Body Mass Index in Relation to Cardiovascular Recovery from Psychological Stress among Trauma-Exposed Women (Jeffrey L. Kibler, Mindy Ma and Maria M. Llabre) European Archives of Psychiatry and Clinical Neuroscience (2019)

Delayed cardiovascular recovery has been associated with greater heart disease risks. However, relative to stress reactivity, cardiovascular recovery has been understudied. Further, few studies have examined associations of recovery with modifiable factors that might inform ...

Cardiovascular Risks in Relation to Posttraumatic Stress Severity among Young Trauma-Exposed Women (Jeffery L. Kibler, Mindy Ma, Mischa Tursich, et al.) Journal of Affective Disorders (2018)

BACKGROUND: Posttraumatic stress is associated with elevated risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD). Relatively little research, particularly among women, has documented mechanisms by which PTSD might confer CVD risk during early adulthood. The purpose of the ...

An Extension of the Perseverative Cognition Hypothesis to Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Symptomatology: Cardiovascular Recovery in Relation to Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Severity and Cognitive Appraisals of Stress (Jeffery L. Kibler) Journal of Traumatic Stress (2018)

Beyond the construct of cardiovascular reactivity, the measurement of cardiovascular recovery from stress represents an important index of exaggerated physiological arousal and disease risk. Cardiovascular recovery in posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) has not received adequate ...
