It has been suggested that paradoxical cerebral vasoconstriction during head-up tilt might be present in patients with orthostatic intolerance. We chose to study middle cerebral artery (MCA) blood flow velocity (BFV) and cerebral vasoregulation during tilt in patients with orthostatic intolerance (OI).\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n                    <jats:italic>Methods<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2014Beat-to-beat BFV from the MCA, heart rate, CO\n                    <jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>\n                    , blood pressure (BP), and respiration were measured in 30 patients with OI (25 women and 5 men; age range, 21 to 44 years; mean age, 31.3\u00b11.2 years) and 17 control subjects (13 women and 4 men; age range, 20 to 41 years; mean age, 30\u00b11.6 years); ages were not statistically different.

Among the cerebrovascular indices, all BFVs (systolic, diastolic, and mean) decreased significantly more, and cerebrovascular resistance (CVR) was increased in OI patients (\n                    <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt;0.01) compared with control subjects.
