亲密伴侣暴力（IPV）是一种与PTSD相关的慢性和复发性创伤性应激源;然而，其生物学相关性尚不清楚。本研究检测了患有IPV相关PTSD的女性和暴露于IPV但未发生PTSD的女性的昼夜唾液皮质醇和血小板儿茶酚胺。与对照组相比，患有终生PTSD的女性皮质醇升高。血小板儿茶酚胺无差异。
Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a chronic and recurrent traumatic stressor associated with PTSD; however, its biological correlates are not well understood. This study examined diurnal salivary cortisol and platelet catecholamines in women with lifetime IPV-related PTSD and in women exposed to IPV who did not develop PTSD. Cortisol was elevated in women with lifetime PTSD compared to controls. No differences were found for platelet catecholamines.
