Cooccurrence of Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome with Two Different Clinical Entities
Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is an abnormal heart rate response to a positional change. Several potential mechanisms for pathophysiology of POTS are defined. This syndrome can coexist with different clinical situations. In our report,

What is the best approach to the evaluation of resting tachycardia for an adult? [PDF]
The best evidence about the diagnostic evaluation of resting tachycardias in adults is currently outlined by practice guidelines. 1 Initial evaluation includes clinical history, physical examination, and 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG).

Insights into the clinical management of the syndrome of supine hypertension--orthostatic hypotension (SH-OH): the Irish Longitudinal Study on Ageing (TILDA). [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Our previously proposed morphological classification of orthostatic hypotension (MOH) is an approach to the definition of three typical orthostatic hemodynamic patterns using non-invasive beat-to-beat monitoring.

Neuronal and hormonal perturbations in postural tachycardia syndrome
The Postural Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) is the most common disorder seen in autonomic clinics. Cardinal hemodynamic feature of this chronic and debilitating disorder of orthostatic tolerance is an exaggerated orthostatic tachycardia (≥30 bpm increase in

Idiopathic orthostatic hypotension: Recent data (eleven cases) and review of the literature [PDF]
Eight cases of Shy-Drager syndrome and three of Bradbury-Eggleston idiopathic orthostatic hypotension were examined. In all cases, examination of circulatory reflexes showed major dysfunction of the sympathetic vasoconstrictor system.

ABSTRACT Gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms are common in CHARGE syndrome, but their frequency and characteristics remain poorly documented due to the complex nature of CHARGE syndrome. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of GI issues in CHARGE syndrome and their impact on quality of life (QoL).

Sudomotor and cardiovascular dysfunction in patients with early untreated Parkinson's disease. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: According to Braak staging of Parkinson's disease (PD), detection of autonomic dysfunction would help with early diagnosis of PD. OBJECTIVE: To determine whether the autonomic nervous system is involved in the early stage of PD, we evaluated ...
