Pure Autonomic Failure: A Case Report of Recurrent Orthostatic Hypotension [PDF]
Journal of Nepal Medical Association, 2021 Pure autonomic failure is a neurodegenerative disorder affecting the autonomic nervous system which clinically presents with orthostatic hypotension. It is a diagnosis of exclusion after detailed clinical examinations and relevant investigations.

Cardiac sympathetic innervation and vesicular storage in pure autonomic failure [PDF]
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, 2020 Objective Pure autonomic failure (PAF) is a rare disease characterized by neurogenic orthostatic hypotension (nOH), absence of signs of central neurodegeneration, and profound deficiency of the sympathetic neurotransmitter norepinephrine.

A Case of Pure Autonomic Failure Initially Presenting with Hemihypohidrosis: Twelve-Year Follow-Up [PDF]
Case Reports in Neurology, 2022 Although it is generally recognized that pure autonomic failure (PAF) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease selectively involving the autonomic nervous system, its mode of progression remains to be settled.

Pelvic autonomic dysfunction is common in patients with pure autonomic failure. [PDF]
Eur J NeurolAbstractBackground and PurposePure autonomic failure (PAF) presents primarily as cardiovascular autonomic failure and may phenoconvert to other neurodegenerative disorders. However, the involvement of other autonomic functions has been poorly evaluated.

Pure Autonomic Failure-A Localized Alpha Synucleinopathy with a Potential for Conversion to More Extensive Alpha Synucleinopathies. [PDF]
Ann Indian Acad Neurol, 2022 Pure autonomic failure (PAF) is an alpha synucleinopathy with predominant involvement of the autonomic ganglia and peripheral nerves. The hallmark clinical feature is orthostatic hypotension.
