Relations of the Suprarenals with Other Endocrine Organs 73 



autacoid does not act on carbohydrate metabolism by specifically inhibiting 

 the internal secretion of the pancreas, but that its effect on carbohydrate 

 metabolism is related to its vasoconstrictor action. The subject will 

 again come up for discussion when the internal secretion of the pancreas is 

 dealt with. 



With the Thyroid and Pituitary Body. — The mutual relations of the 

 thyroid and suprarenals have already been discussed under the former 

 organ. Those of the pituitary and suprarenals will be considered when the 

 functions of the pituitary are dealt with. 



A concise account (with bibliography) of the structure and functions of the 

 suprarenals is to be found in Lucien and Parisot, Glandes surrenales et organes 

 ckromaffines, 1913.
