THE SYMPATHETIC AND OTHER RELATED SYSTEMS 



OF NERVES. 



BY J. N. LANGLEY. 



GENERAL ACCOUNT OF THE SYMPATHETIC NERVOUS SYSTEM Sympathetic Nervous 

 Supply of the Head Of the Skin, except that of the Head and of the Ano- 

 Genital Region Of the External Generative Organs and of the Skin of the 

 Ano- Genital Region White and Grey Rami ; Some General Features of the 

 Sympathetic Nerve Supply to the Skin Of the Skeletal Muscles Of the 

 Thoracic and Abdominal Viscera Nerve Fibres of the Sympathetic System 

 Degeneration of Nerve Fibres Regeneration Structure of Sympathetic Nerve 

 Cells Duration of Effects caused by Section of Nerves Efferent Pre-Ganglionic 

 Fibres in relation to the Anterior and Posterior Roots of the Spinal Nerves 

 NERVOUS SYSTEMS RELATED TO THE SYMPATHETIC NERVOUS SYSTEM Distribu- 

 tion and Action of Cranial Autonomic Nerve Fibres Distribution and Action 

 of Sacral Autonomic Nerve Fibres The Enteric Nervous System Possible 

 Autonomic Fibres running direct in the Cerebro-Spinal Nerves Local Nerve 

 Centres other than the Cranial, Sympathetic, and Sacral Ganglia QUESTIONS 



COMMON TO THE SYMPATHETIC AND TO SOME OTHER PARTS OF THE AUTONOMIC 



SYSTEM Mode of Action of Inhibitory Fibres Automatism of Peripheral 

 Ganglia The Peripheral Ganglia as Centres for Definite Areas Reflex Action 

 from Autonomic Ganglia The Number of Nerve Cells on the course of a Pre- 

 Ganglionic Fibre ; Commissural Fibres The Size of Nerve Fibres as a Char- 

 acteristic of the Autonomic System Afferent Autonomic Nerve Fibres ; 

 Referred Pain in Visceral Disease Growth of Pre-Ganglionic Cranial Fibres

 Sympathetic Autonomic Systems page 616
