TL;DR: The Dresden Burnout Study is a 12‐year longitudinal cohort study that aims to provide a description of the burnout syndrome on the basis of time and symptom criteria with a special focus on the search for biomarkers.

TL;DR: A positive relation of SLC6A4 promoter methylation and amygdaloid resting state functional coupling with key nodes of the salience network (SN) including the anterior insulae and the dorsal anterior cingulate cortices is indicated.

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that adrenomedullary dysfunction is a characteristic feature of obesity that involves both reduced adrenal secretion of epinephrine and size of adrenal medullaryEpinephrine stores.

TL;DR: Although individuals of the stress group showed a pronounced stress response, they were able to recruit more resources and to engage more voluntary top-down control when instructed to do so, suggesting an adaptive nature of control regulation under acute stress that reflects a compensatory capacity with the potential to account for some of the observed ostensible impairments of cognitive control.

TL;DR: Small effect sizes suggest substantial additional genetic as well as environmental contributors to differential effects of BDNF val(66)met on distinct endophenotypes of anxiety and stress-related responses.
