Association of pain intensity, pain-related disability, and depression with hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis function in female patients with chronic temporomandibular disorders
Highlights • The HPA axis function in the female patients with chronic TMD was examined. • Cortisol secretion was comparable between patients and healthy controls. • Cortisol/DHEA ratio was increased with pain intensity and pain-related disability. • Cortisol/DHEA ratio was increased with severity o...

Zusammenfassung: | Highlights • The HPA axis function in the female patients with chronic TMD was examined. • Cortisol secretion was comparable between patients and healthy controls. • Cortisol/DHEA ratio was increased with pain intensity and pain-related disability. • Cortisol/DHEA ratio was increased with severity of depression. • The results show dissociation between cortisol and DHEA secretions in TMD patients. |
