Objectives and Key Themes

This study aimed to investigate the effect of temporarily examination stress on various biochemical parameters in the sera of undergraduate students. The research sought to understand the potential changes in these parameters in response to exam-related stress. Blood samples were collected from students on a normal day and again before an exam day, allowing for comparisons to be made. The research further explored the impact of various factors, such as gender, blood type, and exam performance, on these biochemical changes. This study provides valuable insights into the physiological and biochemical responses to stress, particularly within an academic context.

• The impact of temporarily examination stress on biochemical parameters in undergraduate students.
• The influence of gender, blood types, and Rh blood types on these biochemical changes.
• The relationship between the studied biochemical parameters and exam performance.
• The significance of different biochemical parameters in understanding stress responses.
• The potential implications of these findings for student well-being and academic performance.
