Clinical trials: Neurally Mediated Syncope
Vasovagal Syncope, Postural Tachycardia Syndrome
Mechanisms of Vasovagal Syncope
Vasovagal Syncope (simple postural faint) is the most common cause of acute loss of consciousness. Postural tachycardia syndrome(POTS) is the most common chronic form of postural lightheadedness.

Dysautonomia
MRI to Assess the Effects of Dysautonomia and Chronic Nausea on Brain Transmitters
The purpose of this research study is to better understand what causes dysautonomia and how this affects blood pressure and pulse. Dysautonomia is a condition of the autonomic nervous system.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Myalgic Encephalomyelitis
Reducing Orthostatic Intolerance With Oral Rehydration in Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Patients
We and others have shown that many younger patients with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) have orthostatic intolerance (OI), i.e., they can't tolerate prolonged standing.
