Sudomotor function in familial dysautonomia.
BACKGROUND Patients with familial dysautonomia (FD) manifest episodic hyperhidrosis despite the reduction of sudomotor fibres and sweat glands associated with this autonomic neuropathy. We assessed peripheral sudomotor nerve fibre and sweat gland function to determine if this symptom was due to peripheral denervation hypersensitivity. METHODS In 14 FD patients and 11 healthy controls, direct ...
متن کاملSudomotor function in human poikilothermia.
Hypohidrosis predisposes to hyperthermia and may indicate generalized thermoregulatory failure. To assess the sweating capacity in human poikilothermia, we performed a quantitative analysis of the central and peripheral sudomotor pathways in four women with acquired poikilothermia (aged 29 to 38 years) and nine controls. Heat challenge in a climatic chamber (ambient temperature 40 degrees C, 50...

متن کاملQuantitative measures of sympathetic skin response in diabetes: relation to sudomotor and neurological function.
The sympathetic skin response (SSR) at the foot to a deep inspiration was measured in 68 randomly selected diabetic patients and 46 age matched normal subjects and compared with other quantitative measures of neurological and sudomotor function. SSR was obtained in all but three diabetic patients. The upper limit of normal for the onset latency was 2202 ms and the lower limit for the amplitude ...
متن کاملRelationship of Q-sweat to quantitative sudomotor axon reflex test (QSART) volumes.
Q-Sweat, a commercial quantitative sweat measurement system, is modeled on quantitative sudomotor axon reflex testing (QSART). This study investigated the sweat response using Q-Sweat and Mayo-QSART recordings under identical conditions in healthy normal controls. Ninety-four participants were recruited for this study. All participants underwent randomized bilateral QSART recordings over the fo...
