Newborn babies, infants, and young children experience a greater (net) heat loss than adults because of greater surface-area-to-volume ratio. As they cannot shiver to maintain body heat, [ citation needed ] they rely on non-shivering thermogenesis .
Hypothermia can set in when the core temperature drops to 35 °C (95 °F). [2] Hyperthermia can set in when the core body temperature rises above 37.5–38.3 °C (99.5–100.9 °F). [ 3 ] [ 4 ] Humans have adapted to living in climates where hypothermia and hyperthermia were common primarily through culture and technology, such as the use of ...

Thermogenesis is the process of heat production in organisms. It occurs in all warm-blooded animals, and also in a few species of thermogenic plants such as the Eastern skunk cabbage , the Voodoo lily ( Sauromatum venosum ), and the giant water lilies of the genus Victoria .
The way in which neonatal hypoglycemia symptoms may be presented is vague or hard to tell apart from other conditions. The symptoms can be confused with: hypocalcemia [1] Sepsis [1] CNS disorders [1] Cardiorespiratory problems [1] Neonatal hypoglycemia can also show no symptoms in some newborns or may be life-threatening.

The average difference between oral and axillary temperatures of Indian children aged 6–12 was found to be only 0.1 °C (standard deviation 0.2 °C), [51] and the mean difference in Maltese children aged 4–14 between oral and axillary temperature was 0.56 °C, while the mean difference between rectal and axillary temperature for children ...
