Evidence for earthquake triggering stress

Nature, 1975
Earthquake time series are constructed by making counts per unit time of earthquakes with magnitudes greater than a chosen threshold. The time series from widely separated regions show strong correlations with one another, and it is suggested that tectonic plates are subjected to a fluctuating stress field that results in these changes in seismic ...

Is stress a trigger factor for migraine?

Psychoneuroendocrinology, 2007
Although mental stress is commonly considered to be an important trigger factor for migraine, experimental evidence for this belief is yet lacking.To study the temporal relationship between changes in stress-related parameters (both subjective and objective) and the onset of a migraine attack.This was a prospective, ambulatory study in 17 migraine ...

The trigger for PSE condition in stress‐susceptible pigs

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, 1976
AbstractTightly coupled mitochondria from M. longissimus dorsi (LD) muscle of different breeds of pigs showed variations in the rate of Ca2+ efflux during anaerobiosis. The initial fast efflux rate of Ca2+ could be used to relate the stress‐susceptibility of the pigs used. Mitochondria from LD muscle of stress‐susceptible (SS) Pietrain and Poland China

Nanoscale Wear Triggered by Stress-Driven Electron Transfer

Nano Letters, 2023
Wear of sliding contacts causes device failure and energy costs; however, the microscopic principle in activating wear of the interfaces under stress is still open. Here, the typical nanoscale wear, in the case of silicon against silicon dioxide, is investigated by single-asperity wear experiments and density functional theory calculations.

Emotional Stress as a Trigger for Inflammatory Skin Disorders

Seminars in Cutaneous Medicine and Surgery, 2013
Dermatologic disorders comprise 15% to 20% of complaints seen in general practice. Skin disorders result in a negative impact to the patient not only physically but also psychologically, socially, and occupationally. The most common trigger for several inflammatory skin disorders, including psoriasis, is emotional stress. Understanding the significance

CNS disease triggering Takotsubo stress cardiomyopathy

International Journal of Cardiology, 2014
There are a number of hereditary and non-hereditary central nervous system (CNS) disorders, which directly or indirectly affect the heart (brain-heart disorders). The most well-known of these CNS disorders are epilepsy, stroke, infectious or immunological encephalitis/meningitis, migraine, and traumatic brain injury. In addition, a number of hereditary

Stress‐Triggered Abortion in Mice Prevented by Alloimmunization

American Journal of Reproductive Immunology, 1993
PROBLEM: To determine if immunotherapy can prevent abortion triggered by mechanisms that in humans may be treatable by psychotherapy.METHOD: The effects of alloimmunization against paternal strain antigens were tested in pregnant mice subjected to stress.RESULTS: Restraint stress boosted the resorption rate assessed on day 13.5 of pregnancy in DBA/2 ...

Metabolic Stress Triggers Immune Escape by Tumors

Trends in Cancer, 2019
There is major interest in understanding the role of the tumor microenvironment in immune escape. In a recent report, Marijt et al. shed light on the signaling cascade that leads to decreased surface expression of MHC class I by tumor cells triggered by low oxygen and glucose availability, revealing new opportunities for therapeutic intervention.

Pemphigus Vulgaris Triggered by Rifampin and Emotional Stress

SKINmed: Dermatology for the Clinician, 2004
A 56-year-old Jewish woman of Ashkenazi origin had a history of tuberculosis since the age of 1 year, contracted while she was in hiding in Poland during the Holocaust. She developed bronchiectasis in 1972 for which she was being treated 4 times a year for 1-month periods with 600 mg/d rifampin.

Hormetics: Dietary Triggers of an Adaptive Stress Response

Pharmaceutical Research, 2011
A series of dietary ingredients and metabolites are able to induce an adaptive stress response either by generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and/or via activation of the Nrf2/Keap1 stress response network. Most of the molecules belong to activated Michael acceptors, electrophiles capable to S-alkylate redox sensitive cysteine thiols.
