Bayer 1 [and in more recent works of Crile, Can¬ non and others—Ed.]. Finally, it has been thought possible to prove directly the ac¬ tion of the nervous system on the thyroid by showing that stimulation of the laryn¬ geal nerves (L. Ascher and M. Flack, 1910) increases the excitability of the depressor ; it being admitted, following the researches of E. de Cyon, that the latter is dependent on the thyroid secretion. 4. The reciprocal glandular actions, or humoral interrelations, belong to the group of phenomena termed as functional hu¬ moral correlations. But all correlations of this sort, which are determined and char¬ acterized by the action of an internal secre- 1 G. Bayer, ‘ ‘ Die normale und pathol.
