Anjum Hajat,Ana V. Diez-Roux,Tracy Green Franklin,Teresa E. Seeman,Sandi Shrager,Nalini Ranjit,Cecilia Castro,Karol E. Watson,Brisa N. Sánchez,Clemens Kirschbaum +9 more

Journal ArticleDOI
'Normal' cigarette smoking increases free cortisol in habitual smokers
TL;DR: It is suggested that 'normal' cigarette smoking can increase free cortisol levels, and salivary cortisol output was significantly elevated in the smokers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hair cortisol as a biomarker of traumatization in healthy individuals and posttraumatic stress disorder patients.
Susann Steudte,Clemens Kirschbaum,Wei Gao,Wei Gao,Nina Alexander,Sabine Schönfeld,Jürgen Hoyer,Tobias Stalder +7 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that trauma exposure per se, either in the absence or presence of PTSD, is a crucial correlate of long-term basal cortisol levels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Short-term estradiol treatment enhances pituitary-adrenal axis and sympathetic responses to psychosocial stress in healthy young men
Clemens Kirschbaum,Nicole C. Schommer,Ilona S. Federenko,Jens Gaab,O. Neumann,M. Oellers,Nicolas Rohleder,A. Untiedt,J P Hanker,Karl-Martin Pirke,Dirk H. Hellhammer +10 more
TL;DR: Short term estradiol administration resulted in hyperresponses of the pituitary-adrenal axis and norepinephrine to psychosocial stress in healthy young men independent of psychological effects, as assessed in this study.
Journal ArticleDOI

Susann Steudte,Iris-Tatjana Kolassa,Iris-Tatjana Kolassa,Tobias Stalder,Anett Pfeiffer,Clemens Kirschbaum,Thomas Elbert +6 more
TL;DR: The current hair cortisol findings suggest that PTSD in severely traumatized individuals who continue to live under stressful conditions might be associated with general hypercortisolism.
