A Cross-Sectional Study of Cardiovascular Autonomic Reactivity in Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome

Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) may be linked to dysfunction in the autonomic nervous system, affecting collagen production and processing. These collagen abnormalities lead to a condition called dysautonomia. Findings underscore the need for further investigation into autonomic nervous system function in EDS which involves larger studies to strengthen the evidence of non-invasive screening tools like cardiovascular reflex tests. These tests might offer a valuable way to assess an individual's risk for future complications.
