“…1) indicated a circadian rhythm in TD magnitudes that was consistent with data from prior studies (Aschoff and Pohl, 1970;Mills et al, 1978;Gillberg and Åkerstedt, 1982;Zulley and Wever, 1982;Wever, 1985;Dijk and Czeisler, 1995). Despite the clock-time variability of Tmin across subjects, the model documented a TD rhythm in this normal young adult sample.…”

“…It has been known for more than 150 years that temperature falls during nocturnal sleep (Kleitman, 1963) and, more recently, that this sleeprelated temperature dropping occurs at most times of the day. However, several studies have additionally provided evidence that this bedtime temperature dropping differs by circadian phase (Aschoff and Pohl, 1970;Mills et al, 1978;Gillberg and Åkerstedt, 1982;Zulley and Wever, 1982;Wever, 1985;Dijk and Czeisler, 1995;Klerman et al, 1999). Indications that masking effects differ by circadian phase have been presented in protocols using constant routines (Barrett et al, 1993).…”

Both recumbency and sleep affect core body temperature (CBT). To characterize their circadian effects and interactions, the authors examined the bedtime temperature drops (TDs) of nine men and eight women (aged 20 to 30) who repeated 90-min sleep-wake cycles over 2.5 days. While awake, subjects were exposed to 50 to 250 lux; while asleep, lights were off. Electroencephalogram-monitored time inbed lasted 30 min during each cycle. Cosinor nonlinear mixed-effects regressions modeled the circadian rhythm of TDs. The circadian maximum of TDs occurred approximately 4 h before the time of circadian CBT minimum, in a model that included the effects of baseline expected CBT, deviations from baseline CBT, time in study, and gender-dependent 24- and 12-h adjustments. Rates of temperature drops were faster during initial periods of lying awake than during periods of initially sleeping. Both rates followed separate circadian rhythms. The circadian maximum of TDs was located near customary nocturnal bedtimes, suggesting its role in fostering sleep during a normal bedtime routine. The apparent deceleration of temperature dropping at sleep onset supports the notion that the sleep onset period has complicated circadian neuroregulatory dynamics. These findings confirm the need for nonlinear models of temperature responses to postural changes and sleep that incorporate circadian variability in these masking effects.

“…5 in Aschoff et al 1967a). A similar dependence of temperature on the phase of the sleep-wake cycle has been observed in the 10 desynchronized subjects whose data are discussed here; details of the analysis are published elsewhere (Aschoff 1981b;Zulley and Wever 1982).…”

Abstract. The sleep-wake cycle and the circadian rhythm of rectal temperature were recorded in subjects who lived sing[y in an isolation unit. In 10 subjects, the freerunning rhythms remained internally synchronized, 10 other subjects showed internal desynchronization. Times of onset and end of bedrest ("sleep") were determined in each cycle and referred to the phase of the temperature rhythm. In the synchronized subjects, onset of sleep occurred, on the average, 1.34 h before the minimum of temperature, and end of sleep 6.94h thereafter, with narrow distributions. The desynchronized subjects had a broad bimodal distribution of sleep onsets (peaks 6.3 and 1.3 h before the minimum); the duration of sleep varied between more than 15 h when sleep began about 10 h before the temperature minimum, and less than 4 h when sleep began several hours after the minimum. The dependence of sleep duration on body temperature is interpreted as a continuing action of the coupling forces between the two rhythms after mutual synchronization is lost.

“…2. A phase-advance of the temperature oscillator may be "masked" by the sleep-wake cycle itself; sleep onset in itself has a significant effect on body temperature (34). It may be that the endogenous temperature oscillator is phaseadvanced relative to sleep onset in depression, but that the temperature drop associated with sleep onset makes the greater contribution to the cosinor analysis in the determination of the bathyphase.…”

REM latency and rectal and ear canal temperature were studied simultaneously in 11 controls and nine depressed patients; seven of the patients were studied when recovered. REM latency was shorter in the depressed group compared with controls and lengthened with recovery. The nocturnal and ear canal temperatures were higher in the depressed group compared with controls and decreased with recovery. REM latency and the nocturnal rectal temperature were negatively correlated when all the nights of the depressed patients were analyzed (r = -0.44) and when all the nights of the subjects were analyzed (r = -0.44). REM latency and nocturnal ear canal temperatures were negatively correlated when all the nights of the control group were analyzed (r = -0.34). The timing of the temperature rhythm did not appear to be correlated with the REM latency.
