Elevated allostatic load in individuals presenting at psychiatric emergency services
2018, Journal of Psychosomatic ResearchCitation Excerpt :The only studies that have included stress biomarkers (e.g., glucocorticoids) in emergency wards of general hospitals were among individuals exposed to trauma [46–49]. It has been shown that psychiatric emergency patients evidence hyper-sympathetic activity [50–52] and dysregulated lipid profiles [53,54]. Our AL indexing of 14 biomarkers contributes to this small literature by showing measurable multi-systemic differences in patients seeking PES that should be replicated.

2013, Journal of Affective DisordersCitation Excerpt :Total cholesterol levels (TC) were studied in recently suicide attempters, and compared to healthy controls with controversial results (Seefried and Gumpel, 1997; Tripodianakis et al., 2002; Diaz-Sastre et al., 2007; Atmaca et al., 2008, 2002, Jokinen et al., 2010). Especially in patients with affective disorders, low TC was associated with an increased risk for suicide attempt in some studies (Sullivan et al., 1994; Kunugi et al., 1997; Kim and Myint, 2004; Olie et al., 2011), but not in other studies (Almeida-Montes et al., 2000; Deisenhammer et al., 2004; D’ Ambrosio et al., 2012). Moreover, high cholesterol levels were found to be an indicator of increased risk for suicide attempt in depressed patients (Fiedorowicz and Coryell, 2007).
