A Tympanic Membrane Temperature Measurement Technique for Birds

Poultry Science, 1974
Abstract Since the reliability of rectal temperature as a true indicator of rapid changes in body temperature has been questioned, the tympanic membrane has been proposed to be a more appropriate site for temperature measurement. The tympanic membrane is relatively close to the hypothalamus which is considered to be the location of the ...

Passive thigh heating improves peak force production in younger adults and early isokinetic force production in younger and older adults

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Older adults often suffer from reduced physical capability relative to young adults, in part due to impaired muscle function. This study investigated the ergogenic effects of passive thigh heating on knee extensor torque production in healthy older versus younger adults.

Comparison of the estimated incidence of acute leptospirosis in the Kilimanjaro Region of Tanzania between 2007-08 and 2012-14 [PDF]

, 2016
Background: The sole report of annual leptospirosis incidence in continental Africa of 75–102 cases per 100,000 population is from a study performed in August 2007 through September 2008 in the Kilimanjaro Region of Tanzania. To evaluate the stability

Long‐term passive heat acclimation enhances maximal oxygen consumption via haematological and cardiac adaptation in endurance runners

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Figure Legend Endurance‐trained runners completed a 5‐week hot‐water‐immersion (HWI) intervention (≥40°C, 45 min, five sessions per week) and a training‐matched control period in a cross‐over design. HWI induced a 33 g increase in haemoglobin mass (Hbmass) and a 10 mL expansion in left‐ventricular end‐diastolic volume (LVEDV), resulting in a 2.

Development and validation of an environmental heat strain risk assessment (EHSRA) index using structural equation modeling based on empirical relations

Environmental Health and Preventive Medicine, 2020
Background Need to a simple, available, accurate, comprehensive, and valid indicator is felt to assess thermal effects. Therefore, the present study was aimed to develop and validate the environmental heat strain risk assessment (EHSRA) index using ...

Bioactive ceramic-reinforced composites for bone augmentation [PDF]

, 2010
Biomaterials have been used to repair the human body for millennia, but it is only since the 1970s that man-made composites have been used. Hydroxyapatite (HA)-reinforced polyethylene (PE) is the first of the ‘second-generation’ biomaterials that have ...

Development of the occipitopetrosal junctions: A histological study using human fetuses

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 2, Page 333-345, February 2026.
Abstract The temporal bone petrosa is connected to the occipital bone at two sites: one junction with the basilar part (medial junction) and another with the lateral part (lateral junction). Using histological specimens from 45 human fetuses (approximately 7–39 weeks of gestational age or GA), we aimed to describe possible changes in histology and ...

Head cooling during sleep improves sleep quality in the luteal phase in female university students: A randomized crossover-controlled pilot study.

PLoS ONE, 2019
Although selective head-cooling has been reported to decrease scalp and tympanic temperature and improve sleep quality, whether head-cooling during sleep can improve sleep quality in women during the luteal phase has not been elucidated. This randomized,

Aerobic Exercise Promotes Hippocampal Neurogenesis and Ameliorates Cognitive Dysfunction Induced by Unilateral Labyrinthectomy

CNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 2, February 2026.
UL induced significant spatial and non‐spatial cognitive dysfunction and hippocampal neurogenesis inhibition, whereas aerobic exercise intervention effectively reversed these impairments. Transcriptomic profiling and pharmacological evidence identified MHC class I/II–related pathways (H2‐K1, H2‐Eb1, CD74) as key mediators of the restorative effects of ...
