The Use of Hair Cortisol as a Biomarker of Chronic Stress in Patients with a recent Acute Myocardial Infarction
… Since an MI is a stressful life event, plasma cortisol levels are expected to increase significantly from the baseline. Cortisol and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) as products of the hypothalamicpituitary-adrenal (HPA)-axis have been used to diagnose endocrine disorders in serum, urine and …
