“…Findings on increased catecholaminergic or sympathetic nervous system (SNS) activity in PTSD are fairly consistent across studies. First, combat veterans with PTSD show significantly higher 24-h urinary excretion and plasma concentrations of catecholamines, such as noradrenaline (NE), adrenaline, and dopamine, than normal controls, other psychiatric patients, or combat veterans without PTSD (Kosten et al 1987;Mason et al 1988;Yehuda et al 1992;Hammer and Diamond 1993;Lemieux and Coe 1995;Yatham et al 1996). Second, combat veterans show a significantly higher rise than normal volunteers in plasma NE and peripheral SNS activity following acute laboratory stressors with stimuli reminiscent of the trauma (Blanchard et al 1991;Krystal et al 1989 (Perry et al 1987).…”

“…Catecholamine studies have produced variable results. Tonic secretion has been elevated in some studies (Kosten et al 1987); whereas, baseline measures were found normal in others (Murburg et al 1994b). Blanchard (Blanchard et al 1991a) reported enhanced plasma norepinephrine (NE) responses to traumatic stimuli; whereas, others (McFall et al 1990;Murburg et al 1994a) found enhanced epinephrine (Epi), but not norepinephrine, reponses.…”

“…16 No THB, a atividade noradrenérgica apresenta-se maior na mania do que na depressão. 17 Além disso, estudos mostram que pacientes maníacos agudos não medicados apresentam elevação nas concentrações de noradrenalina no líquido céfalo raquidiano (LCR) e de seus metabólitos na urina.…”
