[Interaction of adrenocorticotropic hormone, cortisol and insulin during emotional tension among ischemic heart disease patients].
Blood levels of the adenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH), cortisol and insulin were measured in normal subjects and patients with different forms of coronary heart disease (CHD), aged 35 to 60 years and showing no signs of diabetes mellitus, obesity and arterial hypertension, under simulated emotional stress. The majority of the patients, particularly those with unfavorable course of the CHD, showed stress-induced disturbances of hormonal control due to depressed insulin levels in the presence of an insignificant ACTH increment and high cortisolemia. Hormonal rations were shown to be of predictive value in stress-exposed normal subjects and coronary patients alike.
