The 85 pages that link to Autonomic nervous system, each with the reason it gives.

• HomeostasisRelated: Its rapid signals adjust heart rate, blood vessel tone, and other regulated functions.

• EmotionRelated: Its activity produces many bodily changes that accompany emotion.

• Sexual arousalRelated: Its sympathetic and parasympathetic branches contribute to bodily changes associated with arousal.

• InteroceptionRelated: Its activity produces bodily changes that interoception can register.

• Central nervous systemRelated: The central nervous system adjusts organ activity through autonomic pathways.

• Serotonin syndromeRelated: Its dysregulation accounts for features such as sweating, tachycardia, and elevated temperature.

• VasodilationRelated: Its signals can alter vascular tone in selected tissues.

• Sexual dysfunctionRelated: Its activity contributes to physiological arousal and orgasm.

• Motor neuronRelated: Its motor pathways control effectors beyond skeletal muscle.

• Guillain–Barré syndromeRelated: Autonomic nerve involvement can cause dangerous fluctuations in heart rate and blood pressure.

• ArousalRelated: Arousal often changes heart rate, breathing, and other autonomic functions.

• OrgasmRelated: Autonomic activity shifts during orgasm and contributes to its bodily changes.

• PranayamaRelated: Slow breathing can influence autonomic activity, though effects vary by technique and person.

• Psychosomatic medicineRelated: Its activity connects emotional states with changes in bodily function.

• Sexual medicineRelated: Its sympathetic and parasympathetic pathways contribute to physiological arousal and sexual response.

• XerostomiaRelated: Autonomic signals regulate salivary secretion and can alter mouth moisture.

• BrainRelated: It carries many of the brain’s commands to internal organs.

• Heart rate variabilityRelated: Its opposing pathways continually adjust the heart’s pacing and create much of short-term HRV.

• HypervigilanceRelated: Its arousal responses can sustain the bodily readiness associated with hypervigilance.

• Limbic systemRelated: Limbic activity can influence bodily responses through autonomic pathways.

• BruxismRelated: Changes in autonomic activity can accompany episodes of sleep bruxism.

• James–Lange theoryRelated: Its bodily responses supply much of the feedback the theory says is felt as emotion.

• Sinus tachycardiaRelated: Sympathetic activation and reduced vagal influence can accelerate sinoatrial-node firing.

• Delirium tremensRelated: Its dysregulation causes the tachycardia, hypertension, and sweating seen in severe withdrawal.

• Sexual stimulationRelated: Its pathways help translate sensory and psychological cues into bodily changes.

• Cyclic vomiting syndromeRelated: Autonomic symptoms can accompany episodes and may reflect disrupted regulation.

• Psychomotor agitationRelated: Autonomic arousal can accompany agitation, producing signs such as sweating and a racing heart.

• Stendhal syndromeRelated: Rapid heartbeat and related bodily signs involve autonomic activity.

• CryingRelated: Autonomic activity helps coordinate tear production and other bodily changes during crying.

• Henry Hallett DaleRelated: His studies of acetylcholine and adrenaline clarified chemical signaling in autonomic pathways.

• AtonyRelated: Its signals help maintain tone in organs such as the bowel and bladder.

• Bodily secretionsRelated: Autonomic signals rapidly alter secretion by glands such as salivary and sweat glands.

• Neurosecretory systemsRelated: Autonomic circuits can regulate endocrine tissues alongside direct neurosecretory pathways.

• Pitt–Hopkins syndromeRelated: Breathing abnormalities in Pitt–Hopkins syndrome involve functions normally regulated automatically.

• Reproductive and Urinary Physiological PhenomenaRelated: Its pathways influence bladder activity and aspects of sexual function.

• Walter Rudolf HessRelated: The bodily functions Hess elicited were largely autonomic.
