Orthostatic Symptoms and Reductions in Cerebral Blood Flow in Long-Haul COVID-19 Patients: Similarities with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Abstract Background and Objectives: Symptoms and hemodynamic findings during orthostatic stress have been reported in both long-haul...

Highlights Long COVID symptoms include fatigue, brain fog, anosmia, dysgeusia, orthostatic intolerance Long COVId symptoms overlap with those of chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) and POTS. Reduced cerebral blood flow is a feature of dysautonomia in ME/CFS and POTS. Stellate ganglion block...

Abstract As part of the non-criteria clinical manifestations, postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS), a multisystem autonomic dysfunction, can co-exist with antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). Several pieces of evidence hint on the autoimmune basis of POTS, and its possible association...

ABSTRACT There is limited literature on the cardiovascular manifestations of post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection (PASC). We aimed to describe the characteristics, diagnostic evaluations, and cardiac diagnoses in patients referred to a cardiovascular disease clinic designed for patients...

Objective: To investigate the influence of comorbidities on the prognosis of pediatric postural tachycardia syndrome (POTS). Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, 275 children with POTS admitted to the Department of Pediatrics at Peking University First Hospital were recruited from 2016...

Introduction SARS-CoV-2 infection which causes the disease COVID-19 is most known for its severe respiratory complications. However, a variety of extrapulmonary effects have since been described, with cardiovascular complications being amongst the most common[1]. Those who recover from the acute...

Orthostatic intolerance syndromes after hematopoietic cell transplantation: clinical characteristics and therapeutic interventions in a single-center experience Abstract Background Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is an established and potentially curative therapeutic option for...

Abstract There is a small yet robust body of literature regarding autonomic dysfunction in Idiopathic hypersomnia (IH) as well as sleep disturbances in Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS). This review aims at summarizing the current literature and highlighting gaps in the current...

Hi all, I can see that this is not the most active part of the forum, but thought I'd ask anyhow.. So, I've been seen by a well renowned cardiologist in London, who, has done oodles of tests to rule in/out POTS/IST etc. and, having done a TTT and CPET (only a single day sadly, but, which I did...

Abstract Background Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is a chronic form of orthostatic intolerance that primarily impacts female patients of childbearing age. The role of sex differences in POTS is not well understood. We sought to identify sex differences in diagnosis, symptoms...

Abstract Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is a disorder epitomized by the story of the blind men and the elephant. Patients may see primary care internists or pediatricians due to fatigue, be referred to neurologists for “spells”, to cardiologists for evaluation of pre-syncope...

Abstract A growing number of patients diagnosed with COVID-19 disease have been reported to have postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) after the acute phase. A 57-year-old female was diagnosed with COVID-19 in December 2020. As a result of her acute illness, she was hospitalized...

Full title: Cognition and Postural Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS): Participant-Identified Challenges and Strategies, and Implications for Intervention Abstract Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) is a condition that affects the autonomic nervous system and can cause both orthostatic...

Abstract Salt supplementation is a common non-pharmacological approach to the management of recurrent orthostatic syncope or presyncope, particularly for patients with vasovagal syncope (VVS) or postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS), although there is limited consensus on the optimal...

In conclusion, meals do matter in the evaluation and treatment of POTS. There are significant postprandial symptoms in POTS patients, which are related to exaggerated postprandial tachycardia. Possible mechanisms include enhanced splanchnic blood pooling, an increased secretion of vasoactive...
