Autoimmune postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, 2018 AbstractThe aim of this study was to evaluate the association between postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) and circulating antiganglionic acetylcholine receptor (gAChR) antibodies. We reviewed clinical assessments of Japanese patients with POTS, and determined the presence of gAChR antibodies in serum samples from those patients. Luciferase

Evaluation and management of orthostatic headache in hypermobility disorders
Frontiers in Neurology, 2023 Headache is a frequent symptom among patients with hypermobility spectrum disorders. This mini review focuses specifically on a challenging aspect of headache evaluation in all patients, but especially those with hypermobility – the orthostatic headache.

Reversible postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome
World Journal of Clinical Cases, 2015 Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is a relatively rare syndrome recognised since 1940. It is a heterogenous condition with orthostatic intolerance due to dysautonomia and is characterised by rise in heart rate above 30 bpm from base line or to more than 120 bpm within 5-10 min of standing with or without change in blood pressure which ...

Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome: A respiratory disorder?
Current Research in Physiology, 2021 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

Postural Tachycardia Syndrome: Beyond Orthostatic Intolerance [PDF]
Current Neurology and Neuroscience Reports, 2015 Postural tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is a form of chronic orthostatic intolerance for which the hallmark physiological trait is an excessive increase in heart rate with assumption of upright posture. The orthostatic tachycardia occurs in the absence of orthostatic hypotension and is associated with a >6-month history of symptoms that are relieved by ...
