Title: QSART in idiopathic pure sudomotor failure. Author: Nakazato Y, Tamura N, Ohkuma A, Yoshimaru K, Shimazu K. Journal: Clin Auton Res; 2005 Dec; 15(6):414-6. PubMed ID: 16362546. Abstract: QSART (quantitative sudomotor axon reflex testing) was performed in a patient with idiopathic pure sudomotor failure. Generalized reduction in thermoregulatory sweating and complete absence of axon reflex sweating were observed, suggesting a deficit of sweat gland cholinergic synaptic transmission or receptors. QSART responded promptly to treatment. Putative pathophysiological mechanisms are discussed.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
