Abstract

Objectives: This study was planned to perform an electroneuromyographic evaluation of the sympathetic skin response (SSR) and F wave in order to determine whether there is an autonomic dysfunction in fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS). Patients and methods: Thirty-eight patients (1 male, 37 females; mean age 40.6±9.6; range 22 to 60 years) who were admitted to our clinic between March 2005 and March 2006 and diagnosed with FMS and 30 healthy controls (1 male, 29 females; mean age 39.5±9.0 years; range 22 to 55 years) were enrolled in this study. After clinical examination, all patients were evaluated in the electroneuromyography (ENMG) laboratory with respect to SSR and F wave. The F wave was measured in both median and ulnar nerves. The SSR was evaluated in the median nerve. Patients were assessed with respect to the mean value of the F wave distal latency, the distal latency for SSR and the amplitude values. All patients were also evaluated for pain (Visual analogue scale, VAS), number of tender points (NTP), depression (Beck depression inventory, BDI) and functional capacity (fibromyalgia impact questionnaire, FIQ). Results: No statistically significant difference was found in the distal latency values of the F wave between the groups (p>0.05). Fibromyalgia syndrome patients were found to have significantly higher SSR amplitude values and lower latency values for both sides when compared with controls (p<0.05). No statistically significant correlation was found between the SSR (amplitude and latency), and F wave results and the VAS, BDI, FIQ and NTP scores in the patients with FMS (p>0.05). Conclusion: Our results support that, in the sympathetic nervous system of the patients with FMS, there is an alteration that shows the presence of autonomic dysfunction.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmada, fibromiyalji sendromu (FMS)'nda otonomik disfonksiyon mevcut olup olmadığının belirlenmesi amacıyla sempatik deri yanıtı (SDY) ve F dalgasının elektronöromiyografik incelenmesi planlandı.Hastalar ve yöntemler: Mart 2005 - Mart 2006 tarihleri arasında kliniğimize başvuran ve fibromiyalji sendromu tanısı konulan 38 hasta (1 erkek, 37 kadın; ort. yaş 40.6±9.6 yıl; dağılım 22-60 yıl) ve 30 sağlıklı kontrol (1 erkek, 29 kadın; ort. yaş 39.5±9.0 yıl; dağılım 22-55 yıl) çalışmaya dahil edildi. Klinik inceleme sonrasında tüm hastalar elektronöromiyografi (ENMG) laboratuvarında SDY ve F dalgası açısından değerlendirildi. F dalgası hem median hem de ulnar sinirden ölçüldü. Sempatik deri yanıtı median sinirden değerlendirildi. Hastalar F dalga distal latans ortalaması, SDY distal latans değeri ve amplitüd değerleri açısından değerlendirildi. Tüm hastalar ağrı (görsel analog skalası, GAS), hassas nokta sayısı (HNS), depresyon (Beck depresyon envanteri, BDE) ve fonksiyonel kapasite (fibromiyalji etkisi anketi, FEA) açısından da değerlendirildi.Bulgular: Gruplar arasında F dalgası distal latans değerleri açısından istatistiksel olarak anlamlı herhangi bir fark bulunmadı (p>0.05). Kontrol grubu ile karşılaştırıldığında FMS'li hastaların her iki taraftada daha yüksek SDY amplitüdü değerlerine ve daha düşük latans değerlerine sahip olduğu tespit edildi (p 0.05).Sonuç: Sonuçlarımız FMS'li hastaların sempatik sinir sisteminde otonom disfonksiyonu gösteren bir değişiklik olduğunu desteklemektedir.
