Abstract

OBJECTIVE: Certain brain activation responses to psychological stress are associated with worse outcomes in CVD patients. We hypothesized that elevated acute psychological stress, manifesting as greater activity within neural centers for emotional regulation, mobilizes CPC from the bone marrow to the peripheral blood and predicts future cardiovascular events.
