The experiment on 140 albino mice examined the relationship between the pulmonary thermogenesis and the functional activity of the hypophyseal-thyroid system at different stages of pulmonary tuberculous inflammation development, during Staphylococcus-induced pneumonia, aseptic inflammation in lung tissue. Deep abnormalities of the heat-generating function of the lung were revealed just at the early periods of specific inflammation. The degree of hypothermal reactions of lung tissue correlated with the inhibition of hypophyseal-thyroidal function at all developmental stages of a tuberculous process. The changes were rather pronounced, stable and phasic. Spontaneous regression of the tuberculous process was not accompanied by recovery in the activity of the hypophyseal-thyroidal system, despite the fact that there was a clear-cut trend to normalization of pulmonary thermogenesis.

The psycho-neuro-immuno-endocrine/enteric (PNIE) axis is a fundamental concept in neuroscience, integral to the neuroendocrine system (NES). It encompasses the interactions between behavior, neurology, endocrinology, gut biology, and the immune system. These interactions regulate crucial metabolic processes like glucose, lipid, and protein metabolism, blood pressure, and various homeostatic functions, including blood pressure regulation, thermogenesis and pulmonary hypoxia detection.

Introduction: Shivering affects 52 % of patients undergoing caesarean delivery under neuraxial anaesthesia. Despite extensive research focused on its prevention, there is still no consensus regarding optimal pharmacological treatment. This systematic review and network meta-analysis aims to compare available intravenous treatments of perioperative shivering in patients undergoing caesarean delivery under neuraxial anaesthesia.

Background: Thermogenesis is influenced by fluctuations in sex hormones during the menstrual cycle in premenopausal women. The thermogenic activity and mass of brown adipose tissue (BAT) are regulated by endocrine factors, including sex hormones and fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21). However, the relationship between human BAT and these endocrine fluctuations within individuals remains to be elucidated.
