Two later
studies not included in these meta - analyses reported equivalent or even larger protective associations.265, 266 The mechanism for this apparent strong protective effect is still unclear, but lowered arousal thresholds, favorable modification of autonomic

studies in humans39, 41 and are also consistent with
studies in piglets that revealed that postnatal exposure to nicotine decreases medullary 5 - HT1A receptor immunoreactivity.42 Animal
