Abstract
Cerebral blood flow (CBF) is vital for delivering oxygen and nutrients to the brain. Many forms of orthostatic intolerance (OI) involve impaired regulation of CBF in the upright posture, which results in disabling symptoms that decrease quality of life.
Because CBF is not easy to...

Short Communication - Autonomic Neuroscience
The autonomic reflex screen (ARS) has been established as an important clinical tool in the evaluation and diagnosis of autonomic disorders ( Low, 2003 )...
Highlights
•
Cerebral blood flow in ME/CFS patients remains abnormal 5 minutes post-tilt test.
•
Post cerebral blood flow abnormalities do not depend on hemodynamic results and on end-tidal carbon dioxide pressures during the tilt-test.
•
Post cerebral blood flow abnormalities are most severe...
Abstract
This review recapitulates the head-up tilt test, which is commonly used for evaluation of orthostatic syndromes and dysautonomia.
Tilt test evaluates autonomic system responses to orthostatic stress.
Established tilt testing includes monitoring of heart rate and blood pressure...
