Worsening Symptoms Is Associated with Larger Cerebral Blood Flow Abnormalities during Tilt-Testing in Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS)

The data suggest a causal relationship where a larger CBF reduction leads to worsening symptoms.PMID:38138257 | PMC:PMC10744908 | DOI:10.3390/medicina59122153
