Abstract
It is well known that extraordinary stress or chronic exposure to stressors is characterized by adverse immunological consequences due to stress-induced immunosuppression. It has been established that stress causes an increased incidence of malignant tumors and also worsens the prognosis in patients with already existing tumors. Among the mechanisms of carcinogenesis under stress, there is an increase in the level of cortisol, which has a significant inhibitory effect on the immune system and the secretion of pro-inflammatory interleukins. Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) involves inactivation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and decreased secretion of cortisol in humans, or corticosterone in rats and mice. However, the question of whether PTSD is a risk factor for the development of cancer or tumor growth remains practically undeveloped.
期刊介绍:
Cardiometry is an open access biannual electronic journal founded in 2012. It refers to medicine, particularly to cardiology, as well as oncocardiology and allied science of biophysics and medical equipment engineering. We publish mainly high quality original articles, reports, case reports, reviews and lectures in the field of the theory of cardiovascular system functioning, principles of cardiometry, its diagnostic methods, cardiovascular system therapy from the aspect of cardiometry, system and particular approaches to maintaining health, engineering peculiarities in cardiometry developing. The interdisciplinary areas of the journal are: hemodynamics, biophysics, biochemistry, metrology. The target audience of our Journal covers healthcare providers including cardiologists and general practitioners, bioengineers, biophysics, medical equipment, especially cardiology diagnostics device, developers, educators, nurses, healthcare decision-makers, people with cardiovascular diseases, cardiology and engineering universities and schools, state and private clinics. Cardiometry is aimed to provide a wide forum for exchange of information and public discussion on above scientific issues for the mentioned experts.
