Looking for idiopathic intracranial hypertension in patients with chronic fatigue syndrome. 寻找慢性疲劳综合征患者的特发性颅内高压。

Fatigue is common in idiopathic intracranial hypertension, a headache condition of unknown cause in which the only clinical signs are those of raised intracranial pressure, signs which may be absent.
