Much interest recently has been given to chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) in Japan as other countries. The CFS Study Group sponsored by the Ministry of Health and Welfare has been developed since April 1991, A diagnostic criteria for CFS was newly proposed by this group. The criteria is substantially based upon the working case definition, which was made by Holmes and colleagues in 1988. There are some modification from CDC working case definition; the criteria of probable cases of CFS was defined, and postinfectious CFS was also given.
最近，日本和其他国家一样，对慢性疲劳综合征（CFS）给予了极大关注。自1991年4月以来，由厚生省赞助的CFS研究小组一直在开展工作，该小组新提出了CFS的诊断标准。该标准基本上基于1988年霍姆斯及其同事制定的工作病例定义。与美国疾病控制与预防中心（CDC）的工作病例定义有一些不同之处；定义了CFS可能病例的标准，也给出了感染后CFS的定义。
