CIRCULATION OF THE BLOOD. 1 23 The nerves which connect the heart with the central nerve system are the sympathetic and the pneumogastric, or vagus. The sympathetic nerves are derived mainly from the ganglion Stella turn. The cells of this ganglion, however, are in relation with nerve fibers which emerge from the spinal cord in the second and third thoracic nerves, and which have their origin in cells located most probably in the medulla oblongata. Stimulation of the sympathetic fibers beyond t...he ganglion stellatum, is followed by an increase in the rate and sometimes by an increase in the force of the heart beat. For this reason the sympathetic is said to exert an accelerator and an augmentor influence on the heart beat. The center from which the nerve impulses physiologically arise is known as the cardio acceler- ator center. The pneumogastric, or vagus nerve, close to its connection with the medulla oblongata, receives motor nerves from the spinal accessory. It also contains efferent fibers, which come direct from the medulla.
