Stress

8.8K
When a force is applied on a body, it undergoes deformation. In order to restore the body to its original shape and/or size, an opposite or restoring force is generated within the body. This restoring force is equal to the magnitude of the applied force, but acts in the opposite direction. The amount of this restoring force developed per unit area of the body is called stress. Stress is a tensor quantity and has the SI unit pascal. Stress can be separated into four broad categories depending...

General State of Stress01:21

General State of Stress

672
The general state of stress within a material can be accurately depicted using a stress tensor. This tensor encapsulates the internal forces distributed within a material subjected to external forces or deformations.
Specifically, consider a tetrahedral element where one face, labeled XYZ, is perpendicular to the line OA, and the remaining faces align with the coordinate axes with point O as the origin. At any point, such as point O, the stress tensor can be used to determine the stress...

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Psychology
  • Psychoneuroimmunology

Background:

  • Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin condition with complex etiological factors.
  • The interplay between psychological stress and psoriasis pathogenesis is increasingly recognized.
  • Patient-reported data indicates a substantial link between stress and psoriasis onset or exacerbation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To conduct a comprehensive literature review on the relationship between stress and psoriasis.
  • To synthesize evidence on stress as a trigger and consequence of psoriasis.
  • To evaluate the efficacy of stress-management interventions in psoriasis treatment.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic review of existing literature.
  • Analysis of studies investigating stress triggers in psoriasis.
  • Evaluation of research on stress management techniques for psoriasis patients.

Main Results:

  • Stress is reported as a trigger for psoriasis in 31-88% of cases.
  • A history of stressful events correlates with a higher incidence of psoriasis in susceptible individuals.
  • Stress management interventions, including relaxation, hypnosis, and cognitive behavioral therapy, show effectiveness.

Conclusions:

  • Stress plays a significant role in both triggering and exacerbating psoriasis.
  • Targeting stress is an appropriate and effective component of comprehensive psoriasis management.
  • Evidence supports the use of various stress-reduction therapies for individuals with psoriasis.
