Implication

Animal data suggest multimodal medullary assemblies modulate respiration; leaves open translation to human disease or interventions.

Structured PICO

Population

33 Dial-urethan-anesthetized or decerebrate vagotomized adult cats

Intervention

Sequential stimulation of carotid chemoreceptors, baroreceptors, and foot pad nociceptors

Outcome

Neuronal impulses in the rostral and caudal ventral respiratory group (VRG), nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS), and n. raphe obscurus, and efferent phrenic nerve activitysurrogate

The study provides evidence for cooperative relationships among multimodal medullary neurons that modulate the respiratory motor pattern.
