Serum autoantibody and PET images with [11C](+)3-MPB among normal control (NC) and CFS(−) and CFS(+) patients.
(A) Antibody index against the muscarinic cholinergic receptor (mAChR) in serum from NC, CFS(−) and CFS(+) groups. ***p<0.001, significantly different from the corresponding value for the CFS(+) patients (one way ANOVA using a post hoc Student-Newman-Keuls test). (B) Representative parametric PET images of [11C](+)3-MPB binding in NC, CFS(−) and CFS(+) groups.
