Neuroendocrine System Regulatory Mechanisms: Acute Coronary Syndrome and Stress Hyperglycaemia

The term resilience, which has been present in science for almost half a century, stands for the capacity of some system needed to overcome an amount of disturbance from the environment in order to avoid a change to another stable state. In medicine, the concept of resilience means the ability to deal with daily stress and disturbance to our homeostasis with the intention of protecting it from disturbance. With aging, the organism becomes more sensitive to environmental impacts and more susceptible to changes. Mental disturbances and a decline in psychological resilience in older people are potentiated with many social and environmental factors along with a subjective perception of decreasing health. Distinct from findings in younger age groups, mental and physical medical conditions in older people are closely associated with each other, sharing common mechanisms and potentiating each other’s development. Increased inflammation and oxidative stress have been recognized as the main driving mechanisms in the development of aging diseases. This paper aims to reveal, through a translational approach, physiological and molecular mechanisms of emotional distress and low psychological resilience in older individuals as driving mechanisms for the accelerated development of chronic aging diseases, and to systematize the available information sources on strategies for mitigation of low resilience in order to prevent chronic diseases.

“…39,73 There indeed seems to be a relationship between hormonal changes or imbalance and disease, but to what extent these hormonal changes can also predict long-term disease still needs further study. 74 The question remains whether psychological stressors, such as high work load and unperceived stress, 73 can be measured with HCC, and to what extent this measurement is predictive for future disease and related sick leave. We found many small cross-sectional studies for the assessment of work stressors and perceived work stress.…”

Objectives: Workplace-based selective prevention of mental health problems currently relies on subjective evaluation of stress complaints. Hair cortisol captures chronic stress responses and could be a promising biomarker for the early identification of mental health problems. The objective was to provide an overview of the state-of-the-art knowledge on the practical value of hair cortisol in the occupational setting. Methods: We performed a scoping review of cross-sectional and longitudinal studies in PubMed, Embase, and PsycINFO up to November 2019 assessing the relations of hair cortisol with work-related stressors, perceived stress, and mental health outcomes in healthy workers. Results: We found five longitudinal studies, of which two observed an increase in work-related stressors to be associated with higher hair cortisol, one found a relation with lower hair cortisol and one did not find a relationship. Findings of crosssectional studies were also mixed. The one available longitudinal study regarding mental health showed that hair cortisol was not related to depressive symptoms. Conclusions: Hair cortisol measurement within occupational health research is still in its early stage and more longitudinal studies are urgently needed to clarify its relationship with work-related stressors and perceived stress before hair cortisol can be used to identify workers at risk for mental health problems.

“…Otros estudios dieron cuenta de formas de expresión y encadenamiento de la segmentación y fragmentación territorial y educativa (Grinberg et. al., 2013;Kessler, 2002Kessler, , 2014Langer y Cestare, 2014;Pérez, 2015;Steinberg, 2014;Tiramonti, 2007). Estos trabajos ponen en evidencia las múltiples interrelaciones entre las dinámicas y características de las instituciones escolares y las configuraciones de los espacios urbanos en que estas se emplazan, de allí su relevancia para este estudio.…”

El papel del Estado es, sin duda, clave en lo que refiere al despliegue de los recursos que una sociedad requiere para atender las demandas, contingencias y necesidades de la población. El Estado toma posición respecto de las cuestiones públicas que afectan el bienestar de la ciudadanía en escenarios donde esas demandas no sólo no son transparentes sino que son objeto de lucha. La pregunta por las políticas públicas refiere a la secuencia de posiciones y acciones de las agencias gubernamentales y burocráticas que actúan en nombre del Estado con relación a esas demandas que conforman la agenda pública (Oszlak, 2006). Es en este marco de debates que esta investigación se propuso el estudio de las políticas públicas de la educación secundaria. Específicamente nos hemos ocupado de la puesta en acto (Ball, Maguire & Braun, 2012; Bocchio, Grinberg y Villagran, 2016; Villagran, 2018) de un conjunto de políticas en su devenir institucional atendiendo a la desigualdad y fragmentación urbana en la zona norte de Santa Cruz, especialmente Caleta Olivia. Este trabajo involucró tres momentos de investigación: 1) la georeferencia de la información estadística en el espacio urbano de los establecimientos educativos por radios censales y Necesidades Básicas Insatisfechas (NBI) según Censo Nacional de Población, Hogares y Viviendas 2010, que dieron lugar a la confección de mapas socioeducativos mediante QGis; 2) encuestas a estudiantes y 3) entrevistas en profundidad en algunas escuelas seleccionadas según criterios de desigualdad urbana y escolar. En este trabajo nos enfocamos en las políticas públicas en educación secundaria y su puesta en acto de la vida escolar, atendiendo a la desigualdad urbana y a haciendo eje en las visiones de los estudiantes. En esta primera etapa del trabajo realizado nos hemos ocupado, dado su impacto en la vida escolar en los últimos cinco años, de algunas dimensiones de esas políticas que refieren a las nuevas regulaciones en la escolaridad secundaria y más específicamente en las dinámicas de las escuelas emplazadas en las áreas con mayor NBI de la localidad.
