Thermoregulatory disorders and illness related to heat and cold stress
Thermoregulation is a vital function of the autonomic nervous system in response to cold and heat stress. Thermoregulatory physiology sustains health by keeping body core temperature within a degree or two of 37°C, which enables normal cellular function. Heat production and dissipation are dependent on a coordinated set of autonomic responses. The clinical detection of thermoregulatory impairme...
متن کاملComparison of heat and cold stress to assess thermoregulatory dysfunction in hypothyroid rats.
How borderline impairment of thyroid function can affect thermoregulation is an important issue because of the antithyroidal properties of a many environmental toxicants. This study compared the efficacy of heat and cold stress to identify thermoregulatory deficits in rats subjected to borderline and overt hypothyroidism via subchronic exposure to propylthiouracil (PTU). After 3 wk of exposure ...
متن کاملRisk characterization of hospitalizations for mental illness and/or behavioral disorders with concurrent heat-related illness
BACKGROUND Many studies have found significant associations between high ambient temperatures and increases in heat-related morbidity and mortality. Several studies have demonstrated that increases in heat-related hospitalizations are elevated among individuals with diagnosed mental illnesses and/or behavioral disorders (MBD). However, there are a limited number of studies regarding risk factor...
متن کاملHeat-related illness.
Heat-related illness is a set of preventable conditions ranging from mild forms (e.g., heat exhaustion, heat cramps) to potentially fatal heat stroke. Hot and humid conditions challenge cardiovascular compensatory mechanisms. Once core temperature reaches 104°F (40°C), cellular damage occurs, initiating a cascade of events that may lead to organ failure and death. Early recognition of symptoms ...
متن کاملCold and Heat Stress Diversely Alters Both
Complex proteomic and physiological approaches to study cold and heat stress 17 responses in plant mitochondria are still limited. Variations in the mitochondrial proteome of 18 cauliflower (Brassica oleracea var. botrytis) curds after cold and heat and after stress recovery were 19 assayed by 2D PAGE in relation to respiratory parameters. Quantitative analysis of the 20 mitochondrial proteome ...
