  • Title: Examination stress: changes in serum cholesterol, triglycerides and total lipids.
    Author: Agarwal V, Gupta B, Singhal U, Bajpai SK.
    Journal: Indian J Physiol Pharmacol; 1997 Oct; 41(4):404-8. PubMed ID: 10235664.
    Abstract:
    Serum cholesterol, triglycerides and total lipids were estimated in twelve students exposed to varying degree of examination stress. Serum cholesterol and triglycerides exhibited a rise proportional to degree of examination stress whereas total lipids exhibited an initial rise followed by a fall. Values of all these parameters attained control level when the stress was over. The rise in serum cholesterol and triglycerides seems to be due to stress induced changes in hormonal levels and peripheral lipolysis respectively.
