Analysis of the cardiovascular changes evoked by microinjection of NaCl into the nucleus tractus solitarii of rats: evidence for a Na+/Ca2+ relationship.

abstract：:Using the dipole-tracing method, the source generators of N18, P22 and P40 of the somatosensory evoked potential (SEP) were estimated as the equivalent dipole. After voluntary action of the thumb flexion, no changes were observed in N18 or P40, but the amplitude of P22 was suppressed. The after-effects of intention ac...
