Figure 4.
Sympathetic system is ineffective in worsening multiple sclerosis (MS). Active not relapsing patients showed a higher increase of low frequency power (LFnu) after head-up tilt test (HUTT) with respect to relapsing subjects (a), despite comparable heart rate variability parameters at rest (b). Incomplete recovery from relapse was associated with lower LFnu increase after HUTT (c). LF/HF: low frequency/high frequency ratio. *P < 0.05 with respect to healthy controls; #P < 0.05 with respect to active not relapsing MS.
