Serum and Saliva Cortisol Responses and Blood Lactate Accumulation during Incremental Exercise Testing
Abstract
In six male physically active subjects the adrenocortical and metabolic changes in response to incremental exercise testing were investigated. Blood and saliva samples were taken at rest, at the end of every workload (duration 4 min with 50 W increment), immediately and 10 min after 1 min all out spurt on the electrically braked cycle ergometer. Both saliva and serum cortisol were measured as well as blood lactate. The cortisol response in serum and in saliva showed similar dynamics (r = 0.86, p less than 0.001, n = 50) at submaximal work. At maximal work the serum cortisol concentration showed a transitory decrease, which was not manifested in saliva. It is hypothesized that a factor related to the metabolic acidosis masks the actual adrenocortical response in the serum but not in saliva. Correlation analysis revealed a positive relation between lactate and cortisol in serum (r = 0.56, p less than 0.01, n = 50) and saliva (r = 0.70, p less than 0.01, n = 50). Apparently, salivary cortisol closely reflects plasma free cortisol level, presenting advantage over total cortisol measurements. Moreover salivary measurement will permit studies in their authentic settings and should assist attempts to understand the nature of the adrenocortical function in exercise.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
