Summary
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome: interactions between the autonomic nervous system, immune system and HPA axis.

Interactions between the ANS, immune system and HPA axis in CFS. Edge shade is related to MI between nodes. Darker edges indicate a stronger link. Abbreviations
 * AUCg- Area under the curve with respect to ground
 * BEI- Baroreflex effectiveness index
 * BPV- Blood pressure variability
 * CFQ- Total Cognitive Failures Questionnaire score
 * DEX10- in vitro glucocorticoid receptor response to 10% dexamethasone solution
 * DEX100- in vitro glucocorticoid receptor response to 100% dexamethasone solution
 * EF- Ejection fraction
 * HRV- Heart rate variability
 * LPS- in vitro glucocorticoid receptor response to lipopolysaccharide
 * MASS- End diastolic wall mass, Null, in vitro glucocorticoid receptor response without stimulation
 * SBPa- Mean systolic blood pressure during active stand
 * SV- Stroke volume
