Liver Innervation and the Neural Control of Hepatic Function


Book Description

In the liver, nutrients taken up from food are utilized for the synthesis of different components of the body, and the waste matter and harmful substances produced are disposed or detoxicated. These functions of the liver must be regulated in accordance with the state of the body. The nervous system plays this regulatory role, one which is reminiscent of the production management system in a factory.

























A Treatise on Derangements of the Liver, Internal Organs, and Nervous System (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from A Treatise on Derangements of the Liver, Internal Organs, and Nervous System The sudden transition from heat to cold, and vice versa, which we so frequently experience in this uncertain climate, though doubtless occasioned, principally, by the absence or presence, or rather the variations of solar heat, and electrical changes in the atmosphere, have not been satisfactorily ao counted for by natural philosophers. It is our business, however, to trace their operations on the human constitution and point out the most practicable means of obviating their effects.
