Abstract
The sympathetic skin response was studied in 21 patients with autoimmune vitiligo or hypothyroidism or both. No response to stimulation was found in 6 patients, but 4 with both diseases showed abnormal results. Sympathetic skin response is useful in evaluating sudomotor activity of the autonomic nervous system, and it is concluded that patients with autoimmune vitiligo, autoimmune hypothyroidism and especially those with both diseases show evidence of sudomotor dysfunction.Entities:
