Tilt-table testing: down but not out [PDF]
Clin. Pract. (2014) 11(3), 265–268 ISSN 2044-9038 part of Syncope is very common, with the overall incidence for first syncope being 6.2 per 1000 patient years, increasing to 20 in females aged over 80 years [1]. Vasovagal syncope (VVS) is by far the most common cause, explaining over 20% of cases, with an underlying cardiac cause in 10% of cases and ...

Tilt table testing in the diagnosis of unexplained syncope [PDF]
While the investigation of the physiological and pathophysiological effects of orthostatic stress induced by head-up tilt table testing in humans began more than 50 years ago,1 it was not until 1986 that the utility of tilt testing in the diagnosis of unexplained syncope was demonstrated.2 In the absence of a `gold-standard' diagnostic test for ...

Does a Role Exist for Tilting-Guided Therapy in the Management of Neurocardiogenic Syncope?
PURPOSE: Upright tilt-table testing (UTT) is an useful method for identifying patients with neurocardiogenic syncope, but its role in the evaluation of therapeutic efficacy is controversial.

Design study of time-preserving grating monochromators for ultrashort pulses in the extreme-ultraviolet and soft X-rays [PDF]
The design of grating-based instruments to handle and condition coherent ultrafast pulses in the extreme-ultraviolet is discussed. The main application of such instruments is the monochromatization of high-order laser harmonics and free-electron-laser ...

Tilt table testing in neurology and clinical neurophysiology
Reflex syncope is responsible for 1-6% of hospital admissions and the economic burden of syncope is huge. A considerable part of these high costs is still spent on tests that are not indicated. Till now few neurologists have taken an interest in syncope and tilt table testing (TTT).
