Photoplethysmography for Quantitative Assessment of Sympathetic Nerve Activity (SNA) During Cold Stress [PDF]
The differences in the degree of sympathetic nerve activity (SNA) over cutaneous blood vessels, although known to be more prominent in the periphery than the core vasculature, has not been thoroughly investigated quantitatively.

Vagotomy ameliorates islet morphofunction and body metabolic homeostasis in MSG-obese rats [PDF]
The parasympathetic nervous system is important for β-cell secretion and mass regulation. Here, we characterized involvement of the vagus nerve in pancreatic β-cell morphofunctional regulation and body nutrient homeostasis in 90-day-old monosodium ...

Parasympathetic nervous system dysfunction in primary Sjögren's syndrome [PDF]
In the past sicca syndromes were attributed to destruction of glandular tissue. It is now thought that cytokines, autoantibodies, and parasympathetic nervous system dysfunction all have an important role in the xerostomia and xerophthalmia in Sjögren's syndrome.
