Autonomic Involvement in Subacute and Chronic Immune-Mediated Neuropathies

الملخص EN

Autonomic function can be impaired in many disorders in which sympathetic, parasympathetic, and enteric arms of the autonomic nervous system are affected.

Signs and symptoms of autonomic involvement are related to impairment of cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, urogenital, thermoregulatory, sudomotor, and pupillomotor autonomic functions.

Availability of noninvasive, sensitive, and reproducible tests can help to recognize these disorders and to better understand specific mechanisms of some, potentially treatable, immune-mediated autonomic neuropathies.

This paper describes autonomic involvement in immune-mediated neuropathies with a subacute or chronic course.
