Recognition of adaptive stress response patterns in adolescents based on multiple hair biomarkers.
Article in Frontiers in psychology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background: The Adaptive Calibration Model (ACM) explains how individuals' stress response systems (SRS) develop different calibration patterns under environmental stress, subsequently shaping physiological responses and behavioral strategies during growth. However, research on adaptive stress response patterns has yielded inconsistent results across studies, warranting further investigation. Methods: This study used hair cortisol, cortisol/DHEA ratio (CD), and cortisol/cortisone ratio (CC) as biomarkers reflecting multidimensional functional indicators of Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal (HPA) axis adaptation. Latent profile analysis identified heterogeneous stress adaptation patterns in adolescents ( Results: A 4-profile solution was selected based on theoretical interpretability. The buffered profile was most prevalent (35.5%). Children from disadvantaged backgrounds, compared to non- disadvantaged children, were characterized by a significantly higher proportion of the vigilant profile. However, no significant differences in depression scores were found among the different stress adaptation patterns. Conclusion: This study provides the first validation of ACM-proposed stress adaptation patterns from multidimensional functional indicators of HPA axis functional perspective. Early disadvantaged environments appear to promote vigilant stress adaptation patterns. These findings provide valuable reference for future mechanism analysis and intervention development for stress-related conditions in adolescents.
