Upright posture influences salivary cortisol
Psychoneuroendocrinology, 2000This study was designed to investigate the influence of posture on salivary cortisol concentrations in healthy volunteers. In a balanced cross-over design 24 subjects were exposed at 1 week intervals to different body positions (sitting [S], lying [L] upright [U]) for 20 min in each condition.

Salivary cortisol as a biomarker in stress research
Psychoneuroendocrinology, 2009Salivary cortisol is frequently used as a biomarker of psychological stress. However, psychobiological mechanisms, which trigger the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis (HPAA) can only indirectly be assessed by salivary cortisol measures. The different instances that control HPAA reactivity (hippocampus, hypothalamus, pituitary, adrenals) and their ...

Long‐term stability of salivary cortisol
Scandinavian Journal of Clinical and Laboratory Investigation, 2005The measurement of salivary cortisol provides a simple, non-invasive, and stress-free measure frequently used in studies of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis activity. In research projects, samples are often required to be stored for longer periods of time either because of the protocol of the project or because of lack of funding for analysis ...

Salivary Cortisol Predicts Cardiovascular Mortality
Current Hypertension Reports, 2011Methods: The Whitehall II study was a prospective cohort study conducted among civil servants in the United Kingdom, with the participation of 6,941 individuals. The mean age of participants was 61 years and the mean duration of follow-up was 6.1 years. Sequential salivary samples taken from waking to bedtime were analyzed.

Polarisation fluoroimmunoassay of serum and salivary cortisol
Journal of Steroid Biochemistry, 1983Polarisation fluoroimmunoassays for serum and salivary cortisol were developed using the steroid labelled at the 3-position with fluorescein and antiserum raised in sheep. To avoid interfering factors present in the biological fluids, cortisol was extracted with dichloromethane prior to assay, which was then accomplished without the need for any ...

The morning salivary cortisol response in burnout
Journal of Psychosomatic Research, 2005The aim of the present study was to examine the free salivary cortisol response to awakening in men and women reporting low, moderate, and high levels of burnout.Twenty-two patients on sick leave due to burnout were compared with 22 working participants with low and 20 working participants with intermediate scores on the Shirom-Melamed Burnout ...

Salivary cortisol and cortisone in the clinical setting
Current Opinion in Endocrinology, Diabetes & Obesity, 2017Purpose of review A resurgence of interest in salivary biomarkers has generated evidence for their value in assessing adrenal function. The advantages of salivary measurements include only free hormone is detected, samples can be collected during normal daily routines and stress-induced cortisol release is less likely to occur ...

SALIVARY CORTISOL HYPERSECRETION IN JUVENILE DEPRESSION
Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 1988Abstract Thirty depressed inpatients aged 7–16 yrs were compared for salivary hypercortisolism with a control group of 16 inpatients of mixed diagnosis matched for age and sex. Four cortisol samples were taken over a 48 hr period: 8 a.m. and 11 p.m.

Salivary cortisol patterns in vital exhaustion
Journal of Psychosomatic Research, 2000The syndrome of vital exhaustion (VE), a risk indicator for myocardial infarction, is characterized by excessive fatigue, irritability, and demoralization. Dysregulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenocortical (HPA) axis is a potential pathogenic mechanism in fatigue syndromes, but little is known about HPA function in syndromal VE.We assessed ...

Salivary Cortisol as a Predictor of Postoperative Fatigue
Psychosomatic Medicine, 2005Some patients with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) exhibit low basal cortisol levels, but it is not known whether low cortisol is a cause of CFS, predates the onset of CFS symptoms, or is an epiphenomenon caused by the behavioral changes typical of CFS.
