Propuesta conceptual para medir el efecto del estrés sobre el sistema inmune

Abstract

This article tries to demontrate the need to find an alternative way of evaluate the immune system under stress situations. This is justified considering the evidence of inconsistencies in results of many studies about the relation between stress and changes in the immune system. The analysis of this inconsistencies suggests that usual approaches can be wrong and that is the reason for a new approach. Some data from an exploratory study to evaluate the aproach proposed and the analysis of the data using two alternative procedures.
