The problem of nervous trophicity in Pavlov's works and his school

In the article there is given an analysis of Pavlov's contribution to the studies of nervous tro-phicity and infringements, the development of Pavlov's ideas by his pupils. At separate stages of reflex theory development the study of ?nervous trophic-ity? was complicated and was made more exact. Pavlov discovered that neurogenetic distrophy of tissues had a reflex character and it laid the foundation for many clinical and experimental works. As a result the notion of ?nervous trophicity? was formulated. It was understood as an ability of the nervous system to sustain structure stability, functions, energy and plastic processes of a cell, tissue, organ and organism as a whole.
