The distinction of multiple system atrophy (MSA) from Parkinson's disease (PD) can be difficult, especially early in the disease. In MSA degeneration of sacral anterior horn cells (Onuf's nucleus) results in denervation-reinnervation of anal and urethral sphincter muscles, which can be recognized as
The clonidine-growth hormone test (CGHT) has been proposed as a means of differentiating multiple system atrophy (MSA) from idiopathic Parkinson's disease (PD). However, it is controversial whether the CGHT is valid. We sought to confirm the validity of the CGHT and to compare the diagnostic accurac
Electromyographic studies of the external anal sphincter muscle have received increasing attention in the differential diagnosis of patients with parkinsonism. Based on the fact that the external anal sphincter muscle is partly innervated by fibers that originate in Onuf's nucleus in the segments S2
