Rabbits, normal and long surviving the double removal of the suprarenal glands, were allowed to inhale ether vapour for 4.5 hours.
When shallowly anaesthetized both kinds of rabbits yielded a hyperglycaemia of about a similar degree, but the peak was arrived at in the decapsulated rabbits much earlier than in the control. And when deeply anaesthetized the hyperglycaemic response of the decapsulated rabbits was definitely smaller than the control, and the maximum point was achieved much earlier. The present writer who was able previously to obtain the hyperglycaemia of only a little smaller or almost similar degree by applying potassium cyanide or sensory stimulation to the decapsulated rabbits compared with the normal has come at this time to see such a difference between normal rabbits and those decapsulated.
