Thermoregulation and age

2018
The thermoregulatory functions may vary with age. Thermosensitivity is active in neonates and children; both heat production and heat loss effector mechanisms are functional but easily exhaustable. Proportional and lasting defense against thermal challenges is difficult, and both hypothermia and hyperthermia may easily develop.

Thermoregulation in epilepsy

2018
Several aspects of thermoregulation play a role in epilepsy. Circuitries involved in thermoregulation are affected by seizures and epilepsy, hyperthermia may be both cause and result of seizures, and hypothermia may prevent or abort seizures. Autonomic manifestations of seizures including thermoregulatory disturbances are common in a variety of ...

Yawning and thermoregulation

Physiology & Behavior, 2008
We review a growing body of medical and physiological evidence indicating that yawning may be a thermoregulatory mechanism, providing compensatory cooling when other provisions fail to operate favorably. Conditions such as multiple sclerosis, migraine headaches, epilepsy, stress and anxiety, and schizophrenia have all be linked to thermoregulatory ...

Thermoregulation and nausea

2018
The major symptoms of motion sickness are well known and include facial pallor, nausea and vomiting, and sweating, but it is poorly recognized that they actually reflect severely perturbed thermoregulation. Thus, the purpose of this chapter is to present and discuss existing data related to this subject.

Obesity and thermoregulation

2018
Excised fat tissue has a lower thermal conductivity than excised lean tissue. In theory then subcutaneous fat might serve as a barrier to heat loss and influence thermoregulatory abilities. In some aquatic mammals and animals from severely cold habitats subcutaneous adipose tissue has evolved into a continuous sheet that envelopes the organs and acts ...

Physiology of Thermoregulation

Best Practice & Research Clinical Anaesthesiology, 2008
Core body temperature is one of the most tightly regulated parameters of human physiology. At any given time, body temperature differs from the expected value by no more than a few tenths of a degree. However, slight daily variations are due to circadian rhythm, and, in women, monthly variations are due to their menstrual cycle.

Thermoregulation in neuropathies

2018
Peripheral neuropathy affecting autonomic and small sensory fibers can cause abnormalities of both autonomic and behavioral thermoregulation. Quantitative autonomic and sensory neurophysiologic tests and quantification of the linear density of intraepidermal nerve fibers potentially can stratify those at risk of impaired thermoregulation during cold ...

MCH and Thermoregulation

2018
Homeothermy represents a remarkable step in animal evolution, albeit at a very high cost in terms of metabolic demand. The maintenance of core body temperature in mammals represents one of the prominent physiological components contributing to the basal metabolic rate.
