Autonomic Nervous System Diseases
British Journal of Nutrition (104)10 2010
Abstract
We tested the hypothesis that postprandial IS is compromised in high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obesity. Sprague-Dawley rats were fed a standard diet (STD, n 10), 1-week HFD (n 9) or 4-week HFD (n 8). IS was tested in postprandial state using the rapid IS test (RIST) before and after the blockade of the...

Abstract
Epilepsy and seizures can have a dramatic effect on the autonomic nervous system by involvement of the central autonomic control centers. The peri-ictal changes can lead to short-term alteration of cardiac functions in patients with seizures, and are partially hemispheric specific. Changes in heart...

Abstract
Abstract
We studied 23 patients with PIFS and 25 healthy matched control subjects. A heartbeat discrimination task and a pressure pain threshold test were used to assess interoceptive sensitivity. Cardiac response was assessed over a 4-min Stroop task. PIFS was associated with higher accuracy in heartbeat di...

Abstract
There are three diseases classified as primary autonomic failure (PAF), multiple system atrophy, Parkinson's disease, pure autonomic failure. Compensatory mechanisms preventing from decrease in blood pressure are inefficient in PAF. Among half of the patients with PAF occur orthostatic hypotension (...

Abstract
Dramatic advances have been made in the treatment of motor dysfunction in both the early and late phases of Parkinson disease. Effective therapies for the nonmotor symptoms of this disease, however, remain a major unmet clinical need. A recent study has highlighted the dearth of clinical trials for...

Abstract
Cardiac autonomic function plays a crucial role in health and disease, with abnormalities both reflecting the severity of the disease and contributing specifically to clinical deterioration and poor prognosis. Radiotracer analogs of the sympathetic mediator norepinephrine have been investigated exte...

Although extrapyramidal diseases are commonly thought to solely affect the (extrapyramidal) motor system, non-motor symptoms such as behavioural abnormalities, dysautonomia, sleep disturbances and sensory dysfunctions are also frequently observed. Autonomic dysfunction as an important clinical compo...

Abstract
Laboratories able to test autonomic function are increasingly available and rely on batteries of well-accepted, noninvasive tests. Tests of parasympathetic cardiovagal, sympathetic vasoconstriction, and sudomotor (sweating) function are most commonly employed. Common examples include heart rate vari...

Abstract
We describe the case of a 33 year old male patient with severe orthostatic hypotension, which was at times even in upright (sitting) position not tolerated, thus leading to complete immobilisation. The diagnostic measurements pointed to the group of primary autonomic degenerative disorders, the so-c...

Simple bedside tests can detect CAN. HRV and SBS provide additional elements on CAN severity. Diabetes duration did not discriminate sufficiently patients with CAN. The association with retinopathy is in favor of the role of poor glycemic control in CAN development. This study shows the interest of...

TTD was significantly associated with total spectrum power (TP) (r=0.55, P=0.001) and high frequency (HF power) (r=0.44, P=0.010) of HRV measurement. The accuracy of within-one-week TTD prediction was 67% for TP and HF power. The accuracy of within-two-week TTD prediction was 82% for TP and 73% for...

We ascertained whether HRV predicts SUDEP in chronic epilepsy using a case-control design and investigated parameters of inter-ictal HRV in 14 patients (7 had died from SUDEP). No HRV parameter was associated with SUDEP. Thus, although altered HRV might be involved in SUDEP, HRV parameters are not c...
