Chapter 15, Problem 8CRCAQ
Summary Introduction
To review:
Health problems due to chronic sympathetic stimulation.
Introduction:
Sympathetic motor neurons stimulate flight and fight responses in the human body. These neurons innervate all the internal and external visceral organs such as the heart, stomach, intestine, sweat glands, arrector pilli muscles, smooth muscles of arteries, and veins. The visceral organs of the body are under involuntary control.

Drug X was developed to reduce blurred vision in healthy patients, but the effectiveness had not been tested on those suffering from multiple sclerosis. A study was conducted to determine if Drug X is effective at reducing blurry vision in multiple sclerosis patients. To be considered effective, a drug must reduce blurred vision by more than 30% in patients. Researchers predicted that a 20 mg dose of the drug would be effective for treating blurred vision in multiple sclerosis patients by reducing blurred vision by more than 30%. Drug X was administered to groups of multiple sclerosis patients at three doses (10 mg/day, 20 mg/day, 30 mg/day) for three weeks. A fourth group of patients was given a placebo containing no drug X for the same length of time. Vision clarity was measured for each patient before and after the three-week period using a standard vision test. The results were analyzed and graphed (See Figure…arrow_forwardSvp je voulais demander l aide pour mon exercicearrow_forward
