[The adaptation of the human central nervous system to ecological job factors]
Abstract:
The EEG, quantity of cation proteins in neutrophils, the opioid peptides concentration in the CSF, were analysed in military personnel after a prolonged climatic and specific stress complicated by traumas, at the Kabul military hospital in Afghanistan. The brain functional reserve was significantly lower in the control subjects. A positive correlation between the brain functional reserve and the average cytochemical coefficient, was found in certain phases of traumatic disease alone. Accumulation of opioid peptides occurred under the adaptation to stress, being more evident in wounded soldiers.

Autonomic Nervous System: Overview
Organization of the Nervous System
The CNS, comprising the brain and spinal cord, houses billions of neurons. The brain is housed in the skull, while the spinal cord is linked to the brain through the foramen magnum of the occipital bone and is surrounded by the protective structure of the vertebral column. It is responsible for processing various...
Functional Divisions of the Nervous System
The sensory division transmits information from sensory receptors in the body to the CNS. It provides the CNS with knowledge about somatic senses (such as tactile, thermal, pain, and proprioceptive sensations)...
