Journal ArticleDOI
Norepinephrine and 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenyl glycol gradients in human cerebrospinal fluid.
TL;DR: The authors evaluated the relationship between norepinephrine and MHPG in CSF and found that both are present in increasing levels as more CSF is removed from the lumbar puncture needle.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adverse Impact of Mood on Flow-Mediated Dilation
Denise C. Cooper,Milos Milic,Joseph Tafur,Paul J. Mills,Wayne A. Bardwell,Michael G. Ziegler,Joel E. Dimsdale +6 more
TL;DR: Preliminary results show that even mild levels of adverse psychological states, particularly depressed, anxious, angry, confused, and fatigued states, might be linked to increased cardiovascular risk.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vulnerable Caregivers of Alzheimer Disease Patients Have a Deficit in β2-Adrenergic Receptor Sensitivity and Density
Paul J. Mills,Karen A. Adler,Joel E. Dimsdale,Christy J. Perez,Michael G. Ziegler,Sonia Ancoli-Israel,Thomas L. Patterson,Igor Grant +7 more
TL;DR: The findings indicate that for more vulnerable caregivers, the stress of caregiving leads to a loss of lymphocyte beta(2)-adrenergic receptors, relevant to previous observations of clinically-relevant reduced immunity in highly stressed caregivers of AD patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Central muscarinic effects of physostigmine on mood, cardiovascular function, pituitary and adrenal neuroendocrine release
TL;DR: The mechanism by which physostigmine exerts its behavioral, neuroendocrine and cardiovascular effects was explored and it is suggested that the centrally-acting cholinesterase inhibitor exerted its effects via a central muscarinic mechanism.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of acute psychological stress on the hypercoagulable state in subjects (spousal caregivers of patients with Alzheimer's disease) with coronary or cerebrovascular disease and/or systemic hypertension.
Roland von Känel,Joel E. Dimsdale,Michael G. Ziegler,Paul J. Mills,Thomas L. Patterson,Serena K Lee,Igor Grant +6 more
TL;DR: The effects of standardized mental stress in a group of elderly subjects on markers of a hypercoagulable state—thrombin-antithrombin III complex (TAT) and fibrin D-dimer (DD)—and on the von Willebrand factor (vWF), a marker of endothelial dysfunction in cardiovascular disorders are investigated.
