Stress physiological

Cold stress Physiological stress on the body created by excessive loss of body heat. 

Physiologic stress evokes a molecular response essential to protecting the human body from cellular injury and death. Over the last two decades, molecular determinants of cellular responses to stress have become better understood, as well as their relationship to human health, development, aging, and disease. Molecular re-...

Onset of symptoms is acute and precipitated by excessive physiologic stress. 

Educate patients regarding need for increased hydrocortisone dosage during excessive physiologic stress. 

How to prevent an acute adrenal crisis (adhere to therapy, and do not stop glucocorticoid treatment abruptly). There may be a need to increase the dose of glucocorticoid during excessive physiologic stress. 

Understand that recovery of the HPA axis may take up to a year after glucocorticoid discontinuation during which the patient may require supplementation therapy during periods of physiologic stress.

Mitotane—if well-tolerated, dose may be doubled on day 3 then, from day 5 onwards, may increase dose by 500 mg every 2-3 days until maximum tolerated dose (8-12 grams daily) has been reached glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid replacement necessary to prevent adrenal insufficiency increased steroid doses may be needed at times of physiologic stress...

Sensing of encapsulation-induced physiological stress will help in the devising of synthesis procedures that will minimize cell inactivation during immobilization. 

For an assessment of environmental indicators, the biological or health-related aspects of animal welfare will be taken into consideration. Most indicators of animal welfare reflect relatively specific problems, measuring different components of welfare rather than welfare per se. Some of the parameters that may serve to describe the indicator animal welfare are immune problems, occurrence of disease, reduced productivity, mortality, physiological stress and behavioural deprivation. These parameters are influenced by animal husbandry issues such as housing conditions, breeding goals, and health measures, i.e. veterinary medicine. These factors are the subject of the following sections.
