Measurement of human brain temperature changes during cooling
Introduction Therapeutic brain hypothermia is used with increasing frequency as a tool to mitigate neurologic injury [1]. It has been shown that moderate cooling of the brain after hypoxia-ischemia can reduce damage and improve functional outcome [2, 3]. Recently a new method for selective brain cooling was described and prototype device was tested on the pigs [4, 5]. Brain temperature decreasi...
متن کاملCold-Blooded Attention: Finger Temperature Predicts Attentional Performance
Thermal stress has been shown to increase the chances of unsafe behavior during industrial and driving performances due to reductions in mental and attentional resources. Nonetheless, establishing appropriate safety standards regarding environmental temperature has been a major problem, as modulations are also be affected by the task type, complexity, workload, duration, and previous experience...
متن کاملA mathematical model for human brain cooling during cold-water near-drowning.
A two-dimensional mathematical model was developed to estimate the contributions of different mechanisms of brain cooling during cold-water near-drowning. Mechanisms include 1) conductive heat loss through tissue to the water at the head surface and in the upper airway and 2) circulatory cooling to aspirated water via the lung and via venous return from the scalp. The model accounts for changes...
متن کاملMurder or Not? Cold Temperature Makes Criminals Appear to Be Cold-Blooded and Warm Temperature to Be Hot-Headed
Temperature-related words such as cold-blooded and hot-headed can be used to describe criminal behavior. Words associated with coldness describe premeditated behavior and words associated with heat describe impulsive behavior. Building on recent research about the close interplay between physical and interpersonal coldness and warmth, we examined in a lab experiment how ambient temperature with...
متن کاملThe Immunoglobulins of Cold-Blooded Vertebrates
Although lymphocyte-like cells secreting somatically-recombining receptors have been identified in the jawless fishes (hagfish and lamprey), the cartilaginous fishes (sharks, skates, rays and chimaera) are the most phylogenetically distant group relative to mammals in which bona fide immunoglobulins (Igs) have been found. Studies of the antibodies and humoral immune responses of cartilaginous f...
