Temperature Homeostasis and Thermoregulation: Mechanisms, Control Systems, and Clinical Implications
"Temperature homeostasis, or thermoregulation, is the physiological process by which the human body maintains its internal core temperature within a tightly controlled, optimal range—typically between 36.5°C and 37.5°C (97.7°F to 99.5°F)—despite significant fluctuations in ambient environmental conditions and internal metabolic heat production. This complex balancing act relies on an integrated feedback loop involving thermal sensors, a central processing command center in the hypothalamus, and various autonomic and behavioral effector mechanisms that modulate heat gain and heat loss. 1. Introduction to Temperature Homeostasis and Thermoregula..."
