Acetylcholine From Solitary Chemosensory Cell, Not Neuron, Regulates Basal Cell Fate Driving Eosinophilic Chronic Rhinosinusitis With Nasal Polyps

Allergy, EarlyView.
This study identifies that Ach levels are elevated in eCRSwNP and primarily released from SCCs rather than neurons. Ach induces epithelial remodeling in eCRSwNP by binding to M1R/M3R and activating YAP signaling in basal cells, driving basal cell hyperplasia and abnormal differentiation. Blocking M1R/M3R with TB inhibits eCRSwNP progression.

Salivary cortisol as a marker for assessing the problem‐focused coping style of stressed students during the first year of university: An experimental study

Health Science Reports, 2023
Background and Aims First‐year students encounter substantial stress when they enter university. Their mental health often depends upon how well they cope with the stress of university life. Salivary components are well known to reflect the stress status

Using sleep to enhance exposure treatment for anxious children: A pilot study

British Journal of Clinical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives: Exposure therapy is a well‐established treatment for anxiety disorders in children; however, many young people do not fully respond to treatment. Advances in strategies to enhance extinction learning from exposure therapy are urgently needed.

Mathematics anxiety: Effects of age, gender and culture

British Journal of Educational Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Many studies have indicated that mathematics anxiety is a significant problem for many people and is an important topic for research. Mathematics anxiety is multidimensional. In particular, it is important to distinguish between worry and emotionality components, and between trait and state anxiety.

Effects of postural intervention using a risshin chair on physical posture, class time perception, and subjective well‐being in junior high school students

British Journal of Educational Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Research based on embodied cognition has demonstrated that physical posture, particularly an upright seated posture, can influence emotions and cognition. However, although students spend most of the day sitting in classrooms, intervention research on upright seated postures suitable for learning environments is limited.

Glucocorticoids and HPA axis regulation in the stress–obesity connection: A comprehensive overview of biological, physiological and behavioural dimensions

Clinical Obesity, Volume 15, Issue 2, April 2025.
Summary Chronic stress, characterized by increased long‐term exposure to the glucocorticoid hormone cortisol, is increasingly linked to obesity development. Still, various knowledge gaps persist, including on underlying pathophysiological mechanisms. The aim of the current review is to provide the latest insights on the connection between stress and ...

Automated-immunosensor with centrifugal fluid valves for salivary cortisol measurement

Sensing and Bio-Sensing Research, 2014
Point-of-care measurement of the stress hormone cortisol will greatly facilitate the timely diagnosis and management of stress-related disorders. We describe an automated salivary cortisol immunosensor, incorporating centrifugal fluid valves and a ...
