The Automobile and Heat Stress
Pediatrics, 1976This study suggests that the thermal burden of poorly ventilated parked automobiles can be considerable, particularly when the automobiles are exposed to direct sunlight. Leaving the windows open two inches does not appear to be protective. The practice of exposing infants and toddlers to such thermal risk appears to be common and the ...

Exertional Heat Stress Disease
Acta Clinica Belgica, 1983SummaryDuring sporting events that took place under weather conditions unusual for our country, the authors observed 5 cases of exertional heat exhaustion and 4 cases of exertional heat stroke, one of which was fatal. The clinical pictures and the main biological values are summarized.

Ergonomics, 1994
Heat stress reduces the capability for sustained exercise. On the other hand, with repeated exposures to hot environments, exhaustion is delayed. This paper examines the hypothesis that high core temperature might be the ultimate cause of the fatigue and inability to continue to exercise in hot dry environmental conditions.

Heat stress: Pollen tubes ROSted by heat stress
Current BiologyMale gametophyte development is highly sensitive to elevated temperatures. A new study identifies potential drivers of reproductive thermoresilience during pollen tube growth by comparing a set of thermotolerant and thermosensitive tomato cultivars.

Estimation of heat stress in Tanzania by using ISO heat stress indices
Applied Ergonomics, 1992The aim of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of the ISO heat stress standards in estimating the heat stress and strain in workplaces in Tanzania. Another aim was to select and to develop simplified methods for measuring physiological parameters in developing countries. The methods were tested in four hot factories and at a construction site. It

Respiration in heat stressed camels
Respiration Physiology, 1987Respiration and heat exchange in relation to brain temperature (Th) and body temperature (Tb) were investigated in four heat stressed camels subjected daily to high temperature (47 degrees C) in a climate chamber while resting when hydrated and dehydrated by approximately 10%, 15% and 20% of initial weight.

Comparison of Heat Stress Indices
American Industrial Hygiene Association Journal, 1971Temperature, humidity and radiant heat in an environmental test room were varied over wide limits while five heat stress indices were measured simultaneously: Effective Temperature, Effective Temperature Corrected for Radiation, Wet Bulb Globe Temperature, Heat Stress Index, and Wet Globe Temperature. Regression equations based on 34 tests for the five

Assessment of Industrial Heat Stress
American Industrial Hygiene Association Journal, 1966Abstract The problem of assessing the thermal impact of an industrial situation is complex because of the multiplicity of other stresses which may be present in the environment. To define the problem requires, as a minimum, data on the climatic environment of the work, the demands of the job, the daily work-rest regimen, the heat exposure history, the ...
