Sentences with phrase «higher hpa»

These results confirmed previous findings in animal studies, which showed higher HPA reactivity in female offspring after exposure to glucocorticoids or stress in the mother (175, 176).

However, in both sexes, higher HPA axis activity was clearly related to lower birth weights with no sex difference (174).

In general, women appear to exert higher HPA sensitivity and therefore tend to be at higher risk, than males, of diseases associated with HPA dysfunction.

Boys with high HPA reactivity and low RSA reactivity had the largest increases in internalizing problems from 16 to 19 years.

Not exact matches

Altech Chemicals have locked in their design for an expanded capacity high purity alumina (HPA) plant in Malaysia that will be capable of supplying product to a wide range of high - growth industries.

However Altech Chemicals has a significant advantage over other HPA producers because of the incredibly high purity of the Meckering deposit.

Australia Minerals and Mining Group has chosen its Meckering aluminous clay deposit as the key supply of feedstock material for its high purity alumina (HPA) project, which will be located north of Perth.

High purity alumina or «HPA» is used to manufacture synthetic sapphire wafers used in the manufacture of substrates for LED lights, semiconductors used in the electronics industry and scratch - resistant sapphire glass used for wristwatch faces, optical lenses and next generation smartphones.

It is scientifically plausible that our entire hypothalamic - pituatary - adrenal (HPA) axis, which mediates long - term stress responses and immune function, as well as short - term fight - or - flight reaction, is permanently mis - set by the continuing high stress hormone levels that ensue when newborn babies are routinely separated from their mothers.

Therefore, higher sensitivity of HPA axis may already exist in this very early period of life in female offspring.

Central hypothalamic insulin signaling interfered with negative feedback to the hypothalamus - pituitary - adrenal (HPA) axis in stressed male mice (151), which potentially explains high comorbidity rates of mental and metabolic disorders (see section V.P).

A higher reactivity of HPA axis, after prenatally prescribed glucocorticoids, was reported in female offspring between 6 and 11 years of age (173).

So basically it shuts the HPA axis and because your hormones are so high, the LH and FSH kinda go to sleep because --

If HPA axis dysfunction leads to chronically high or low cortisol levels then blood sugar imbalance may result which will then result in cravings.

Our modern society has forced us to exist in a constant state of stress due to things like: chronic illness, depression, surgery, high sugar intake and overconsumption of nutrient void foods, sleep deprivation, chronic or acute infections like H. Pylori or Candida and these stressors are a direct cause of the HPA axis dysregulation that is so prevalent today.

This paper, Effect of hypothalamic - pituitary - adrenal axis alterations on glucose and lipid metabolism in diabetic rats, reports that astragalus may improve HPA axis functioning and aid in the treatment of diabetes by lowering blood sugar and high levels of corticosterone (the rat version of cortisol).

Because astragalus is an adaptogen, it is one of many herbs that can be used to support the HPA axis, thereby helping to reduce high cortisol, and hence anxiety via another mechanism.

Chronic low - level stress keeps the HPA axis activated, much like a motor that is idling too high for too long.

The HPA axis also decreases its activity when it becomes exhausted by being in a high - stress, hyper - active mode for too long a time period.

In other words, if populations at high risk for getting chronic fatigue are analyzed, and the researchers can find no link between abnormal cortisol levels and a later risk of getting chronic fatigue syndrome, that is a good indication that cortisol levels / HPA function is not a significant causal factor.

«We are extremely proud of Mrs. Purser and the work she does for High Point Academy and her students,» said Christy Junkins, HPA Superintendent.

High Point Academy (HPA), a K — 8 public charter school in Aurora, CO, was founded on high academic standards as well as character education and community involvemHigh Point Academy (HPA), a K — 8 public charter school in Aurora, CO, was founded on high academic standards as well as character education and community involvemhigh academic standards as well as character education and community involvement.

Would it mean latent heat budget, deep / shallow convections, low - medium - high cloud cover are indifferent to the «hot spot» at 200 - 300 hPa?

However, despite near normal rates of ice loss during the month, June 2015 was a relatively warm month (Figure 7) with 925 hPa air temperatures up to 2.5 C higher than average near the North Pole and East Siberian Sea, with even warmer air temperatures in the Kara Sea (up to 4.5 C).

In the process high ozone content air is elevated to 1 hPa.

October air temperatures at the 925 hPa level (about 2,500 feet above sea level) were unusually high over most of the Arctic Ocean (Figure 2c), especially over the Beaufort and Chukchi Seas and over the East Greenland Sea (up to 8 degrees Celsius or 14 degrees Fahrenheit above the 1981 to 2010 average).

The open square marks the high amplitude of the QRA event for m = 7, when the corresponding QRA - predicted HPA event did not happen.

Alternatively look at temperatures at 850 hPa where the bulk of the moisture condenses or the actual areas of those high pressure cells.

Note in panel (a) solar forcing that, aside from the high northern latitudes, the most warming also occurs in the tropics between 200 - 300 hPa, but that unlike in panel (c) well - mixed greenhouse gasses that the warming goes all the way to TOA.

While I haven't tried this experiment myself, I foolhardedly predict that the resulting mixture will start out as supersaturated air at temperature 280 K and pressure 620 hPa with RH = 200 % (anyone who cares will have no trouble verifying this using only the specific heat numbers I've given earlier, no thermodynamic needed), and (more importantly for thermodynamics) that it will in due course become air at T = 287.7 K and P = 634.5 (higher pressure) with RH = 100 %.

We wanted to illustrate the potential of a long - term regional homogenized dataset mainly in three areas: (i) the high spatial density, which allows the study of small scale spatial variability patterns; (ii) the length of the series in the region which shows clear features concerning trends starting early in the pre-industrial period; and (iii) the vertical component in climate variability up to the 700 - hPa level.

«The North American location of increased 700 hPa positive anomalies suggests that a regional atmospheric blocking mechanism is responsible for the presence of the AD pattern, consistent with observations of unprecedented high pressure anomalies over Greenland since 2007.»

Conditions under the high pressure region were quite warm; temperatures at the 925 hPa level were up to 6 degrees Celsius (11 degrees Fahrenheit) above the 1981 to 2010 average (Figure 2c).

In the current study, we examine HPA activity within the context of a randomized intervention experiment aimed at preventing conduct problems in preschoolers at high risk for antisocial behavior.

Specifically, in the absence of findings from a comparison group at low risk for antisocial behavior, our findings could alternatively be interpreted as suggesting either that the intervention produced compensatory but abnormally high elevations in cortisol levels before peer entry or that the intervention normalizes an already perturbed HPA axis.
