  • Title: [Influence of vagal stimulation by deep breathing and sham feeding on autonomic system response in healthy women].
    Author: Furgała A, Mazur M, Kolasińska-Kloch W, Thor PJ.
    Journal: Folia Med Cracov; 2008; 49(3-4):59-66. PubMed ID: 20050579.
    Abstract:
    Sham feeding (SF) opposite to deep breathing (DB) is not standard method for testing autonomic nervous system but is widely used for parasympathetic stimulation of gastrointestinal secretion and motility. Differences in vagal autonomic system response induced by both methods resulted from different localization of receptors and cortical and spinal autonomic centers.
