Systolic blood pressure, mean R-R interval and R-R interval variance were studied in patients with Parkinson''s disease, spinocerebellar degeneration and Shy-Drager syndrome. Postural hypotension correlated with anhidrosis (P < 0.05), indicating sympathetic vasomotor dysfunction. Reduction of R-R interval variance while resting supine correlated with bladder-bowel dysfunction (P < 0.05), indicating parasympathetic impairment. Reduction of R-R interval variance after postural changes correlated with constipation (P < 0.005), postural hypotension (P < 0.05) and anhidrosis (P < 0.05), indicating both parasympathetic and sympathetic involvement. Dynamic study of the R-R interval provides objective information about autonomic function in neurologic disease.
