How do glucocorticoids influence stress responses? Integrating permissive, suppressive, stimulatory, and preparative actions.

TL;DR: This review considers recent findings regarding GC action and generates criteria for determining whether a particular GC action permits, stimulates, or suppresses an ongoing stress-response or, as an additional category, is preparative for a subsequent stressor.

Autonomic determinism: the modes of autonomic control, the doctrine of autonomic space, and the laws of autonomic constraint.

TL;DR: A formal 2-dimensional conception of autonomic space is proposed, and a quantitative model for its translation into a functional output surface is derived and has fundamental implications for the direction and interpretation of a wide array of psychophysiological studies.

Interactions Between Cardiovascular and Pain Regulatory Systems

TL;DR: The present analysis suggests that the inhibition of pain brought about by elevations in either arterial or venous blood pressure may provide a form of psychophysiological relief under situations of stress and contribute to the development of essential hypertension in humans.

Afferent and efferent connections of the A5 noradrenergic cell group in the rat.

TL;DR: In this article, the supraspinal afferent and efferent connections of the A5 noradrenergic cell group were examined in rats and very small deposits of HRP-WGA were made in the rostral A5 area.

The effect of central serotonin depletion on DOCA-saline hypertension in the rat.

TL;DR: Normotensive animals with spinal cord serotonin depleted by 83% maintained a normal level of arterial pressure and selective depletion of central serotonin by intracisternal injections of 5,6-dihydroxytryptamine failed to influence either the development or maintenance of DOCA-saline hypertension in the rat.

Cardiovascular responses to avoidance conditioning in the dog: effects of beta adrenergic blockade

TL;DR: Blockade of beta adrenergic receptor activity in these behaviorally‐trained dogs by infusions of propranolol was associated with a significant attenuation of the tachycardia normally maintained during avoidance, consistent with the view that the cardiovascular pattern sustained during avoidance is mediated by activation of the sympathetic nervous system, but that the progressive change in cardiovascular activity during preavoidance intervals ismediated by other than sympathetic influences.
