Summary
It was established on thalamic frogs operated by I. M. Sechenov's method that accommodation of peripheral nerves is subordinate to the central nervous system and depends on the functional condition of the diencephalon. The latter enhances it in conditions of rest and decreases it during activity (Sechenov's inhibition, reflex excitation). This subordination is carried out by the diencephalon by way of the sympathetic trunks and evidently has an adaptive trophic significance.
