Extremely Low-Frequency Magnetic Field as a Stress Factor—Really Detrimental?—Insight into Literature from the Last Decade

February 19, 2021
Klimek, A.; Rogalska, J. Extremely Low-Frequency Magnetic Field as a Stress Factor—Really Detrimental?—Insight into Literature from the Last Decade. Brain Sci. 2021, 11, 174. https://doi.org/10.3390/brainsci11020174 Abstract Biological effects of extremely low-frequency magnetic field (ELF-MF) and its consequences on human health have become the subject of important and recurrent public debate. ELF-MF evokes cell/organism responses that are characteristic to...

Saliva cortisol, melatonin levels and circadian rhythm alterations in Chinese primary school children with dyslexia

February 9, 2020
RESEARCH ARTICLE: OBSERVATIONAL STUDY Medicine: February 2020 – Volume 99 – Issue 6 – p e19098 doi: 10.1097/MD.0000000000019098 Abstract Cortisol is the main end product of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal gland (HPA axis), and melatonin (MT) has a regulating effect on HPA axis, and both are closely related to individual behavior and cognitive function. We aimed to evaluate cortisol and MT roles on children dyslexia in...

The physiological significance of the circadian dynamics of the HPA axis: Interplay between circadian rhythms, allostasis and stress resilience.

November 17, 2019
Horm Behav. 2019 Apr;110:77-89. doi: 10.1016/j.yhbeh.2019.02.018. Epub 2019 Mar 15. Abstract Circadian time-keeping mechanisms preserve homeostasis by synchronizing internal physiology with predictable variations in the environment and temporally organize the activation of physiological signaling mechanisms to promote survival and optimize the allocation of energetic resources. In this paper, we highlight the importance of the robust circadian...
