Possible adaptation measures for climate change in preventing heatstroke among older adults in Japan
Frontiers in Public Health, 2023 IntroductionHeatstroke mortality is highest among older adults aged 65 years and older, and the risk is even doubled among those aged 75 years and older.

One day of environment‐induced heat stress causes injury to the murine kidney
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Environment‐induced heat stress (EIHS) results from sustained body temperature elevation owing to prolonged exposure to heat and humidity. We hypothesized that EIHS would cause kidney injury and cellular dysfunction. To test this hypothesis, female C57 mice were exposed to EIHS (n = 14; 37.6°C, 42.0% relative humidity) or thermoneutral (TN ...

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Older adults with reduced thermoregulatory capabilities are increasingly at risk of heat‐related pathophysiological outcomes (e.g., acute kidney injury, heatstroke) due to increasingly frequent, prolonged and intense heatwaves. Foot immersion and neck cooling have been proposed as practical, non‐electrical cooling strategies for protecting ...

Le coup de chaleur d'exercice [Exertional heatstroke]
, 2012 Exertional heatstroke is defined by an increase of core body temperature above 40 degrees C and neurological symptoms in association with exercise. It is related to excessive heat production, which overwhelms the endogenous mechanisms of thermoregulation.

Cerebrovascular regulation during heat stress
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Given that the brain is a highly metabolic organ and is enclosed by the skull, effective regulation of cerebral blood flow (CBF), not only for oxygen and nutrients supply but also as a means of convective heat exchange, is critical for preventing excessive elevations in brain temperature.

Glutamine Metabolism in Health and Diseases
MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 10, October 2026.Glutamine metabolism acts as a metabolic hub connecting cellular stress adaptation, immune regulation, and disease development. Through regulating energy production, biosynthesis, redox balance, and nitrogen metabolism, glutamine supports cellular homeostasis under physiological and pathological conditions.

An anesthetized dog heatstroke model
, 1977 This study was undertaken to develop an anesthetized dog heatstroke model. Forty-six animals were anesthetized with pentobarbital sodium (25 mg/kg) intravenously, and maintained at an ambient temperature of (42–46 degrees C) with a water-heated blanket ...

Extreme Heat and Vulnerability in Japan Demographic and Spatial Analyses of Heatstroke [PDF]
, 2019 This master’s thesis attempts to discover demographic and spatial disparities in heatstroke deaths in Japan. The first part of analyses was conducted by demographic methods, which utilizes heatstroke deaths data classified under the ICD-10 code from 1995

Acta Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 10, October 2026.ABSTRACT Aim Repeated heat exposure may promote adaptive remodeling or cumulative tissue burden depending on thermal dose, but its graded molecular and functional consequences during recovery remain unclear. We examined whether repeated moderate (39°C) and severe (41°C) whole‐body hyperthermia produce distinct skeletal muscle trajectories involving ...
