Body Temperature Regulation in Hot Environments. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Organisms in hot environments will not be able to passively dissipate metabolically generated heat. Instead, they have to revert to evaporative cooling, a process that is energetically expensive and promotes excessive water loss. To alleviate these costs,

Body temperature regulation in diabetes. [PDF]
Temperature (Austin), 2016 The effects of type 1 and type 2 diabetes on the body's physiological response to thermal stress is a relatively new topic in research. Diabetes tends to place individuals at greater risk for heat-related illness during heat waves and physical activity due to an impaired capacity to dissipate heat.

Preoptic leptin signaling modulates energy balance independent of body temperature regulation [PDF]
eLife, 2018 The adipokine leptin acts on the brain to regulate energy balance but specific functions in many brain areas remain poorly understood. Among these, the preoptic area (POA) is well known to regulate core body temperature by controlling brown fat ...

Newborn’s body temperature regulation: a multi-method training program [PDF]
Journal of Research in Clinical Medicine, 2021 Introduction: Newborns’ incapability to self-regulate their body temperature exposes them torisk of many complications. Therefore, proper initiations of nursing interventions are crucial for ensuring early stabilization after birth.
