First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 26, 2026 · Updated 26 times
Summary
This study looked at how certain hormones (renin and aldosterone) affect blood pressure in people with Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS). Researchers measured changes in blood pressure and hormone levels after a one-hour infusion. The goal was to better understand what causes POTS, not to test a treatment. 28 adults with POTS and healthy volunteers took part.
