We describe four Italian adolescents in whom a persistent, debilitating fatigue appeared after therapeutic ingestion of products containing L-tryptophan and subsequent to the development of a transient rise in eosinophil count and severe myalgia (Eosinophilia Myalgia Syndrome-EMS). Their clinical picture was indistinguishable from that of the so-called Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. A chronic fatigue may occur after diverse triggering agents and its represents the peculiar clinical evolution of these four paediatric cases of EMS.
我们描述了四名意大利青少年，他们在治疗性摄入含L-色氨酸的产品后，出现了持续且使人衰弱的疲劳，并且在嗜酸性粒细胞计数短暂升高和严重肌痛（嗜酸性粒细胞增多性肌痛综合征-EMS）出现之后。他们的临床表现与所谓的慢性疲劳综合征无法区分。多种触发因素后可能会出现慢性疲劳，这代表了这四例儿科EMS病例的特殊临床演变。
