Understanding health related beliefs and behaviours has widespread application in disease prevention and management (applied as health promotion)....
Health psychology is an important field, the problem is that most people in the field are simply questionnaire wielding idiots. The main problem,...
Isn't it primarily a sympathetic trigger? "Apnea-Induced Cortical BOLD-fMRI and Peripheral Sympathoneural Firing Response Patterns of Awake...
Interesting, but I think you said it best: The metabolism of lymphocytes themselves can be quite different to the muscle too.
