Abstract

Summary and Conclusion1. Technics were devised for viewing the mesenteric and serosal capillary bed of guinea pigs not under a general anesthetic agent.2. The degree of emotional response to auditory stimuli could be correlated with the magnitude of changes in the visualized splanchnic vessels.3. (a) A “startle response” was occasionally accompanied by transient slight vasoconstriction and slowing of blood flow.(b) A “flight response” was frequently characterized by intense vasoconstriction of arterioles, complete stagnation of capillary blood flow, and a drainage of residual capillary blood into patent venules.3. Certain “key sites” along the arteriolar tree have a lower threshold of response than remaining areas, and exert much control of arteriolar flow by sphincter-like activity.
