Summary
This study looked at how a stress hormone called ACTH affects the body's automatic nervous system, which controls things like heart rate and blood pressure. Researchers gave 23 healthy adults either the hormone or a placebo and measured changes in their nervous system. The goal was to understand the link between stress and delayed changes in body control, not to treat any disease.
