Path analysis used test hypothesised relationships. results proved that mediates relationship overall implied balance workload prolonged stress have an impact decreased performanc...

Prolonged exposure therapy (PE), a well-known trauma-focused cognitive behavioral treatment (TFCBT), is the most scientifically established treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among a variety of pharmacotherapies and psychotherapies. It is comprised of two types of exposure technique: imaginal exposure and in vivo exposure. This paper overviews a recent review of psychotherapies...

abstract background: prolonged labor can lead to maternal and neonatal complications. the purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of oral propranolol plus oxytocin versus oxytocin only on the process and outcome of labor. materials and methods: in a randomized, double-blind, controlled trial performed in ilam mustafa hospital, a total of 146 nulliparous pregnant women at gestational...

OBJECTIVE To determine whether pharmacological stress leads to prolonged but reversible left ventricular dysfunction in patients with coronary artery disease, similar to that seen after exercise. DESIGN A randomised crossover study of recovery time of systolic and diastolic left ventricular function after exercise and dobutamine induced ischaemia. SUBJECTS 10 patients with stable angina, an...

Cardiovascular drift, the progressive increase in heart rate and decrease in stroke volume that begins after approximately 10 min of prolonged moderate-intensity exercise, is associated with decreased maximal oxygen uptake, particularly during heat stress. Consequently, the increased heart rate reflects an increased relative metabolic intensity during prolonged exercise in the heat when cardiov...

This paper includes information required for establishing and conducting an occupational therapy program in an intensive care unit. Three common problems in the intensive care unit are immobility and prolonged bed rest, sensory deprivation and stress, and prolonged mechanical ventilation. The resolution of these rehabilitation problems through occupational therapy intervention is addressed.

BACKGROUND Mental stress is a risk factor for atherosclerosis and may precipitate myocardial ischemia and infarction. Because endothelial dysfunction is an early manifestation of atherosclerosis, we investigated the impact of mental stress on endothelial function. Methods and Results- The effects of a 3-minute mental stress task on endothelium-dependent vasodilation were studied in healthy subj...

Post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a debilitating anxiety disorder resulting from traumatic stress exposure. Females are more likely to develop PTSD than males, but neurobiological mechanisms underlying female susceptibility are lacking. This can be addressed by using nonhuman animal models. Single prolonged stress (SPS), a nonhuman animal model of PTSD, results in cued fear extinction re...

In response to stress, cellular compartments activate signaling pathways that mediate transcriptional programs to promote survival and reestablish homeostasis. Manipulation of the magnitude and duration of the activation of stress responses has been proposed as a strategy to prevent or repair the damage associated with aging or degenerative diseases. However, as these pathways likely evolved to...
