Autonomic nervous system dysfunction in Parkinson’s disease
Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2003Autonomic nervous system (ANS) dysfunction is common in Parkinson's disease (PD), affects 70% to 80% of patients, and causes significant morbidity and discomfort. Autonomic nervous system dysfunction symptoms in PD include sexual dysfunction, swallowing and gastrointestinal disorders, bowel and bladder abnormalities, sleep disturbances, and ...

The autonomic nervous system and inflammatory bowel disease
Autonomic Neuroscience, 2007Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, collectively known as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), are chronic, recurring, inflammatory conditions of the intestine. The precise mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of IBD are not yet clear but they are believed to involve a number of precipitating factors, most notably genetic susceptibility and ...

Autonomic nervous system and arrhythmias in structural heart disease
Autonomic Neuroscience, 2022The autonomic nervous system functions in a fine-tuned manner to dynamically modulate cardiac function during normal physiological state. Autonomic dysregulation in cardiac disease states such as myocardial infarction and heart failure alters this fine balance, which in turn promotes disease progression and arrhythmogenesis.

The importance of the autonomic nervous system in health and disease*
Australian and New Zealand Journal of Medicine, 1997AbstractBaroreceptor control of the circulation is now generally thought to be concerned only with short term buffering of changes in arterial pressure, rather than with long term setting of pressure levels. This paper reviews evidence to the contrary, which suggests that impairment of the baroreflex, either by local changes in the carotid sinus or by ...

Autonomic Nervous System Disorders in Parkinson’s Disease
European Neurology, 2008This paper gives a review on the clinical features of autonomic failure which occur in idiopathic Parkinson’s disease (PD), mainly based on the recent publications, especially from Japan. In 1817, James Parkinson already mentioned bowel and bladder dysfunctions in his original article.

Aging, disease and the autonomic nervous system
Reviews in Clinical Gerontology, 1997Autonomic disorders in old age can be attributed to several main features associated with aging: the intrinsic neurobiological changes that occur with age, degenerative changes in effector organs innervated by autonomic nerves, and secondary involvement of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) in disease processes. As in most areas of clinical geriatrics,

Autonomic nervous system involvement in sickle cell disease
Clinical Hemorheology and Microcirculation, 2018Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a genetic disorder of hemoglobin producing hemoglobin-S (HbS) and resulting in recurrent severe episodes of pain, organ damage and premature death due to vaso- occlusion. Deoxy HbS polymerizes, causing red cells to become rigid and lodge in the microvasculature if they do not escape into larger vessels before this ...

Depression, the Autonomic Nervous System, and Coronary Heart Disease
Psychosomatic Medicine, 2005Depression is a risk factor for medical morbidity and mortality in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD). Dysregulation of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) may explain why depressed patients are at increased risk. Studies of medically well, depressed psychiatric patients have found elevated levels of plasma catecholamines and other markers of ...

Autonomic Nervous System Involvement in Behçet Disease
Annals Of Ophthalmology, 2003We evaluated the autonomic nervous system involvement in Behcet disease by pupillary responses. Pupil cycle times were 969±189 ms and 840±62 ms patient and control groups, respectively. This difference was statistically significant. Behcet disease may affect the autonomic nervous system of the eye and is most probably related to neurologic involvement ...

THE AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM IN GASTROINTESTINAL DISEASE
Journal of the American Medical Association, 1955Our claims as human beings to superiority among the animal species rests entirely on the development of the human brain. The brain, with its associated sense organs, gives to us a unique ability to apprehend and interpret our environment and to adjust our relations to it. At the same time it provides a broad avenue of communication between the external
