Sudomotor sympathetic hypofunction in Down's syndrome.
General sympathetic dysfunction has been proposed as an explanation for the inability to reach normal heightened attention in Down's syndrome (DS). The present study on 15 DS subjects (group average age +/- SD, 14.3 +/- 3.6 years; 11 males) and in an equal number of age- and gender-matched normal subjects (NS), evaluated activity in different subdivisions of the sympathetic nervous system. DS s...
متن کاملThoracoscopic sympathetic surgery for hand sweating.
Recently, thoracoscopic surgery has been shown to be effective for the relief of hand sweating. Although it is not fatal if left untreated, the treatment aim is to improve the quality of daily life. Therefore, it is important to understand the complaints of the patient, and provide an adequate explanation regarding postoperative sequelae. Surgeons should also recognize that thoracoscopic surger...
متن کاملIdiopathic pure sudomotor failure responding to oral antihistamine with sweating activities.
Idiopathic pure sudomotor failure (IPSF) is characterised by diminished sweating with sudomotor stimuli, causes hyperthermia, dry skin, and itch or tingling of the skin surface, and severely impairs patients' quality of life. The treatment options for IPSF are limited. Systemic corti-costeroid has been used (1, 2), but it is not consistently effective (3). Here, we present 2 cases of patients w...
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 کاملThe location of descending fibres to sympathetic preganglionic vasomotor and sudomotor neurons in man.
Evidence is given of the location in the spinal cord of man of the central sympathetic fibres supplying vasomotor and sudomotor neurons of the body caudal to the head and neck. The evidence is based on anterolateral cordotomies. The fibres lie within the medial part of the equatorial plane, extending from the base of the posterior horn and the lateral horn across the medial half of the white ma...
