CURRENT STUDIES IN THERMOREGULATION

Pensar en Movimiento, 2014
The aim of this review is to present recent advances in the understanding of the physiological mechanisms of thermoregulation in mammals, which can be divided into two types including reflex (or autonomic) and behavioral thermoregulation.

The use of cork in the thermoregulation of the hive: an innovation attempt to enhance non-wood products and beekeeping in Mediterranean forests

Annals of Silvicultural Research, 2020
Hive thermoregulation is fundamental for the normal development of bee colonies and, consequently, hive productivity and honey bee health. External conditions mainly affect the walls of the hive.

Brood thermoregulation effectiveness is positively linked to the amount of brood but not to the number of bees in honeybee colonies

Peer Community Journal, 2023
To ensure the optimal development of brood, a honeybee colony needs to regulate its temperature within a certain range of values (thermoregulation), regardless of environmental changes in biotic and abiotic factors.

The Thermoregulation Story [PDF]

Anesthesiology, 2013
Although suppression of thermoregulatory mechanisms by anesthetics is generally assumed, the extent to which thermoregulation is active during general anesthesia is not known. The only thermoregulatory responses available to anesthetized, hypothermic patients are vasoconstriction and nonshivering thermogenesis.

Global warming threatens human thermoregulation and survival.

Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2020
There is overwhelming evidence showing that human activities have contributed to global warming over the past century. Global warming has a severe impact on food and water supplies, housing and other infrastructure, health, and economic activities.

In silico evaluation of the thermal stress induced by MRI switched gradient fields in patients with metallic hip implant [PDF]

, 2019
This work focuses on the in silico evaluation of the energy deposed by MRI switched gradient fields in bulk metallic implants and the consequent temperature increase in the surrounding tissues. An original computational strategy, based on the subdivision

Challenges of measuring body temperatures of free-ranging birds and mammals [PDF]

, 2015
The thermal physiology of most birds and mammals is characterised by considerable spatial and temporal variation in body temperature. Body temperature is, therefore, a key parameter in physiological, behavioural and ecological research.

Impairments to Thermoregulation in the Elderly During Heat Exposure Events

Gerontology and Geriatric Medicine, 2020
Heat waves represent a public health risk to elderly people, and typically result in an increased rate of hospital admissions and deaths. Studies of thermoregulation in this cohort have generally focused on single elements such as sweating capacity ...
