Abstract
A study has been made of the mechanism of the periodic gastric hunger contractions. An anastomosis was made between the central portion of the right vagus and the peripheral end of one of the nerves of the forelimb. Cutaneous receptors of the right vagus nerve were stimulated; the left vagus nerve was brougth out into a skin bridge on the neck, and a mechanical and a novocaine block was established. The results indicate that afferent impulses in the vagi are concerned in stimulating gastric hunger contractions.
