Correlation analysis of cortisol concentration in hair versus concentrations in serum, saliva, and urine

Abstract: Introduction: Cortisol concentration is measured in blood, urine, and saliva samples. It has been recently proven that cortisol could also be detected in hair samples. Cortisol measurements in different samples have their own individual characteristics and clinical utility. We aimed to investigate the correlation between hair cortisol concentration and standard cortisol measurements used in clinical practice. Material and methods: Fifty adult volunteers with a negative history of endocrine disorders were enrol… Show more

“…Alternatively, this high heterogeneity might result from the wide range of measures used to assess stress and anxiety across studies. Indeed, these measures were found to have varying psychometric properties and be differently associated with one another and with children's cognitive outcomes, making these instruments not interchangeable (Cieszyński et al, 2020 ; Epel et al, 2018 ; Graignic‐Philippe et al, 2014 ; Nast et al, 2013 ; Short et al, 2016 ; Vanaelst et al, 2012 ). Lastly, due to the sampling of the studies included in this meta‐analysis, our findings are mainly based on studies conducted with White populations.…”

“…Disorders of the HPA axis and chronically elevated cortisol levels have been associated with various health conditions, including hypertension [27], insulin resistance[28], dyslipidemia [29], and obesity [30]. At present, the predominant matrices for cortisol examination include blood [31], urine [32,33], saliva [34,35], and hair [36,37]. Cortisol concentrations in blood, urine, and saliva primarily re ect acute stress responses [38][39][40].…”

“…Cortisol concentrations in blood, urine, and saliva primarily re ect acute stress responses [38][39][40]. While hair cortisol concentration has expected response to longterm chronic stress [31,40]. Considering the rate of hair growth (approximately 1 cm per month), cortisol levels closer to the scalp in a hair sample represent stress levels experienced in the past month [41].…”
