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

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

An approach that helps break down gender stereotypes: Research and Commentary [PDF]
Globally, the use of the skin to skin (STS) contact, also known as kangaroo care, has become widely used within neonatal units. Evidence suggests that STS has a number of significant benefits for both premature infants and their parents. Benefits include
