What is Infectious Diseases Causing Autonomic Dysfunction about?
## Objectives: To review infectious diseases that may cause autonomic dysfunction. ## Methods: Review of published papers indexed in medline/embase. ## Results: Autonomic dysfunction has been reported in retrovirus (human immunodeficiency virus (hiv), human t-lymphotropic virus), herpes viruses, flavivirus, enterovirus 71 and lyssavirus infections. autonomic dysfunction is relatively common in hiv-infected patients and heart rate variability is reduced even in early stages of infection. orthostatic hypotension, urinary dysfunction and hypohidrosis have been described in tropical spastic paraparesis patients. varicella zoster reactivation from autonomic ganglia may be involved in visceral disease and chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction. autonomic and peripheral nervous system dysfunction may happen in acute tick-borne encephalitis virus infections. hydrophobia, hypersalivation, dyspnea, photophobia, and piloerection are frequently observed in human rabies. autonomic dysfunction and vagal denervation is common in chagas disease. neuronal depopulation occurs mainly in chagasic heart disease and myenteric plexus, and megacolon, megaesophagus and cardiomyopathy are common complication
