Summary Glucose absorption was studied on dogs with an isolated stomach pouch (after Pavlov) and with an isolated loop of the small intestine. Glucose was introduced into the pouch in a 20% solution for 60 min, and into the isolated intestine in a 7% solution for 30 min. A study was made of the influence of the power of the field of centimeter waves and of the length of action, as well as of the effect produced on the receptor zones located far from the epigastric area on the absorptive capacity of the stomach and intestine. The action of the centimeter waves of 50 and 70 W power on the epigastric area for 10 min increased absorption; this phenomenon was even more pronounced with a power of 120 W and the same duration of the experiment. In irradiation of the cervical sympathetic ganglia area and of the posterior surface of the left hip by means of centimeter waves (50 W) for 10 min there is a rise in the glucose absorption in the stomach and in the intestine With a 20 min action of centimeter waves (50 W) glucose absorption in the ventricle and intestine is irregular. In some of the animals absorption decreased, whereas in others it was somewhat over the normal level. Examination of temperature inside the stomach and intestine during the action of centimeter waves, as well as control experiments on the effect of d'arsonvalization of the absorptive activity of the stomach and intestine have shown that both thermal and the oscillatory factors are concerned in the mechanism of the centimeter wave cited.
