Advances detailed include the realization that some chronic autonomic disorders may be associated with transmissable agents, that profound autonomic dysfunction may be one limiting factor to human space exploration and that autonomic function tests can be standardized and can give meaningful results that are helpful in the management of patients with autonomic failure.
