A comparison of salivary cortisol in chronic fatigue syndrome, community depression and healthy controls.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:Previous studies reporting cortisol hyposecretion in chronic fatigue syndrome may have been confounded by venepuncture, fasting and hospitalisation. METHODS:Morning and evening salivary cortisol were obtained on consecutive days in the first 3 days of the menstrual cycle and compared in three samples of women taking no medication and matched for age: 14 patients with chronic fatigue syndrome, 26 community cases of ICD-10 current depressive episodes and 131 healthy community controls. RESULTS:The mean evening cortisol was significantly lower in the chronic fatigue syndrome patients compared to controls with depression (P = 0.02) and healthy controls (P = 0.005). Chronic fatigue syndrome patients without psychiatric disorder had significantly lower morning salivary cortisols compared to controls (P = 0.009). CONCLUSION:Chronic fatigue syndrome patients display cortisol hyposecretion in saliva as well as plasma compared to patients with depression and healthy controls. LIMITATIONS:Small samples of female patients with cortisol estimated at only two time points in the day. Cortisol secretion may be secondary to other neurotransmitter abnormalities or other physiological or lifestyle factors in chronic fatigue syndrome patients. CLINICAL RELEVANCE:Chronic fatigue syndrome is biochemically distinct from community depression.
