Abstract: Stressful life events, particularly traumatic events, can produce a considerable if not significant stress, inducing insulin resistance and potentially type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) secondary to hypercortisolism. However, the literature on individuals with Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) or trauma exposure (TE) is inconclusive as to whether such conditions result in hyper- or hypocortisolism .
