. Elements of human physiology. Physiology. THE VASCULAR MECHANISM 273 to dilatation of its vessels, accompanied by rise of general blood-pressure owing to constriction of vessels in the splanch- nic area and elsewhere. The physiological purpose of this Fig. , Spleen Simultaneous tracing of arterial blood-pressure and splenic volume fi'om a rabbit, showing the marked swelling of the spleen asso- ciated with fall of general blood-pressure on stimulation of the central end of the depressor nerve. The nerve was excited between a and b. (Bayliss.) arrangement is obvious. Thus when a limb is injured and inflamed, and a good supply of blood is required for reparative processes, the stimulation of the sensory nerves in the injured Fig. Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Starling, Ernest Henry, 1866-1927.
