Inclusion of patients with autoimmune autonomic neuropathies/ pure autonomic failure, postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, small fiber neuropathies and Ehlers Danlos syndromes in our Register study with follow up visits. Comparison to healthy controls. Planned examinations are laboratory tests, questionnaires on mental and physical health status and circulatory disorders, attention tests, tilt table testing, sweat function, investigation of small fiber function via quantitative sensory testing as well as the density of nerve fibers in the skin. Measurements are performed at baseline mostly in clinical routine and follow up visits are offered.
