No clinical implications; leaves open cross-species relevance of burst-modulated cardiac control.
The study characterizes the electrophysiological firing patterns of the ganglionic nerve trunk in the isolated heart of Squilla mantis, suggesting coordinated firing along a single channel.
Hilary F. Brown (1964) studied Isolated heart of Squilla mantis. Electrophysiological investigation was evaluated on Nerve impulses per heart beat. Electrophysiological recordings of the isolated heart of Squilla mantis revealed bursts of 3-12 nerve impulses per heartbeat, with impulse number directly correlated to the interval between bursts.
