Abstract Background and aim Stridor and sleep apnea syndrome (SAS) are common in multiple system atrophy (MSA). Retrospective cohort studies have yielded conflicting results regarding the consequences of stridor and SAS on the disease course. This study aimed to assess the prognostic significance of stridor and SAS, as well as the potential survival ...
