JOURNAL ARTICLES:
Exercise Testing in Children and Adolescents with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. (Int J Sports Med. 2007)
Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal Axis Function in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. (Neuropsychobiology. 2007)
Low grade inflammation and arterial wave reflection in patients with chronic fatigue syndrome. (Clin Sci (Lond). 2007)
[Overlap between atypical depression, seasonal affective disorder and chronic fatigue syndrome] (Rev Bras Psiquiatr. 2007) "CONCLUSIONS: Therefore, in the real world of clinical practice, patients often present in a grey area between classical idiopathic fatigue and early chronic atypical depression and/or seasonal depression. This underscores the potential common biological links underpinning common symptom clusters not only between depression (atypical and seasonal) and chronic fatigue syndrome, but also other conditions characterized by the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis mainly diminished the corticotropin realising factor activity."
Prevalence of chronic fatigue syndrome in metropolitan, urban, and rural Georgia (Population Health Metrics 2007) "We estimated that 2.54% of the Georgia population suffers from CFS, which is 6 to 10 fold higher than previous population-based estimates in other geographic areas. These differences may reflect broader screening criteria and differences in the application of the case definition, however we cannot exclude the possibility that CFS prevalence may be higher in Georgia than other areas where it has been measured."
Symptoms of autonomic dysfunction in chronic fatigue syndrome. (QJM. 2007)
The chronic fatigue syndrome - an update. (Acta Neurol Scand Suppl. 2007) "Estimates of prevalence vary from 0.2% to above 2%. The female-male ratio is approximately 3:1. Clinical Features - Severe fatigue is the dominating complaint; it is worsened from exertions and not substantially relieved by rest. In addition, the patients might have a varying combination of accompanying symptoms."
