Cerebral Oximetry in Syncope and Syndromes of Orthostatic Intolerance [PDF]
Cerebral autoregulation is crucial for maintaining cerebral blood flow and perfusion. In recent years, the importance of cerebral oxygenation in syncope and orthostatic intolerance (OI) has received increased attention. Cerebral tissue oxygenation can be

Orthostatic Intolerance in Older Persons: Etiology and Countermeasures [PDF]
Orthostatic challenge produced by upright posture may lead to syncope if the cardiovascular system is unable to maintain adequate brain perfusion. This review outlines orthostatic intolerance related to the aging process, long-term bedrest confinement ...

Syndromes of orthostatic intolerance: a hidden danger [PDF]
AbstractOrthostatic hypotension (OH) is a relatively common heterogenous and multifactorial disorder, traditionally classified as neurogenic (less common but often more severe) or nonneurogenic (more common, with no direct signs of autonomic nervous system disease).

Pediatric Disorders of Orthostatic Intolerance [PDF]
Orthostatic intolerance (OI), having difficulty tolerating an upright posture because of symptoms or signs that abate when returned to supine, is common in pediatrics. For example, ∼40% of people faint during their lives, half of whom faint during adolescence, and the peak age for first faint is 15 years.

Background: Head-up tilt (HUT) test is an important tool in establishing the cause of past syncope. As postural tachycardia is associated with orthostatic intolerance, we hypothesise that heart rate (HR) increase during the early phase of HUT can be used

Validation of the Chinese orthostatic discriminant and Severity Scale (ODSS) for detection of orthostatic intolerance syndrome [PDF]
Background: Orthostatic intolerance (OI) is the inability to tolerate orthostatic stress during any postural change. The etiology of OI varies, and methods to obtain a specific diagnosis and plan appropriate treatment are important.

Circulating Autoantibodies Against Vasoactive Biomarkers Related to Orthostatic Intolerance in Long COVID Patients Compared to No-Long-COVID Populations: A Case-Control Study [PDF]
Endothelial dysfunction mediated by elevated levels of autoantibodies against vasoactive peptides occurring after COVID-19 infection is proposed as a possible pathomechanism for orthostatic intolerance in long COVID patients.

Autoimmune Antibodies in Orthostatic Intolerance Syndromes. [PDF]
Orthostatic intolerance (OI) is defined as the development of characteristic symptoms while standing, which significantly improve by recumbency. The most common forms are vasovagal syncope (VVS), orthostatic hypotension, and postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS).
