POTS antibody hunt: could inflammation be the key?
NCT ID NCT02196376
First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Jun 06, 2026 · Updated 25 times
Summary
This study compares blood samples from 212 people with and without Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) to see if those with POTS have more antibodies to adrenergic receptors. Researchers also want to know if these antibodies are more common in people whose POTS started after a viral infection. The goal is to better understand what causes POTS, not to test a new treatment.
