A data-first resource for patients, caregivers, and clinicians navigating autonomic dysfunction without the noise. Each article is based around a specific piece of research.
You should not be able to simply pass or fail a tilt table test. This paper defines a measurable subtype of OI in patients whose HR and BP look completely normal on standard testing.
Read moreFoundational for the CO₂ and perfusion conversation in OI testing, and the fact that it dates to 1998 tells you everything about how long this evidence has been ignored at the clinical level.
Read moreA review article that explains in plain, coherent logic why CO₂ monitoring belongs in modern orthostatic testing. Useful for making the case to a clinician.
Read moreFrames POTS and HYCH/OCHOS as overlapping rather than distinct, and makes a direct claim about what is actually driving the tachycardia in POTS patients.
Read moreAn important counterweight. Not every case of orthostatic cerebral hypoperfusion is explained by hyperventilation and CO₂ dysregulation. Autoregulation itself can be impaired even in normocapnic POTS.
