Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is defined by symptoms and diagnosed without any objective diagnostic tests. Risk factors for developing CFS may include infection, psychiatric disorders, and allergies. Modest dysfunction of multiple organ systems, including the immune, central nervous, endocrine, and muscular systems, have been identified in cases of CFS. Symptoms of various organic, psychiatric, and poorly understood disorders overlap those of CFS. There is no known cure for CFS; however, exercise, counseling, and medications may provide symptomatic relief.
慢性疲劳综合征（CFS）由症状定义，无需任何客观诊断测试即可确诊。患CFS的风险因素可能包括感染、精神障碍和过敏。在CFS病例中已发现多个器官系统存在轻度功能障碍，包括免疫、中枢神经、内分泌和肌肉系统。各种器质性、精神性以及病因不明的疾病的症状与CFS的症状重叠。目前尚无已知的CFS治愈方法；然而，运动、咨询和药物治疗可能会缓解症状。
