From:Canadian Journal of Physiology and Pharmacology (Vol. 85, Issue 12) Peer-ReviewedAbstract: Transient global ischemia (ISC) in rats and humans causes selective and delayed neuronal death in the hippocampal CA1 sector. It is clear from rodent studies that hyperthermia aggravates, whereas hypothermia...

Thermal biology of rocky intertidal mussels: quantifying body temperatures using climatological data
Despite numerous studies demonstrating the importance of body temperature to the fitness of intertidal invertebrates, surprisingly little is known of what these temperatures are under normal field conditions. Using... -
From:The Practitioner (Vol. 254, Issue 1725) Peer-ReviewedChilblains (perniosis) occur predominantly on the toes and fingers as a result of exposure to cold. Other areas may also be affected such as the fatty prominences of the thighs and the inner aspects of the knees. The...

From:Scandinavian Journal of Trauma, Resuscitation and Emergency Medicine (Vol. 23, Issue 91) Peer-ReviewedBackground Epitympanic temperature (T.sub.ty) measured with thermistor probes correlates with core body temperature (T.sub.core), but the reliability of measurements at low ambient temperature is unknown. The aim of...
