TAP reading note: How the Acute Psychosocial Stress Response Ends: A Post-Stressor Transition Model of Glucocorticoid Feedback, Vagal Re-Engagement, and Frontolimbic Context Updating
Proposes a post-stressor transition model linking threat-context updating, cardiac vagal regulation and continuing HPA output. Distinguishes event offset, system-specific resolution and demonstrated adaptation, with testable propositions.

What the study found
Proposes a post-stressor transition model linking threat-context updating, cardiac vagal regulation and continuing HPA output. Distinguishes event offset, system-specific resolution and demonstrated adaptation, with testable propositions.
Scope & limitations
Structured narrative synthesis focused mainly on adult psychosocial-stress paradigms, drawing on several evidence levels.
A proposed framework, not a newly discovered biological system or clinically validated score. Added model parameters require identifiable measurement, independent prediction and experimental tests.
Population & sample
Structured narrative synthesis focused mainly on adult psychosocial-stress paradigms, drawing on several evidence levels.
Exposure or intervention
Post-stressor hormonal, autonomic, neural, cognitive and immune processes.
Outcomes
Mechanistic hypotheses, competing explanations and measurement recommendations.
Time frame
Published 12 October 2026; timescales depend on the system.
Research funding
Authors report no external funding; acknowledge institutional support from Henan Provincial People’s Hospital and Sichuan Academy of Medical Sciences–Sichuan Provincial People’s Hospital.
Research conflicts of interest
The authors declare no competing interests.
