Fatigue is an important symptom of a disturbed circadian rhythm. To date, no studies of circadian rhythms in patients with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) have been published. The objectives of the study were to study rhythms of heart rate and systolic and diastolic blood pressure in patients with
Corticosteroid-binding globulin is a 383-amino acid glycoprotein that serves a hormone transport role and may have functions related to the stress response and inflammation. We describe a 39-member Italian-Australian family with a novel complete loss of function (null) mutation of the
OBJECTIVE
To compare the clinical symptoms and response evoked by upright tilt-table testing in healthy individuals and in a sample of those satisfying strict criteria for chronic fatigue syndrome.
METHODS
Case-comparison study with mean (SD) follow-up of 24 (5) weeks.
METHODS
Tertiary care
The relationship between orthostatic hypotension and chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) has been reported previously. To study the pathogenesis and management of delayed orthostatic hypotension in patients with CFS, a case comparison study with follow-up of 8 weeks has been designed. A group of 78
BACKGROUND
Orthostatic hypotension during upright tilt is an important physical disorder in patients with chronic fatigue syndrome. We have tested its occurrence during prolonged standing, whether it is correctable, and whether reduced circulating erythrocyte volume is present.
METHODS
Fifteen
BACKGROUND
Transfusion guidelines recommend that clinicians assess patients for signs and symptoms of anemia before the transfusion of RBCs. However, studies of signs and symptoms associated with acute isovolemic anemia are limited. The objective of this study was to determine whether acute
Nivolumab, a new immune checkpoint inhibitor that has been found to improve outcomes for patients with some advanced cancers, is being increasingly used. Immune checkpoint inhibitors can cause immune-related adverse events, including dermatitis, enterocolitis, hepatitis and hypophysitis, but adrenal
Although several investigations on mitral valve prolapse syndrome (MVPS) have been performed, clinical symptoms of this syndrome are not yet clarified. Atypical chest pain, palpitations, fatigue, dyspnea and anxiety are the most frequent symptoms associated with this syndrome. However, dizziness and
Chronic fatigue disorders are characterized by a subjectively defined group of symptoms such as chronic fatigue, mental confusion, exertional malaise, weight changes, and/or diffuse multi-joint pains. Significant clinical overlap exists between chronic fatigue disorders and the syndrome of serum
Orthostatic hypotension is very common in the elderly. It increases morbidity and is an independant predictor of all cause mortality. It is defined as a fall in systolic blood pressure greater than 20 mm Hg or a fall in diastolic blood pressure greater than 10 mm Hg within 3 minutes of standing.
OBJECTIVE
Chronic fatigue syndrome has been associated with decreased function of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis. Although neurally mediated hypotension occurs more frequently in patients with chronic fatigue syndrome than in controls, attempts to alleviate symptoms by administration of
Older people with low blood pressure are more likely to suffer from fatigue, anorexia, crying spells and depressed moods, a recent study has revealed.
Paraneoplastic neuropathies associated with leukemia are rare, and early diagnosis and treatment are crucial due to the potential for irreversible neurological deficits and delay in treatment of the leukemia. This is the first report to describe severe paraneoplastic orthostatic hypotension which
An 84-year-old woman presented with severe postural hypotension. Further assessment revealed weight loss, fatigue and fever at night. On examination, she had bilateral skin lesions on the inner thighs and skin biopsy revealed intravascular high grade B cell lymphoma. This was successfully treated
We are the first to report clinical characteristics and circulatory and catecholamine responses to postural change in 44 children with instantaneous orthostatic hypotension (INOH). The symptoms include chronic fatigue, orthostatic dizziness, weakness, sleep disturbance, syncope or near syncope,
