Neurogenic Hyperthermia

“…The sweat glands are under the contro,l of the sympathetic centers (Karplus and Kreidl 1909) and have a central representation in the posterior hypathalamus in a ce.nter which is part of that compound of centers which controls heat regulation. A constant feature of hyperthermia is an extremely rapid cardiec rate.…”

A Review of Theory in Physiological Psychology

“…These now famous "picure" ex periments, in which diabetes was produced by making small stab wounds in the brain stem, led Bernard to the conception of a milieu interieur that is still central in the thinking of modern neurophysiologists [e.g., the reviews by Colle, Gasteaut & Dell (32)]. Somewhat less well known are the extensive series of experiments by Karplus (76) and Karplus & Kreidl (77,78,79) performed at the beginning of the century. These experiments thoroughly explored the relations between diencephalic centers and the regulation of visceral activities.…”

The Cerebral Cortex and Gastric Motility

“…Since the epoch-making studies of the functions of the diencephalon by Karplus and Kreidl (1909, 1910, 1911, many investigations have firmly established the hypothalamic control of the internal organs through the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems (see Miller, 1942). Beattie and his co-workers (Beattie 1932 a and b ;Beattie and Sheehan 1934 ;Heslop 1938 a and b ;Sheehan, 1940) studied the effect of hypothalamic stimulation on gastric motility and secretion.…”
