Salivary cortisol as a biomarker in stress research.
TLDR
The present paper addresses several psychological and biological variables, which may account for such dissociations, and aims to help researchers to rate the validity and psychobiological significance of salivary cortisol as an HPAA biomarker of stress in their experiments.About:

Stress appraisals influence athletic performance and psychophysiological response during 16.1 km cycling time trials.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined how stress appraisals were associated with emotions, coping behaviours, as well as subjective and objective measures of performance, and found a sequential link between challenge stress appraisal and perceived goal attainment via pleasant emotions and task-oriented coping behaviours.

Is Crime Bad for Your Health? The Link Between Delinquent Offending and Cardiometabolic Risk:
Joseph A. Schwartz,Jukka Savolainen,Douglas A. Granger,Douglas A. Granger,Douglas A. Granger,Jessica L. Calvi +5 more
TL;DR: Examination of the longitudinal association between delinquency and physiological dysfunction in cardiovascular and metabolic functioning revealed that greater levels of delinquency are associated with higher levels of cardiometabolic risk.

Advanced prediction model for individual thermal comfort considering blood glucose and salivary cortisol
TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors developed an advanced thermal comfort-prediction model considering blood glucose (BG) and salivary cortisol (sCOR) and compared the predictive performance with conventional models.

The Effect of Stress on Salivary Metal Ion Content in Orthodontic Patients
TL;DR: Induction of stress in this study led to a significant increase in nickel release from orthodontic appliances into saliva, while the salivary chromium content however was not significantly altered, yet gradually increased.

MESH360: a framework for designing MMR-enhanced clinical simulations
TL;DR: It is argued that the collabo¬rative transdisciplinary design team model provides a transferable framework for designing MMR-enhanced clinical simulation environments and can be utilised to enhance wider clinical simulation contexts than the original context of Paramedicine education.

Impact of gender, menstrual cycle phase, and oral contraceptives on the activity of the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis.
TL;DR: Although men seem to have a stronger hypothalamic drive in response to stressful stimulation than women, differences in salivary-free cortisol levels, at least in part, may be explained by estradiol-induced changes in corticosteroid-binding protein levels.

Free Cortisol Levels after Awakening: A Reliable Biological Marker for the Assessment of Adrenocortical Activity
Jens C. Pruessner,Oliver T. Wolf,Dirk H. Hellhammer,Angelika Buske-Kirschbaum,K. von Auer,Silke Jobst,F. Kaspers,Clemens Kirschbaum +7 more
TL;DR: Early morning cortisol levels can be a reliable biological marker for the individual's adrenocortical activity when measured repeatedly with strict reference to the time of awakening, in contrast to single assessments at fixed times.

Maternal care during infancy regulates the development of neural systems mediating the expression of fearfulness in the rat
Christian Caldji,Beth Tannenbaum,Shakti Sharma,Darlene D. Francis,Paul M. Plotsky,Michael J. Meaney +5 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that maternal care during infancy serves to "program" behavioral responses to stress in the offspring by altering the development of the neural systems that mediate fearfulness.

Limbic system mechanisms of stress regulation: hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenocortical axis.
TL;DR: The influence of the limbic system on the HPA axis is likely the end result of the overall patterning of responses to given stimuli and glucocorticoids, with the magnitude of the secretory response determined with respect to the relative contributions of the various structures.

The cortisol awakening response (CAR): Facts and future directions
TL;DR: It is hypothesized that the anticipation of the upcoming day is of major relevance for the magnitude of the cortisol awakening response, and considerations are addressed concerning the exact function of the CAR.
