\Gland structure\Sweat gland structure

\An anatomical structure that consists of the maximal set of organ parts so connected to one another that together they constitute a self-contained unit of macroscopic anatomy, distinct both morphologically and functionally from other such units. Together with other organs, an organ constitutes an organ system or a body part. An organ is divisible into organ parts but not organs (examples: femur, biceps, liver, heart, aorta, sciatic nerve, ovary).\Skin structure\Skin appendage structure (body structure)\Sweat gland structure

Harlequin syndrome (HSD) is an autonomic disorder occurring at any age and characterised by unilateral flushing and sweating, involving the face and sometimes arm and chest, in condition of thermal, exercise or emotional stress without sympathetic ocular manifestations. However, tonic pupils, parasympathetic oculomotor lesion and pre- or postganglionic sudomotor sympathetic deficit can rarely occur.

Hypohidrosis-enamel hypoplasia-palmoplantar keratoderma-intellectual disability syndrome is a rare, genetic, syndromic intellectual disability disorder characterised by severe intellectual disability with significant speech and language impairment, hypohidrosis (often resulting in hyperthermia) with normal sweat gland appearance, tooth enamel hypoplasia, palmoplantar hyperkeratosis and a high frequency of acquired microcephaly. Mild facial dysmorphism, including lateral flaring of the eyebrows, broad nasal tip, and thick vermilion border, may also be observed.
