Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Covid-19
Recent increasing rates of COVID-19 cases, hospitalizations, and deaths among non-Hispanic Whites have led to declining rate ratios at a time of continuing high burden of COVID-19 in American Indian/Alaska Native, Asian/Pacific Islander, African American, and Hispanic/Latino populations. The use of all epidemiological tools, including rate ratios and actual rates per 100,000 population, provides a more comprehensive assessment of the magnitude an…
The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute Strategic Vision Implementation for Health Equity Research
The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) provides global leadership for a research, training, and education program to promote the prevention and treatment of heart, lung, and blood diseases and enhance the health of all individuals so that they can live longer and more fulfilling lives. Inherent in this mission is the commitment to advance health equity research as an avenue for enhancing the health of all individuals. Additionally,…
Cardiovascular disease
Although deaths due to cardiovascular diseases have declined significantly since the 1970s, they remain the most common cause of morbidity and mortality in the United States. A large number of cardiovascular risk factors, such as smoking, obesity, and sedentary lifestyle, are modifiable. Psychologists and other behavioral scientists and practitioners are engaged in not only understanding the mechanistic links between behaviors and cardiovascular …
Assessing psychological well-being
Social Support Versus Social Evaluation
Objectives: This study examined the effects of companion presence and evaluation on cardiovascular reactivity to an acute stressor. Methods: Eighty-two women completed a speech task in one of four conditions: with an evaluative companion present, with a nonevaluative companion present, alone while being evaluated by a companion with a video camera, or alone while the companion waited outside. Results: A significant interaction between companion c…
Hostility and the Metabolic Syndrome in Older Males
OBJECTIVE: Several studies have shown that hostility, as measured by the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-derived Cook-Medley Hostility Scale (Ho), is positively associated with several cardiovascular risk factors, possibly accounting for the relationship between Ho scores and cardiovascular mortality. This study was undertaken to examine associations between hostility and cardiovascular risk factors representing the metabolic syndrome…
Depressed Mood Is Related to High-Frequency Heart Rate Variability During Stressors
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to examine the relationships between depressed mood and parasympathetic control of the heart in healthy men and women at rest and during two stressors. METHODS: Fifty-three healthy college students completed a laboratory stress protocol that included a baseline resting period, a challenging speech task, and a forehead cold pressor task. Depressed mood was assessed using the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI).…
Are cardiovascular reactors to asocial stress also reactors to social stress
The authors tested the generalizability of measures of cardiovascular reactivity to asocial and social stress among fathers, mothers, and their adolescent sons. Results showed significant associations between reactivity to individual psychomotor tasks and to conflict resolution only for mothers, suggesting that laboratory measures of reactivity obtained during asocial tasks are of limited value in predicting reactivity during social tasks. Given …
Hemodynamic adjustments to laboratory stress
Exaggerated cardiovascular reactivity to psychological stress is a potential pathophysiological mechanism linking behavior and cardiovascular disease. Because of the recognized gender differences in incidence of cardiovascular disease, potential gender differences in cardiovascular reactivity to laboratory stressors have been evaluated. The current study examined the cardiovascular responses of a total of 42 young women (N = 22) and men (N = 20) …
Do cardiovascular responses to laboratory stress relate to ambulatory blood pressure levels
Because the correspondence between laboratory measures of blood pressure and heart rate responses to stress and ambulatory measures is less than optimal, this study tested two hypotheses: Are ambulatory measures of blood pressure elevated during periods of perceived stress, relative to no stress? Are ambulatory blood pressures elevated during perceived stress among those individuals who exhibit elevated blood pressure and heart rate responses to …
Influences of sex and age on cardiovascular responses during stress
The present investigation examined the influence of sex and age on blood pressure and heart rate responses in 125 women, 93 men, 121 girls, and 96 boys to three standardized stressors: serial subtraction, mirror-image tracing, and isometric handgrip. With baseline measures and body mass index controlled for, analyses of covariance showed that adults had greater systolic blood pressure responses than did children; men had greater blood pressure re…
Familial aggregation of blood pressure and heart rate responses during behavioral stress
Parent-offspring and sibling resemblances in blood pressure and heart rate responses to behavioral stress were evaluated in a sample of 142 families residing in an upper-middle-class community in the Pittsburgh metropolitan area between 1983 and 1985. The sample consisted of 121 daughters and 96 sons ranging in age from 7 to 18 years, and 141 mothers and 119 fathers ranging in age from 31 to 62 years. Three stressors were presented to all partici…
A comparison of biofeedback-assisted cardiodeceleration in type A and B men
The primary purpose of this experiment was to examine the cardiac effects of instructions and biofeedback to reduce heart rate during both rest and a behavioral stressor. A second purpose was to assess respiratory, hemodynamic, and metabolic function in conjunction with heart rate. A final aim was to compare the effects of biofeedback on Type A and B men. Type A subjects fell in the upper 10% of the distribution of Jenkin's Activity Survey scores…
