Electronystagmography was used to record the appearance or alteration of nystagmus after raising the body temperature by a heat cradle. Nystagmus was increased or provoked in 13 out of 15 patients with clinically proved multiple sclerosis, in eight out of 12 suspected cases, but in no normal controls. No positive results were obtained in 12 patients with other neurological diseases, even when nystagmus was part of the clinical picutre. The technique is simple to use and may have a role in the diagnosis of multiple sclerosis.
通过热摇篮升高体温后，用眼震电图记录眼球震颤的出现或变化。在15例临床确诊的多发性硬化症患者中，13例出现眼球震颤增强或被诱发；在12例疑似病例中，8例出现这种情况；但在正常对照组中未出现。12例患有其他神经系统疾病的患者未得到阳性结果，即使眼球震颤是临床症状的一部分。该技术使用简单，可能在多发性硬化症的诊断中发挥作用。
