AB - <p>The two groups of leprosy patients were compared with normal for the evaluation of the functional status of the autonomic nervous system, with the aid of several established procedures. Our findings reveal that in the leprosy patients the adrenergic system is hypo-functional as compared to the cholinergic. Further, in maculoanaesthetic group, there appears to be a physiological Dale's vasomoter reversal when adrenaline was used.</p>
