“…Moreover, SSR are evoked by impulses that originate in a different area to which the response is produced. For example, electrical pulses over the sternal skin can be used to elicit SSR in the palms [19], which highlight the complexity of the internal neuronal network involving polysynaptic relays and connections between different vertical levels along the neuraxis and in both sides of the human body [11]. It is, therefore, not surprising that measurement of a SSR depends on the site and the type of stimulus used to initiate the reflex.…”

“…The patients were questioned regarding the following autonomic symptoms: excessive sweating, feeling cold, and color change of the feet. Again, 1 point was awarded for the presence of each symptom, and summed to provide the sympathetic system score (SSS) 9,13-15. The maximum scores for TSS, TFS, and SSS were 6, 14, and 3, respectively.…”

“…The range of the parameters reported in the literature in CTS patients and in healthy controls includes amplitudes from 1 to 7 mV and latencies from 1.4 to 3 ms (Caccia et al, 1993;Kanzato et al, 2000;Kiylioglu et al, 2005;Mondelli et al, 2000;Reddeppa et al, 2000;Sener et al, 2000). In our study, the range of amplitudes in affected hands was 0.1-9.6 mV, in unaffected 0.1-9.8 mV, the area in affected hands 0.2-10.5 mVms, and in unaffected hands 0.4-10.6 mVms.…”

“…There have been several sympathetic skin response studies in CTS patients and their results are not consistent: reduced or normal sympathetic activity was reported in the majority (Caccia et al, 1993;Kanzato et al, 2000;Mondelli et al, 2000;Reddeppa et al, 2000;Sener et al, 2000). Vasomotor dysfunction in digital arteries was found in CTS patients in two studies, which employed the Doppler technique (Galea et al, 2006;Wilder-Smith et al, 2003).…”
