  • Title: Cardiovascular profile in postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome and Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type III.
    Author: Cheng JL, Au JS, Guzman JC, Morillo CA, MacDonald MJ.
    Journal: Clin Auton Res; 2017 Apr; 27(2):113-116. PubMed ID: 28005189.
    Abstract:
    The cardiovascular profile of postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome + Ehlers-Danlos syndrome hypermobility type (POTS + EDSIII) has not been described, despite suggestions that it plays a role in orthostatic intolerance. We studied nine individuals diagnosed with POTS + EDSIII and found that the arterial stiffness and cardiac profiles of patients with POTS + EDSIII were comparable to those of age- and sex-matched controls, suggesting an alternate explanation for orthostatic intolerance.
