Thermoregulation in spinal man

Plasma catecholamines and hyperglycaemia influence thermoregulation in man during prolonged exercise in the heat.

1. We manipulated plasma catecholamines (combined adrenaline and noradrenaline concentrations) to three levels during prolonged exercise to determine their effect on cutaneous and forearm vascular conductance (CVC and FVC), oesophageal temperature (T(oes)) and cardiovascular responses. 2. On three occasions, seven endurance-trained men cycled at 65% VO2, max in the heat (33.1 +/- 0.7 degrees C)...

Behavioural thermoregulation in man-made habitats: surface choice and mortality risk in Red-necked Nightjars

Capsule Red-necked Nightjars’ (Caprimulgus ruficollis) choice of road surface type is significantly affected by air temperature, which may lead to increased traffic-induced mortality under cool weather conditions. Aims To assess how seasonality and weather conditions affect road surface use by Red-necked Nightjars and, if so, to identify possible patterns in human-induced mortality as a result ...

the tragedy of modern man in arthur millers world

what miller wants is a theatre of heightened consciousness. he speaks of two passions in a man, the passion to "feel" and the passion "know". he belives that we can have more of the latter. he says: drama is akin to the other inventions of man in that it ought to help us know more and not merely to spend our feelings. the writing of the crucible shows us that he is trying to give more heightene...
