The paper talks about a cerebral vascular hyperperfusion (CVH) possibly produced by TOS, but some other articles suggest TOS may produce brain hypoperfusion in some cases.

TOS CVH often causes pronounced fatigue, and is a common co-finding in patients with myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME) / chronic fatigue syndrome. We also believe that the compensatory cerebroarterial vasodilation that occurs in chronic CVH may play a role in postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, another common sub-component of ME.
