Health Chatter · PTSD in Young Women · 6 Jun 2025 podcast

And your peers here, we chose to recruit women who have been exposed to trauma

but did not develop PTSD as a control group.

So everybody who come to my lab have had exposure to trauma.

Some did not develop PTSD, others did.

And so our flyers do not mention PTSD actually.

Our flyers mentioned trauma.

you they self uh um report their own diagnosis mental health diagnosis so yes we the jury's still out of that we want to see what's happening but on the vascular side i want to say this because we have already published data on the vascular side how the blood vessel responds we saw that in response to stress these young women have higher vascular construction it's like you're

At rest, we saw that the vessel was a little bit stiffer already.

So we saw that in response to stress, there was an increased visual constriction.

So I wanted to add to the question Dr. Bain asked regarding like this overload.

When I was a PhD student, I study black men, black young men,

And I compared them to Caucasian young men.

Because we know that race, family history of hypertension, those are considered at least racist and non-modifiable risk factor for hypertension and family history of hypertension to age.

You can change your family history.

So what we saw is that in young men, contrary to what I thought,

I thought that young black men with a family history of hypertension, that young black men with a family history of hypertension will have a higher MSNA response.

MSNA is the fight or flight.

But what we saw was actually the opposite of what we expected.

as if there was a ceiling effect.

So at rest, this young black male had higher fight or flight response than the Caucasian age match counterpart.
