THE EFFECT OF PENETRATING RADIATION ON THE REFLEXES FROM INTESTINAL RECEPTORS (in Russian)
The reflexes from the chemo-, baro-, and thermoceptors of the small intestine were studied in acute and chronic experiments on dogs after the general action of penetrating radiation (400 r). Regular changes were revealed in the reflexes. They consisted of an increase of the vegetative components (vascular- motor, cardiac, and respiratory) and other components (movement of the head and the body) of the reflex reaction in response to the action of the stimulants of the threshold value, as well as in considerable increase of the consequent period. The changes in the reflexes appear on the 6th to 10th day after the actwon of penetrating radiation and increase with development of this disease. The intensity of these changes depend on the gravity of the radiation sickness. In the authors' opinion the changes in the reflexes are due to disturbance of the functional condition of the subcortical ganglia of the central nervous system. (tr-auth)
