Thermal Disparity among Fingers and Its Amelioration by CO2-Water Bathing in Connective Tissue Disease Patients

Objective. Correlation between a low finger temperature and thermal disparity among fingers was studied in connective tissue disease (CTD) patients. Whether the thermal disparity may be ameliorated by hand immersion in a warm carbon dioxide- (CO2-) water bath was analyzed. Methods. CTD patients with...
