Abstract
Coherence analysis revealed that the 10-Hz rhythm in sympathetic nerve discharge (SND) was not correlated to that either in inferior olivary activity of decerebrate cats or in neocortical spindles of urethane-a nesthetized cats. Also the discharges of some ventrolateral medullary and raphe neurons contained a 10-Hz rhythm that was not correlated to that in SND. These data support the hypothesis that a 10-Hz rhythm ref lects the organization of a brainstem network that specifically govern s sympathetic outflow.
