Presentation
The present case-control study was designed to address these two issues. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Abstract Objective To describe the postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS), including clinical presentation, pathophysiology, diagnostic methods, and current management models. [doi.org]
One or more associated symptoms were often present: faintness, syncope, headache, dizziness, insomnia, increased perspiration, difficulty in swallowing, tremor, flushing and pallor. [jamanetwork.com]
The symptom complex it presents is almost as definite as that of angina. [annals.org]
Prognosis and Impact of POTS At present, only limited data are available on the prognosis of patients with POTS. [web.archive.org]

On a slightly longer time scale, a reduction of carbon dioxide can increase the production of lactic acid, which is a promoter of inflammation and fibrosis. [ndnr.com]
- Chronic Infection
Organic causes of fatigue include: chronic infections, anemia, endocrine and metabolic changes, chronic poisoning, the use of depressive and sedative drugs, malignancy, collagen disease, and all the debilitating diseases. [remedyland.com]

[…] s there were several studies aimed at determining the physical basis of these conditions[11][28] and in 1947 S.Wolf studied the “respiratory distress characterized by inability to get a full breath” and found that the thoracic diaphragm function was abnormal [theposturetheory.com]
- Tachypnea
Acute hyperventilation with obvious tachypnea accounts for about 1% of all cases of hyperventilation ( Lum 1975 ). [medlink.com]
- Hyperpnea
The percentage of carbon dioxide in inspired air which produces intolerable hyperpnea is below normal, except in very mild cases. A certain number of these men were held under the suspicion of being tuberculous. [history.amedd.army.mil]

In summary it can be observed that screening for heart disease in draftees was not very efficient, both allowing men with serious heart valve lesions to be inducted and excluding men with heart murmurs but no heart disease. [kumc.edu]

Da Costa's syndrome is a psychiatric disorder in which the patient experiences chest pain which may mimic angina. It is found commonly, but not exclusively, in women in association with other symptoms of anxiety. [gpnotebook.com]
Chest Pain Chest pain occurs in following cardiovascular changes, angina pectoris (this pain is caused by intermittent myocardial ischemia), myocardial infarction, myopericarditis, in the case of the presence of fluid in the pericardium with cardiac tamponade [remedyland.com]
Pain mainly involving chest discomfort not typical of angina pectoris caused by ischemic heart disease was generally described as presenting as attacks [1]. [onlinelibrary.wiley.com]

Workup
Chronic hyperventilation is not as easily recognized and is often overlooked, missed, or ignored in diagnostic workups. The reason is multifactorial. [ndnr.com]

This treatment has only been demonstrated to be of value in a few studies in selected subgroups of high-risk patients. [pesquisa.bvsalud.org]
