Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is characterized by unexplained fatigue
that lasts for at least 6 months with a constellation of other
symptoms. Most cases start suddenly, and are usually accompanied by a
flu-like illness. It is a symptom-based diagnosis of exclusion, the
pathogenesis of which is unknown.
Studies have examined and hypothesized about the possible biomedical
and epidemiologic characteristics of the disease, including genetic
predisposition, infections, endocrine abnormalities, and immune
dysfunction and psychological and psychosocial factors.
Recently, the AISA (autoimmune/inflammatory syndrome induced by
adjuvants) syndrome was recognized, indicating the possible
contribution of adjuvants and vaccines to the development of
autoimmunity.
