Motor assessment of patients with multiple system atrophy: underuse of the Unified Multiple System Atrophy Rating Scale (UMSARS)
ConclusionsAlthough higher in observational studies, the misuse of PD and ATX-related scales in MSA patients persists in prospective (planned) trials. Reasons for that must be addressed. (Source: Clinical Autonomic Research)

Baroreflex-sympathoneural without baroreflex-cardiovagal failure in neurogenic orthostatic hypotension
We describe a patient with neurogenic orthostatic hypotension (nOH) after brainstem neurosurgery in whom baroreflex-cardiovagal function was normal despite baroreflex-sympathoneural failure. We also cite other conditions entailing differential alterations in the two efferent limbs of the baroreflex. Any condition involving nOH from selective loss of sympathetic noradrenergic innervation, interference with sympathetic pre-ganglionic transmission in the thoracolumbar spinal cord, sympathectomies, or attenuated intra-neuronal synthesis, storage, or release of norepinephrine would be expected to manifest with selective baroref...

Baroreflex sensitivity is associated with markers of hippocampal gliosis and dysmyelination in patients with psychosis
ConclusionsAbnormal baroreflex sensitivity is common in participants with psychosis and is associated with MRS markers of hippocampal pathology. Future longitudinal studies are needed to examine causality. (Source: Clinical Autonomic Research)

Orthostatic hypotension in dementia with Lewy bodies: a meta-analysis of prospective studies
ConclusionDLB increased the risk of OH by 3.62- to 7.71-fold compared to healthy controls. Therefore, it will be useful to evaluate postural blood pressure changes in the follow-up and treatment of patients with DLB. (Source: Clinical Autonomic Research)

Creating a data dictionary for pediatric autonomic disorders
ConclusionCreation of this data dictionary becomes the foundation of future clinical care and investigative research in pediatric autonomic disorders, and can be used as a building block for a subsequent adult autonomic data dictionary. (Source: Clinical Autonomic Research)
