Purpose: The dynamic variance of cerebral blood flow velocity (CBFV), monitored by transcranial doppler(TCD), can reveal the integrated effects of cardio-cerebral vascular autoregulation. We investigated the characteristics of CBFV curve during active standing in multiple system atrophy (MSA), Parkinson's disease (PD) and healthy volunteers.Methods: The CBFV curve of middle cerebral arteries was recorded using TCD in 22 patients with probable MSA: 20 PD patients and 20 volunteers matched for age. All individuals started in a supine posture, followed by abrupt standing for 2 min before returning to supine. The features of CBFV curve were compared among the groups.Results: In the healthy volunteers, the CBFV decreased following standing up but quickly rebounded and reached the same or greater level as the supine baseline. Afterwards, the CBFV decreased abruptly to a sustained level, lower than the supine baseline, forming a spike wave that appeared in CBFV curve. This spike wave was present in 5/22 of MSA, significantly less than PD patients (18/20) and volunteers (20120) (P
