Abstract

For study of the sweat secretion in 27 patients suffered by local hyperhidrosis method of colorimetric determination of functioning sudoriferous glands number and a Minor's tests were used. The confines and intensity of sweat secretion have been determined. Study was carried out before and during the treatment as well as at the moment of clinical recovery. Revealing of vegetative syndromes was provided by Vein's inquirer. In patients with hyperhidrosis vegetative abnormalities were combined with asthenic disorders. Duration of illness had impact on frequency and character of neurasthenic syndrome manifestation. Offered scheme of local hyperhidrosis treatment with staged use of belladonna and antihistaminic preparation "hydroxyzine" (having antimuscarinic action) could be characterized as a well endurable and significantly ameliorative of patient's clinical status.

How strong is the evidence?

Evidence Hub reads this as a randomized trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 3 of 5 (Moderate · trial / cohort / secondary analysis). Trials without a large randomized design, cohorts and secondary analyses give moderate evidence. Reported size: 27 participants or records.

How the five levels of evidence work. The level is assigned automatically from the abstract and can be wrong, so check the paper.
