Abstract
There is denervation supersensitivity in PD patients that is, however, insufficient to shift the dose-response curve to the left. The excessive pressor responses to both tyramine and phenylephrine in MSA are due to baroreflex failure. We conclude that this diagnostic approach lacks sufficient sensitivity to differentiate PD and MSA.
