Impaired thermoregulatory function during dynamic exercise in multiple sclerosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
INTRODUCTION: Impairments in sudomotor function during passive whole-body heating have been reported in multiple sclerosis (MS), a demyelinating disease of the CNS that disrupts autonomic function.

Protracted effects of chronic stress on serotonin-dependent thermoregulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Chronic stress is known to affect serotonin (5HT) neurotransmission in the brain and to alter body temperature. The body temperature is controlled in part, by the medial preoptic area (mPOA) of the hypothalamus.

The effect of thermal insulation pads on heat flux, physical effort and perceived exertion during endurance exercise in cool environments

open access: yesFashion and Textiles, 2018
To determine the effects of thermal insulation pads on clothing surface temperature, physical effort and perceived exertion during endurance exercise in cool environments two different pants (PCOOL, PINSUL) were designed: PCOOL (Insulation: 0.055 clo ...

Fever and Infection in the Neurosurgical Intensive Care Unit [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Fever is an adaptive response to a variety of infectious, inflammatory, and foreign stimuli. The “febrile response” confers an immunological advantage to the host over invading microorganisms – bacterial, fungal and viral.

Circadian Oscillations in the Murine Preoptic Area Are Reset by Temperature, but Not Light

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2022
Mammals maintain their internal body temperature within a physiologically optimal range. This involves the regulation of core body temperature in response to changing environmental temperatures and a natural circadian oscillation of internal temperatures.

Aerobic power, huddling and the efficiency of torpor in the South American marsupial, Dromiciops gliroides. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
During periods of cold, small endotherms depend on a continuous supply of food and energy to maintain euthermic body temperature (T(b)), which can be challenging if food is limited. In these conditions, energy-saving strategies are critical to reduce the

Considerations for the measurement of core, skin and mean body temperatures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Despite previous reviews and commentaries, significant misconceptions remain concerning deep-body (core) and skin temperature measurement in humans. Therefore, the authors have assembled the pertinent Laws of Thermodynamics and other first principles ...
