ABSTRACT
This study aimed to estimate the plasma level of both adrenaline and noradrenaline in children with Reye's syndrome. Plasma adrenaline and noradrenaline was assayed in eleven children [seven males and four females with age ranged between two years and eleven years] with biopsy proven Reye's syndrome. The median age at which children were presented was 5.8 years. The mean adrenaline level was found to be 611.7 pg/ml compared with 83 pg/ml for the controls. The mean noradrenaline level was 1538.9 pg/ml compared with 372.3 pg/ml for the controls. This study revealed that both adrenaline and noradrenaline increased in children with Reye's syndrome and discussed the cause of the these changes
