TIERED LEVELS OF RESTING CORTISOL IN AN ATHLETIC POPULATION. A POTENTIAL ROLE FOR INTERPRETATION IN BIOPSYCHOSOCIAL ASSESSMENT?

Tiered Levels of Resting Cortisol in an Athletic Population. A Potential Role for Interpretation in Biopsychosocial Assessment?

Background: Cortisol is a steroid hormone that follows a distinct diurnal timeline; however, while healthy ranges exist, it not been determined whether or why individuals differ on baseline cortisol levels.The aim of this study was to test the anecdotal evidence of different levels of responders by classifying these levels in resting cortisol, and

Delayed contrast enhancement imaging of a murine model for ischemia reperfusion with carbon nanotube micro-CT.

We aim dea eyewear to demonstrate the application of free-breathing prospectively gated carbon nanotube (CNT) micro-CT by evaluating a myocardial infarction model with a delayed contrast enhancement technique.Evaluation of murine cardiac models using micro-CT imaging has historically been limited by extreme imaging requirements.Newly-developed CNT-
