J Am Heart Assoc . 2025 Jan; 14(3):e034683. PMID: 39846285
Background: Acute psychological stress may induce physiological changes predisposing individuals to adverse health outcomes through hemodynamic and vascular effects. We studied the association between the aggregated stress-induced changes in hemodynamic...

Shah A, Vaccarino V, Moazzami K, Almuwaqqat Z, Garcia M, Ward L, et al.
Eur Heart J Open . 2024 Nov; 4(6):oeae086. PMID: 39588213
Aims: The mechanisms linking acute psychological stress to cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality are incompletely understood. We studied the relationship of electrocardiographic measures of autonomic dysfunction during acute mental stress provocation...

Circ Cardiovasc Qual Outcomes . 2024 Nov; 17(12):e011040. PMID: 39564654
Background: Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is associated with maladaptive dysregulation of stress response systems, which could lead to an increased risk of heart failure. We investigated whether PTSD was independently...

Sci Rep . 2024 Oct; 14(1):23479. PMID: 39379420
Excessive peripheral microvascular constriction during acute psychological stress reflects similar changes in coronary blood flow and is a predictor of adverse cardiovascular outcomes. Among individuals with coronary artery disease (CAD),...

J Am Heart Assoc . 2024 Mar; 13(7):e032740. PMID: 38533972
Background: Autonomic function can be measured noninvasively using heart rate variability (HRV), which indexes overall sympathovagal balance. Deceleration capacity (DC) of heart rate is a more specific metric of vagal...
