We measured stress using both the Perceived Stress Scale and biological markers, and resilience using both the Brief Resilience Scale and the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale. Stroke outcomes were assessed using the Stroke Impact Scale. We found that, compared with age-matched controls, stroke survivors reported greater levels of perceived stress, and lower levels of resilience. In stroke survivors, both perceived stress and resilience were independently associated with stroke outcomes in linear regression models. In particular, these relationships were observed for cognitive outcomes including mood, memory, and communication. The association between stress and stroke outcome did not differ across time post stroke. Given that resilience is a modifiable psychological construct, future research may consider whether strategies directed at enhancing resilience may improve recovery from stroke.

A more favourable ASI score was associated with improved symptoms of depression, anxiety, stress, QOL-mental and of energy and fatigue (all p < 0.05). The intervention effects on symptoms of depression ([AB; 95%CI] -0.31; - 0.60,-0.11), anxiety (- 0.11; - 0.27,-0.01), stress (- 0.37; - 0.65,-0.174), QOL-mental (0.53; 0.22, 1.01) and ratings of energy and fatigue (0.85; 0.33, 1.63) were mediated by ASI.

Conclusions: Improvements in the overall physical activity and sleep behaviours of adults partially mediated the intervention effects on mental health and quality of life outcomes. This highlights the potential benefit of improving the overall pattern of physical activity and sleep on these outcomes.

Presentation of acoustic stimuli (500-ms white noise, 40–90 dB) caused transient responses in respiratory rate that were proportional to the stimulus intensity, ranging from +13 ± 9 cpm to +276 ± 67 cpm for 40- and 90-dB stimuli, respectively. Inhibition of the amygdala significantly suppressed respiratory rate responses to the high-intensity stimuli (70–90dB). Submitting rats to the restraint stress significantly elevated the mean respiratory rate (+72 ± 8 cpm) and the dominant respiratory rate (+1 ± 12 cpm), as well as the fraction of high-frequency respiratory rate (+10 ± 3%). Inhibition of the amygdala by muscimol significantly suppressed these responses. We conclude that the amygdala is one of the key structures that are essential for expression of respiratory responses to stressful or alerting stimuli in rats.]]> Tue 31 Jul 2018 15:18:15 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:55205 Tue 30 Apr 2024 10:50:20 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:12496 Tue 24 Aug 2021 14:38:44 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:38070 Tue 21 Mar 2023 09:26:38 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:41940 n = 478) or without (n = 8134) a self-reported diagnosis of PCOS. Main outcome measures were depression, anxiety and perceived stress measured using validated scales. The χ² and t tests were used to assess differences between groups. Univariable and multivariable regression were performed to determine factors contributing to each outcome. Results: Women reporting PCOS, compared with women not reporting PCOS, reported higher prevalence of depression (27.3% v. 18.8%), anxiety symptoms (50% v. 39.2%) and greater score for perceived stress (1.01 ± 0.03 v. 0.88 ± 0.01). After adjusting for body mass index, infertility and socio-demographic factors, women with PCOS were still more likely to be depressed, anxious and to have a higher level of perceived stress. There was a high-level mediation effect of stress between PCOS and both depression and anxiety. Conclusion: Compared with women not reporting PCOS, women reporting PCOS have increased depression, anxiety and perceived stress. Stress may play a role in the association between PCOS, depression and anxiety. Further studies should consider assessment and management of stress in PCOS as it may be relevant for understanding the aetiology and treatment of psychological distress.]]> Tue 16 Aug 2022 10:54:17 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:54240 Tue 13 Feb 2024 13:19:59 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:45896 Tue 08 Nov 2022 09:04:05 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:23554 Tue 08 May 2018 16:17:57 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:30749 Tue 03 Sep 2019 18:26:17 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:8545 Thu 30 Jan 2014 14:55:47 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:8558 Thu 30 Jan 2014 14:54:51 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:8551 Thu 30 Jan 2014 14:46:47 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:8552 Thu 30 Jan 2014 14:44:51 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:8556 Thu 30 Jan 2014 14:44:05 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:8547 Thu 30 Jan 2014 14:43:14 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:8544 Thu 30 Jan 2014 14:42:50 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:8549 Thu 30 Jan 2014 14:42:12 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:8543 Thu 30 Jan 2014 14:41:07 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:8554 Thu 30 Jan 2014 14:40:39 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:8546 Thu 30 Jan 2014 14:40:12 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:8550 Thu 30 Jan 2014 14:39:42 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:8559 Thu 30 Jan 2014 14:38:53 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:8542 Thu 30 Jan 2014 14:38:23 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:8548 Thu 30 Jan 2014 14:38:03 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:8555 Thu 30 Jan 2014 14:36:56 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:107 Thu 25 Jul 2013 09:09:36 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:33592 Auricularia polytricha is a popular mushroom found all over the world. In this study we considered the effect of an aqueous extract of A. polytricha (AEAP) on restoring sexual performance parameters to normal, evaluated by considering observations of sexual behavior. At 0, 6, 12, 18, and 24 days, the following parameters of sexual performance were identified before and throughout the observations: mount latency, intromission latency, ejaculation latency, mounting frequency, intromission frequency, ejaculation frequency, and postejaculatory interval. Treatment of rats under stress with AEAP showed promising effects on overcoming stress-induced sexual dysfunction, on sexual performance, and on accessory sexual organs and body weight. Mounting latency, intromission latency, ejaculation latency, and postejaculatory interval parameters were significantly decreased by AEAP, whereas mounting frequency, intromission frequency, and ejaculation frequency were significantly increased by AEAP. These properties were identified in sexually dynamic and indolent male rats.

I am totally stressed at the moment, to be honest. Work is piling up and I’m just drowning. I don’t know when I’m going to have time to start on that secrecy and silence book chapter – I’m so, so late with it now, and I feel really bad that I’m letting Roisin down, but I literally never have a second. I know, I know exactly what you mean. I mean, I had 115 e-mails yesterday and they all needed answering. I’m doing 16 hour days just trying to keep on top of it. I feel like I’m always late with everything, and my ›to do‹ list grows faster than I can cross things off it. It’s like one of those fungi in a horror movie that doubles in size every few hours! (Laughter) And I never ever have chance to do any of my own work. I’m sleeping really badly and it all just feels completely out of control...It’s the same for me. Reading? What that? Thinking? No chance! And you feel awful, don’t you. With me I feel like I’m constantly stealing time from the kids too – I’ll go off to check messages in the middle of a game of Monopoly or something. Sometimes I just feel like quitting. Yeah I know. It just gets worse. Still hoping to win the lottery, then?(laughter) But how are you? Do you really want to know?! (laughter) (Yeh) well, awful actually. I’m really fed up. I heard yesterday that my article for x journal was turned down. (Oh no!) You know, the one I worked on for ages and ages. I poured so much of myself into that piece (I know). And one of the referee’s comments was vile – it said something like ›my first year undergraduates have a better understanding of the field than this author does – why are they wasting all of our time‹. When I read it it was like a slap in the face, Ros. It was all I could do not to burst out crying in the postroom, but I had a lecture right afterwards so I somehow managed to pull myself together and go and do that. But last night, I just didn’t sleep (poor you) I just kept on going over and over with all these negative comments ringing round my head. And you know the worst thing is, they are right: I am useless (no you’re not), I’m a complete fraud, and I should have realised that I was going to be found out if I sent my work to a top journal like that. This is a transcript of a conversation I had with a female friend in the few days before (finally) beginning work on this chapter. Both speakers are white, both work in »old« (pre-1992) British Universities, and both are employed on »continuing« contracts – thus are already marked as »privileged« in multiple ways in the contemporary academy. Mine is easily recognizable as the voice which worries about how late this article is! Some readers may find this fragment of conversation rather odd, but I suspect for many more it will appear familiar and may strike deep chords of recognition. It speaks of many things: exhaustion, stress, overload, insomnia, anxiety, shame, aggression, hurt, guilt and feelings of out-of-placeness, fraudulence and fear of exposure within the contemporary academy. These feelings, these affective embodied experiences, occupy a strange position in relation to questions of secrecy and silence. They are at once ordinary and everyday, yet at the same time remain largely secret and silenced in the public spaces of the academy. They are spoken in a different, less privileged register; they are the stuff of the chat in the corridor, coffee break conversations and intimate exchanges between friends, but not, it would seem, the keynote speech or the journal publication or even the departmental meeting. For all the interest in reflexivity in recent decades, the experiences of academics have somehow largely escaped critical attention. It is as if the parameters for reflexivity are bounded by the individual study, leaving the institutional context in which academic knowledge is produced simply as a taken for granted backdrop.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:44:53 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:31671 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:44:53 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:7555 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:42:06 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:1095 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:31:56 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:2813 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:30:17 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:12311 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:11:37 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:12260 2, respectively (P < 0.05 for 2 h runners vs controls), whereas intrinsic HR was 383 ± 3, 377 ± 2 and 346 ± 3 b.p.m., respectively (P < 0.001 for 2 h runners vs controls).

Compared with the referent, all three risk classes had significantly higher obesity risk, with the highest risk in the stress and low-income group (hazard ratio = 2.22; 95% CI: 1.92-2.56). Individual risks associated with obesity included lower education, stressful life events, and lower vigorous physical activity. Conclusions: Young women without baseline obesity were at risk of developing obesity when they experienced co-occurring behavioral, socioeconomic, and psychosocial risks. Both latent classes and individual risk indicators offer insights into prevention strategies.]]> Fri 11 Nov 2022 15:01:11 AEDT ]]>
