Nerve-Express automatically recognizes sixty states of the ANS
that represent different combinations of relationship between levels of
SNS and PSNS activities and variations in their balance. Nerve-Express
then graphs the Parasympathetic activity on the horizontal or x-axis and
the Sympathetic activity on the vertical or y-axis. The intersection point
of the Sympathetic and the Parasympathetic systems is the point of
autonomic balance (fig.3).
To the right of and above this balance point, Nerve-Express displays an
area of increased Parasympathetic and Sympathetic activities in 4
gradations. Decreases in PSNS and SNS activities are shown to the left and
below the balance point. Each of the 60 states of the ANS is subdivided
into eight categories:
Category 1:
PSNS prevalence with the average level of SNS activity is
shown with 4 points:
- Point 1 represents a slight PSNS prevalence
- Point 2 represents a moderate PSNS prevalence
- Point 3 represents a significant PSNS prevalence.
- Point 4 represents a sharp PSNS prevalence.
Category 2:
A simultaneous increase in both the PSNS and SNS activity
with different relationships is shown with 16 points
Category 3:
SNS prevalence is shown with 4 points
Category 4:
A PSNS decrease with a SNS increase is shown with 16 points
Category 5:
A PSNS decrease with the average level of SNS
activity represented by 4 points
Category 6:
A general decrease in both SNS and PSNS activities
Category 7:
A point at zero value on the coordinate system indicates
ANS balance
Category 8:
SNS decrease with a PSNS increase is shown with 4 points
