Both larger MCV and lower MCHC values were independent risk factors of developing POTS (for MCV, P < .05, OR 1.222; for MCHC, P < .05, OR 0.936). In children with POTS, responders to ORS had baseline lower MCV and higher MCHC than nonresponders (P < .05). The receiver-operating characteristic curve for the predictive value of MCHC showed that area under the curve was 0.73.
CONCLUSIONS: MCHC values could be used to predict the effectiveness of ORS for treating POTS in childre
