DOI: 10.1002/erv.2896
Abstract: Abstract Introduction Increasing neurobiological evidence has suggested the presence of a specific ecophenotype in people with eating disorders (EDs) linked to early maltreatment. Urinary‐free cortisol could strengthen the data and show specific relationships between maltreated… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jevs.2021.103810
Abstract: Mechanisms resulting in breed predispositions to insulin dysregulation (ID) are poorly characterized. Cortisol antagonizes insulin, and free, biologically active cortisol can be increased in ID. Breed-related differences in serum free cortisol fraction (FCF) could contribute to… read more here.

DOI: 10.3803/enm.2022.1549
Abstract: Accurate measurement of cortisol is critical in adrenal insufficiency as it reduces the risk associated with misdiagnosis and supports the optimization of stress dose. Comprehensive assays have been developed to determine the levels of bioactive… read more here.
