 note = {To develop a non-invasive function test of the autonomic nervous system, I studied changes of finger skin temperature during a cooling test in 45 patients with diabetes mellitus by infrared thermography. I calculated recovery coefficient by fitting the experimental equation to data, and assessed core-shell temperature gradient by subtracting finger skin temperature from body temperature. Also I measured plasma norepinephrine concentration in other 16 diabetic patients. The temperature gradient was negatively correlated with the recovery coefficient (p less than 0.05) and positively correlated with plasma norepinephrine concentration (p less than 0.05). These results showed that the temperature gradient was indicative for the control of finger blood flow by sympathetic vasoconstrictor nerves. In conclusion, measurement of finger skin temperature by infrared thermography can provide a function test of the autonomic nervous system. It is non-invasive and has an advantage of obtaining highly accurate data on real time to continuously follow changes of the sympathetic nervous activities., 4, KJ00004311165},
