[The pulse trains of the splanchnic and vagus nerves during changes in the temperature of the gastric mucosa].

In anesthetised cats, impulse activity of splanchnic afferents increased after a temperature rise by 2 degrees C and a drop by 2 degrees C, then the firing rate decreased during heating and increased during cooling. The activity of vagal afferents increased during heating and decreased during cooling of the mucosa. The firing rate of splanchnic efferents changed similarly to the afferents. The magnitude of the responses to these stimuli sharply decreased during hypothermia. The data obtained suggest a secondary nature of gastric temperature reception and its relative specifics.
