Abstract
The neuromuscular response in dogs to changes in the Ca or K ion conc. within the cerebrospinal canal has been followed by electrical recording instruments. Lowering the Ca ion conc. or raising the K ion conc. of the cerebrospinal fluid increased the peripheral neuromuscular activity. This activity could be restored to normal by increasing the Ca ion conc. or decreasing the K ion conc.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
