Summary[edit | edit source]

Title: (or description)[edit | edit source]

Cerebral blood flow (blood flow to the brain) decreases in between the lying down position and a sitting position in healthy controls, in severe ME/CFS patients without orthostatic intolerance in daily life, and in severe ME/CFS patients with orthostatic intolerance in daily life.
Key
OI: orthostatic intolerance; w/o: without; ME/CFS: myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome; p-values under 0.05 are generally considered clinically significant. Results are presented as percentage cerebral blood flow decrease (standard deviation).

cerebral blood flow (CBF) - the amount of blood that goes through the arterial tree in the brain in a given amount of time

orthostatic intolerance (OI) - The development of symptoms when standing upright, where symptoms are relieved upon reclining. Patients with orthostatic intolerance have trouble remaining upright for more than a few seconds or a few minutes, depending upon severity. In severe orthostatic intolerance, patients may not be able to sit upright in bed. Orthostatic intolerance is often a sign of dysautonomia. There are different types of orthostatic intolerance, including postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS).
