For physiological processes in the vital organs of eutherian mammals to function, it is
important to maintain constant core body temperature at∼ 37° C. Mammals generate heat …

The application of post-exercise cooling (eg, cold water immersion) and post-exercise
heating has become a popular intervention which is assumed to increase functional …

The availability of the global thermal open database means that machine learning models
have been increasingly applied in thermal comfort studies in order to understand the factors …

Background: One of the most challenging environmental extremes is immersion in cold/icy
water, and consequent common assumption is that even a brief exposure to cold can lead to …

Hibernation is a period of metabolic suppression utilized by many small and large mammal
species to survive during winter periods. As the underlying cellular and molecular …

This article presents the development of a digital twin model of a thigh portion subjected to
various thermal treatments. Two scenarios are investigated: cold water immersion (CWI) and …

A poor outcome of whole-body hypothermia often results from a late complication, rather
than from acute effects of hypothermia. A low body (cell) temperature or the increase in the …

Objective Non-shivering thermogenesis (NST) mediated by uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) in
brown adipose tissue (BAT) can be activated via the adrenergic system in response to cold …

Human tolerance to cold environments is extremely limited and responses between
individuals is highly variable. Such physiological and morphological predispositions place …
