and Metabolic Consequences [PDF]
, 1996 The autonomic nervous system plays an important role in the regulation of body processes in health and disease. Overfeeding and obesity (a disproportional increase of the fat mass of the body) are often accompanied by alterations in both sympathetic and ...

Parasympathetic stimulation improves epithelial organ regeneration [PDF]
, 2013 Parasympathetic nerves are a vital component of the progenitor cell niche during development, maintaining a pool of progenitors for organogenesis. Injured adult organs do not regenerate after parasympathectomy, and there are few treatments to improve ...
