In order to realize a hand-held monitor of the sympathetic nervous system, we fabricated a completely automated analytical system for salivary amylase activity using a dry-chemistry system. This was made possible by the fabrication of a disposable test-strip equipped with built-in collecting and
Fatigue is a defining characteristic and one of the most debilitating features of fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS). The mechanisms underlying different dimensions of fatigue in FMS remain unclear. The aim of the current study was to test whether stress-related biological processes and physical activity
OBJECTIVE
There is limited knowledge about how fatigue develops and worsens and what influences fluctuations in daily fatigue. Stress was found to influence fatigue, and being in a relationship seems to either increase or decrease stress depending on the couple interaction. In this study,
This paper describes an approach for colorimetric detection of salivary α-amylase, one of the potential biomarkers of autonomic nervous system (ANS) activity, for enabling assessment of fatigue. The ability of α-amylase to cleave α-bonds of polysaccharides is utilized for developing a colorimetric
Vital exhaustion (VE) is characterised by unusual fatigue, increased irritability, and a feeling of demoralisation. It has been found a major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, and one that is independent of subclinical or clinical manifestations of coronary heart disease or lifestyle-related
A 68-year-old man who was admitted to our hospital because of general fatigue and anorexia. He was diagnosed as suffering from neuron specific enolase (NSE)-producing IgD-lambda type multiple myeloma with high activity of serum amylase, based on the detection of monoclonal IgD-lambda M-protein in
Objective: To examine feasibility and potential effects of a single session tDCS over the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) on competitive anxiety, mood state, and autonomic and endocrine stress responses in elite archer athletes
Diurnal patterns of salivary alpha amylase (sAA) in pregnant women have not previously been described. The current study employed ecological momentary assessment to examine the association between the diurnal sAA, obstetric history, maternal demographics, and mood during pregnancy. Saliva was
Major depressive disorder (MDD) is often associated with dysregulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis by chronic stress. In comparison, psychosocial stress-induced activation of salivary α-amylase (sAA) functions as a marker of sympathoadrenal medullary system (SAM) activity.
Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is characterized by affective instability, unstable relationships, and identity disturbance. We measured salivary alpha-amylase (sAA) and salivary cortisol levels in all participants during exposure to the Trier Social Stress Test (TSST) and an electric
Almost all patients with end-of-life cancer experience cancer-related fatigue; however, there are only a few known effective coping methods.We will conduct a prospective, multi-center, single-blinded randomized controlled study to evaluate the efficacy of BACKGROUND
Residual alcohol effects on physiological and psychological symptoms are commonly experienced the morning after alcohol consumption. The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of L-ornithine on subjective feelings and salivary stress markers the morning after alcohol consumption
BACKGROUND
Many cases of acute human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection (AHI) present to the Emergency Department (ED). Early diagnosis allows a patient to modify their behavior and seek early treatment. The Emergency Physician should know that the antibody response may be absent.

OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the effect of enzymatic activity and alkaline medium on flexural strength and rotary fatigue resistance of direct and indirect resin composite restorative materials.
METHODS
Three direct resin composite materials Filtek Z100, Filtek Z250 and Filtek Silorane (3M ESPE), and two
We investigated whether stress may influence fatigue, or vice versa, as well as factors mediating this relationship. Fifty healthy participants (31 females, 23.6±3.2 years) completed up to 5 momentary assessments of stress and fatigue during 5 days of preparation for their final examinations (exam
