Abstract

Stress is an important component of modern life and has been widely recognized as a factor that negatively impacts health. The aim of this research is to map the influence of stress on the physiological functions of the human body over the last five years (2019–2024) using data from the Scopus database. Bibliometric analysis was conducted with VOSviewer visualization to depict publication patterns, citations, keywords, and relation-ships between concepts. The results indicate that the United States was the country with the highest number of publications in 2019, with 110 documents. Overall, the keywords "stress", "physiology", and "body" were the most frequently used. However, the topic of "hyper-thermia", a condition where the body temperature is higher than normal, has not been extensively re-searched. This study highlights the importance of un-derstanding in greater detail the mechanisms of the body's response to stress and identifying areas that re-quire further investigation, such as hyperthermia, to ef-fectively address the impact of stress on health.

Abstract

Final-year university students are particularly vulnerable to emotional stress due to academic pressure, the demands of completing a thesis, and anxiety about entering the workforce. In such circumstances, smoking is often used as a coping mechanism, although it may adversely affect sleep quality. This study aims to analyze the relationship between emotional stress, smoking habits, and sleep quality among final-year university students. This research employed a descriptive correlational design with a cross-sectional approach. The sample consisted of 50 final-year students selected through total sampling. Data collection instruments included the Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K10) to assess emotional stress, a smoking habits questionnaire, and a sleep quality assessment via Google Forms. Data were analyzed using the Kendall Tau correlation test. The results showed a significant relationship between emotional stress and smoking habits (p<0.05), both of which were negatively correlated with sleep quality. Students with higher stress levels tended to smoke more frequently and experienced poorer sleep quality, including difficulty falling asleep and frequent nighttime awakenings. It can be concluded that emotional stress and smoking habits contribute to decreased sleep quality among students. Preventive interventions such as stress management education and smoking cessation efforts are essential to help maintain students' psychophysiological balance during the academic transition period.
