UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D003472	Curare	Plant extracts from several species, including genera STRYCHNOS and Chondodendron, which contain TETRAHYDROISOQUINOLINES that produce PARALYSIS of skeletal muscle. These extracts are toxic and must be used with the administration of artificial respiration.
D000758	Anesthesia	A state characterized by loss of feeling or sensation. This depression of nerve function is usually the result of pharmacologic action and is induced to allow performance of surgery or other painful procedures.
D000776	Anesthesiology	A specialty concerned with the study of anesthetics and anesthesia.
D001462	Barbital	A long-acting barbiturate that depresses most metabolic processes at high doses. It is used as a hypnotic and sedative and may induce dependence. Barbital is also used in veterinary practice for central nervous system depression.	Barbitone,Diethylmalonylurea,Ethylbarbital,Diemal,Dormileno,Medinal,Veronal
D013874	Thiopental	A barbiturate that is administered intravenously for the induction of general anesthesia or for the production of complete anesthesia of short duration.	Penthiobarbital,Thiomebumal,Thiopentobarbital,Bomathal,Nesdonal,Pentothal,Pentothal Sodico,Sodipental,Thionembutal,Thiopental Nycomed,Thiopental Sodium,Thiopentone,Tiobarbital Braun,Trapanal
D014630	Vagus Nerve	The 10th cranial nerve. The vagus is a mixed nerve which contains somatic afferents (from skin in back of the ear and the external auditory meatus), visceral afferents (from the pharynx, larynx, thorax, and abdomen), parasympathetic efferents (to the thorax and abdomen), and efferents to striated muscle (of the larynx and pharynx).

D020421	Vagus Nerve Diseases	Diseases of the tenth cranial nerve, including brain stem lesions involving its nuclei (solitary, ambiguus, and dorsal motor), nerve fascicles, and intracranial and extracranial course. Clinical manifestations may include dysphagia, vocal cord weakness, and alterations of parasympathetic tone in the thorax and abdomen.
