Figure Legends
Figure 1. Pressure Pain thresholds of
the finger and shoulder pre- and post-HUT. Panel A shows healthy
controls, panel B ME/CFS patients without fibromyalgia and panel C
ME/CFS patients with fibromyalgia. HUT: head-up tilt test; PPT: pressure
pain thresholds.
Figure 2. Temporal summation on the
finger and shoulder pre- and post-HUT for HC, ME/CFS patients without
and with fibromyalgia. For clarity of the figure mean +/- SEM are shown.
Panel A shows the windup for the finger and Panel B for the shoulder.
The slopes within the groups (pre- and post-HUT) were not statistically
significant.
FM: fibromyalgia, +: with; -: without; HC: healthy controls; pre: before
head-up tilt test; post: after head-up tilt test
Figure 3. Delta windup (stimulus 10
minus stimulus 1) pre- and post-HUT in healthy controls, in ME/CFS
patients without fibromyalgia and in ME/CFS patients with fibromyalgia.
Panel A shows the windup for the finger and Panel B for the shoulder.
FM: fibromyalgia; HUT: head-up tilt test
