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:

Salivary cortisol concentrations and behavior in a population of healthy dogs hospitalized for elective procedures
TL;DR: This work offers support for eventual construction of a rating tool that utilizes the presence or absence of specific behaviors to identify higher salivary cortisol concentrations in dogs subjected to hospitalization, which may be tied to greater psychogenic stress levels.

Noninvasive biochemical monitoring of physiological stress by Fourier transform infrared saliva spectroscopy
Svetlana Khaustova,Maxim Shkurnikov,E. A. Tonevitsky,Viacheslav Artyushenko,Alexander G. Tonevitsky +4 more
TL;DR: A new method of saliva biomarker determination by Attenuated Total Reflection Fourier-Transform Infrared (ATR FTIR) spectroscopy has been developed to monitor the exercise induced metabolic changes in saliva from male endurance athletes and was shown to be suitable for real-time checking of response to stress.

TL;DR: Chronic down-regulation of the HPA axis in participants with BED is suggested, and a relationship between psychological stress, the acute activation of theHPA axis, and food craving is found.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intimate partner violence moderates the association between mother-infant adrenocortical activity across an emotional challenge
TL;DR: It is suggested that social contextual features of the early caregiving environment may influence individual differences in the coordination between maternal and infant adrenocortical reactivity.

The Influence of Chronic Stress on Dementia-Related Diagnostic Change in Older Adults
Guerry M. Peavy,Mark W. Jacobson,David P. Salmon,Anthony Gamst,Thomas L. Patterson,Sherry Goldman,Paul J. Mills,Srikrishna Khandrika,Douglas Galasko +8 more
TL;DR: Ass associations between chronic stress and diagnostic change in 62 individuals participating in an Alzheimer disease research center longitudinal study are investigated to facilitate the identification of interventional strategies to reduce the risk of decline at different stages of susceptibility.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI
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.
