Deze abstract gaat over onderzoek naar abnormaliteiten
bij COI & POTS.
COI = Chronic orthostatic intolerance
POTS = postural tachycardia syndrome (POTS
Studies have indicated a high degree of association between POTS and CFS.
"POTS is sometimes found in Fibromyalgia," and "POTS may share a common
pathophysiology with CFS." POTS is a disorder
characterized by a pulse/heart rate that is too fast when the patient stands.
Our preliminary data have shown that POTS physiology
underlies orthostatic intolerance in the large majority of adolescents with
the
chronic fatigue syndrome
Researchers supported by the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal
and Skin Diseases have discovered that an enzyme called calcium/calmodulin-dependent
protein kinase (CaMK) is a major player in activating "slow-twitch" muscles
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/ME and Fibromyalgiaplus
Associated Syndromes. Evidence for their organic basis: A summary
of the suggested underlying pathophysiologies and treatment approaches
The authors present for the first time evidence for enteroviral persistence
in humans based on sequence comparison of serial PCR products from the 5'
non-translated region (NTR).
