Abstrakt: | Cortisol reactivity to adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) has been associated with neuropsychological processes including attention and memory in children with asthma. While cortisol reactivity to a psychological stressor is often considered a measure of current neuroendocrine functioning, this study examines the association of the cortisol reactivity and subsequent neuropsychological functioning. Using prospective data from the Childhood Asthma Management Program (CAMP), we explored the predictive ability of cortisol reactivity to ACTH and children's later attention and memory using traditional and an alternative cortisol reactivity (normalized cortisol) measures. Cortisol reactivity was assessed at study entry and 1-year follow-up, and neuropsychological functioning was assessed at 3-year follow-up. Cortisol reactivity was assessed through plasma cortisol concentrations collected at baseline (CORT (Copyright © 2019 Dinces, Rowell, Benson, Hile, Tang and Annett.) |
