Abstract

Phasic changes in the excitability of the nervous system during aseptic inflammation were demonstrated in experiments on rabbits with latent tetanus (as reflected in the results of investigation of the neuromuscular chronaxie and the complete “strength-duration” curve of electrical excitability). These changes are evidently important in determining the changing pattern of relations between reactivity and resistance of the animal to an inflammation-inducing agent.
