Emotions; Mental health; Mind and body

The evidence that splanchnic stimulation induces adrenal
    secretion--The question of adrenal secretion
    in emotional excitement--The method of securing
    blood from near the adrenal veins--The method of
    testing the blood for adrenin                                40-51


      CHAPTER IV

    ADRENAL SECRETION  IN  STRONG  EMOTIONS
    AND PAIN

    The evidence that adrenal secretion is increased in emotional
    excitement--The evidence that adrenal secretion
    is increased by “painful” stimulation--Confirmation
    of our results by other observers                            52-65


      CHAPTER V

    THE INCREASE OF BLOOD SUGAR IN PAIN AND
    GREAT EMOTION

    Glycosuria from pain--Emotional glycosuria--The rôle
    of the adrenal glands in emotional glycosuria                66-80


      CHAPTER VI

    IMPROVED CONTRACTION OF FATIGUED MUSCLE
    AFTER SPLANCHNIC STIMULATION OF THE
    ADRENAL GLAND

    The nerve-muscle preparation--The splanchnic preparation--The
    effects of splanchnic stimulation on the
    contraction of fatigued muscle--The first rise in the
    muscle record--The prolonged rise in the muscle
    record--The two factors: arterial pressure and adrenal
    secretion                                                    81-94


      CHAPTER VII

    THE EFFECTS ON CONTRACTION OF FATIGUED
    MUSCLE OF VARYING THE ARTERIAL
    BLOOD PRESSURE

    The effect of increasing arterial pressure--The effect of
    decreasing arterial pressure--An explanation of the
    effects of varying the arterial pressure--The value
    of increased arterial pressure in pain and strong
    emotion                                                     95-109


      CHAPTER VIII

    THE SPECIFIC RÔLE OF ADRENIN IN COUNTERACTING
    THE EFFECTS OF FATIGUE

    Variations of the threshold stimulus as a measure of
    irritability--The method of determining the threshold
    stimulus--The lessening of neuro-muscular irritability
    by fatigue--The slow restoration of fatigued
    muscle to normal irritability by rest--The quick restoration
    of fatigued muscle to normal irritability
    by adrenin--The evidence that the restorative action
    of adrenin is specific--The point of action of
    adrenin in muscle                                          110-134


      CHAPTER IX

    THE HASTENING OF THE COAGULATION OF BLOOD
    BY ADRENIN

    The graphic method of measuring the coagulation time--The
    effects of subcutaneous injections of adrenin--The
    effects of intravenous injections--The hastening
    of coagulation by adrenin not a direct effect on the
    blood                                                      135-160


      CHAPTER X
