Cutaneous silent periods in multiple system atrophy
Original language description
Aim. The cutaneous silent period (CSP) is a spinal inhibitory reflex primarily mediated by A-delta fibers. Prolonged CSPs have been reported in patients with restless legs syndrome (RLS) and idiopathic Parkinson's disease (IPD). Dopaminergic medication normalizes the CSP, concurring with the effect of levodopa on CSPs. To date, CSPs have not been extensively studied in patients with multiple system atrophy (MSA). The purpose of this study was to confirm abnormal CSP findings in a group of MSA patients and to affirm the lack of influence of levodopa on CSPs during long-term treatment. Methods. We investigated 15 patients (4 males, 11 females, age 58-71 years) who fulfilled the diagnostic criteria for possible MSA. Thirteen patients had predominant parkinsonian symptoms (MSA-P), 2 had predominant cerebellar signs (MSA-C). We recorded CSPs in thenar muscles following noxious digit II stimulation. Sixteen healthy volunteers (6 males, 10 females, range 24-56 years) served as control subject
