Overview
[Disease name] must be differentiated from other diseases that cause [clinical feature 1], [clinical feature 2], and [clinical feature 3], such as [differential dx1], [differential dx2], and [differential dx3].

[Disease name] must be differentiated from [[differential dx1], [differential dx2], and [differential dx3].
Differentiating [Disease name] from other Diseases
[Disease name] must be differentiated from other diseases that cause [clinical feature 1], [clinical feature 2], and [clinical feature 3], such as [differential dx1], [differential dx2], and [differential dx3].

[Disease name] must be differentiated from [differential dx1], [differential dx2], and [differential dx3].

As [disease name] manifests in a variety of clinical forms, differentiation must be established in accordance with the particular subtype. [Subtype name 1] must be differentiated from other diseases that cause [clinical feature 1], such as [differential dx1] and [differential dx2]. In contrast, [subtype name 2] must be differentiated from other diseases that cause [clinical feature 2], such as [differential dx3] and [differential dx4].
Differentiating [disease name] from other diseases on the basis of [symptom 1], [symptom 2], and [symptom 3]
POTS is often confused with vasovagal syncope. Most people with POTS don't feel well when they stand up, but they do not have syncope (pass out). In contrast, patients with vasovagal syncope (VVS) also known as neurocardiogenic syncope (NCS) do have syncopal episodes, but feel fine in between episodes. About 30% of patients with POTS also have vasovagal syncope (VVS) also known as neurocardiogenic syncope (NCS).
POTS must also be distinguished from Pure Autonomic Failure
On the basis [symptom 1], [symptom 2], and [symptom 3], [disease name] must be differentiated from [disease 1], [disease 2], [disease 3], [disease 4], [disease 5], and [disease 6].
