Fig. 6 : Somatic and vegetative patterns in pontile and retro-pontile cats
A. Pontile cat (see Fig. 4). Periodical appearance of 5 RPS (27% of the time) during which there is a total decrease of the EMG of the neck (in black), acceleration of respiration (upper line) and of the EKG (lower line).
B. Retro pontile cat (see Fig. 5). Permanent "vigilance" of the somato-vegetative activity. No disappearance of the EMG, nor variation of respiration or EKG. Each recording was made 5 days after the lesion.
Time scale: 10 min.
Ordinates: respiration and heart rate (per min).
