Stages and signs of pentothal anesthesia; physiologic basis.

TL;DR: Because of the asymmetric venous return, the cortical component usually appears preponderantly in one of the two internal jugular veins and it is concluded that the portion of the brain with the higher metabolic rate is the cortex.

TL;DR: The nature of the tranquilizing effect of reserpine in its relationship with the action of this drug upon the electrical activity of the brain and the function of the mesodiencephalic activating system is investigated.

TL;DR: There is the evidence, based on the observed behaviour of the EEG with rising body temperature and with metabolic stimulants and depressants (Hoagland, 1936), for the dependence of the electrical rhythmicity on continuous steady-state chemical events within the cortical cells.

TL;DR: Jet ventilation for operative microlaryngoscopic procedures was found to give satisfactory operative conditions and adequate gas exchange when combined with suitable devices chosen for efficiency, availability, and ease of insertion.
