In the TOS literature, diagnostic maneuvers focus on the provocation of upper limb symptoms (arm fatigue and heaviness, paresthesias, neck and upper back pain), but not on elicitation of systemic symptoms.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Objectives<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>To estimate the proportion of patients with fatiguing illness who experience local and systemic symptoms during a common maneuver used in evaluating TOS\u2014the elevated arm stress test (EAST).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Patients were eligible for this retrospective study if they had been referred to the Johns Hopkins Chronic Fatigue Clinic between January 2020 and July 2023 and (a) reported difficulty maintaining arms-overhead postures, (b) were evaluated with an abbreviated one-minute EAST, and (c) had not undergone surgery in the upper limb, neck, or skull base. Modified EAST procedure: patients sat with their arms in a \u201chands up\u201d or \u201ccandlestick\u201d position while opening and closing their hands every 2\u20133\u00a0s repeatedly for 1\u00a0min, rather than the customary 3\u00a0min. The test was considered abnormal for local symptoms if the participant experienced pain, fatigue, heaviness, paresthesias, warmth or tremulousness in the upper limb, shoulder, neck, head, or upper back. The test was considered abnormal for systemic symptoms if the participant experienced overall fatigue, cognitive fogginess, lightheadedness, racing heart, diaphoresis, dyspnea, overall warmth, or nausea.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Of 154 patients evaluated during the study period, 64 (42%) met the eligibility criteria (61\/64 female, median age 18\u00a0years [range, 13 to 50]). Of the 64, 50 (78%) had ME\/CFS, 13 (20%) had idiopathic chronic fatigue with associated orthostatic intolerance (OI), and one had idiopathic chronic fatigue without OI. Of the 64, 58% had evidence of joint hypermobility. Local symptoms were provoked by EAST in 62\/64 (97%) within a median of 20\u00a0s. During EAST, 26\/64 (41%) reported systemic symptoms (1 had only systemic but no upper limb symptoms), most commonly lightheadedness (19%) and generalized fatigue (11%).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Even with an abbreviated test duration, the EAST maneuver provoked local and systemic symptoms in a substantial proportion of patients with chronic fatigue, OI, and ME\/CFS who had reported difficulty with arms-overhead postures.
