The natural history of idiopathic autonomic failure

Abstract

This is one of the largest studies on the natural history of a cohort of patients with at least a 5-year history of IAF, showing a percentage of phenoconversion of 32%. We demonstrated that specific clinical and instrumental features entail an increased probability of phenoconversion. These findings could contribute to a better definition of the nature of IAF and to the identification of early markers of phenoconversion.
