Over the years some medical studies have tried to better understand the internal behavior of human beings. Many researchers in this domain have been striving to find relationships between intra-vaginal temperature and certain female health conditions, such as ovulation and fertile period since woman's intra-vaginal temperature is one of the body parameters most preferred in such studies. Howeve...

both climate change and anthropogenic impact are creating a dynamic of continuous changes in ecosystems. while the expected consequences of these changes are global, the occurrence of extreme events and specific environmental problems are usually local or regional phenomenon. in particular, the coastal ecosystems are among the first vulnerable areas to show those changes; in spite of this, are ...

Commenting on our review, Nelson writes that “extensive cohort studies indicate [body temperature] is closer to 36.5°C” than 37°C.1 The review indeed specified “normal human core body averages about 37°C,” and “there a superimposed circadian rhythm with roughly 1°C range.”2 “Normal temperature thus varies from ≈36.5°C (usually 3:00 am) ≈37.5°C pm). In premenopausal women, there are also changes...

Dr. Sessler penned an excellent review of body temperature and the implications hypothermia coagulation.1 It states that averages about 37°C. In industrial nations, recently recorded data from extensive cohort studies indicate this is closer to 36.5°C continues decline secondary changes in physical activity, composition, antibiotic usage.2 These results included adjustments for age, height, wei...

A study of core temperature monitoring during general anesthesia indicates that this can be introduced as a routine procedure in order to reduce mortality from malignant hyperpyrexia. The temperature profiles of 2410 patients are presented. Both mean rectal and mean oesophageal temperatures decreased during general anaesthesia. The mean oesophageal temperatures were on average 0.6 degrees C les...

Most clinically available thermometers accurately report the temperature of whatever tissue is being measured. The difficulty is that no reliably core-temperature-measuring sites are completely noninvasive and easy to use-especially in patients not undergoing general anesthesia. Nonetheless, temperature can be reliably measured in most patients. Body temperature should be measured in patients u...
