Patients with autonomic failure are characterized by disabling orthostatic hypotension because of impaired sympathetic activity, but even severely affected patients have residual sympathetic tone which can be harnessed for their treatment.

Movement and Man at the end of the Random Walks [PDF]
In this paper, it is presented the well known aspect of non linearity of internal human body structures. Similarity on the basis of the Fractional Brownian Motion from the static ones, as the geometrical fractals like the Intestine and placenta linings, Airways in lungs, Arterial system in kidneys and so on.

Classification of syncope through data analytics [PDF]
Objective: Syncope is a sudden loss of consciousness with loss of postural tone and spontaneous recovery; it is a common condition, albeit one that is challenging to accurately diagnose. Uncertainties about the triggering mechanisms and their underlying pathophysiology have led to various classifications of patients exhibiting this symptom.

Aims Systematically reviewing the literature found orthostatic hypotension (OH) to be associated with an increased risk of incident dementia but limited data were available in those at highest risk, the hypertensive oldest-old. Our aim was to analyse the

Prevalence of function‐limiting late effects in survivors of head and neck cancer
Abstract Background Survivors of head and neck cancer (HNC) are commonly affected by multiple complex and interrelated long‐term and late effects that can adversely affect their function and quality of life. Objective To define the prevalence of neuromuscular, musculoskeletal, visceral, oncologic, and other late effects affecting function and quality ...

Characterization of blood pressure and heart rate oscillations of POTS patients via uniform phase empirical mode decomposition [PDF]
Objective: Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) is associated with the onset of tachycardia upon postural change. The current diagnosis involves the measurement of heart rate (HR) and blood pressure (BP) during head-up tilt (HUT) or active standing test.
