What is stress?
Example:Stress is a series of reactions, which may
lead to a chronic individual state characterized by a combination of high arousal, aversion and negative expectation about solving the challenge
![Page 6: Work, stress, and bodily reactions - …/media/Praesentationer/aamh-241008.pdf · Work, stress, and bodily reactions. Model Exposure Biological response Effect. Concept of biomarkers](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051721/5a8282477f8b9a38478e134e/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
What is stress?
Stress is your body's way of responding to any kind of demand. It can be caused by both good and bad experiences.
Stress is the emotional and physical strain causedby our response to pressure from the outside world.

How to measure stress?• Questionnaire, e.g.
– Demand/control– Effort /reward– COPSOQ– Perceived stress and energy
• Observations• Bodily reactions to stress
(physiological reactions), e.g.– cortisol in saliva– adrenaline and noradrenaline in urine

The sympathetic nervous system
• Adrenaline/noradrenaline increase
• Heart frequency increase
• Blood pressure increase
• More blood to the muscles
• Less blood to the skin
• Low digestion
• Increased brain activity

Sleep problems -> illness• Increased risk of heart disease
– Review of 10 studies– High quality studies found increased risk of
coronary events after adjusting for age and otherrisk factors
– The combined risk was 1.7 (range 1.5 -3.9)• Increased risk of diabetes
– 6599 non-diabetic men at baseline, aged 44.5 ±4.0 years
– 281 (4.3%) developed diabetes during follow-up(14.8 years)
– Men with difficulties falling asleep or regular use of hypnotics had increased risk of 1.52 [95% CI: 1.05-2.20] Schwarts S et al., J Psychosom Res, 1999
