Salivary cortisol in two professions: daily cortisol profiles in school teachers and firefighters

Original language description

We tried to assesss salivary cortisol levels in two proffesions with a high occupational stress. The study population consisted of 142 school teachers and 136 firefighters. Four saliva samples were collected from our participants during the whole workingday. The cortisol measures used were: morning values, evening values, slope of decline, ratio (evening value divided by morning value), and area under the curve (AUC). The salivary cortisol measurements in male and female teachers were almost equal regarding morning values, slope, and AUC increase. Evening values were lower and the relative reactivity was higher (lower ratio) for female teachers, compared to male teachers. There was a tendency of a lower total daytime output of cortisol (AUC ground) among female teachers. Firefighters had lower levels of cortisol, lower total daytime output, and higher relative reactivity (lower ratio), but lower absolute reactivity, regarding both slope and AUC increase. Conclusion: Male teachers migh
