Relationship between thermoregulatory parameters and DEXA-estimated regional fat

Relación entre la Temperatura de Superficie, la Composición Corporal e Indicadores Antropométricos de Obesidad y Sobrepeso

“…Esto es distinto a lo que ocurre con sujetos con niveles de IMC > 24,9 kg/m 2 , en donde la disipación del calor metabólico corporal en presencia de sobrepeso u obesidad es menor que en sujetos con un IMC normal. Estas respuestas parecen ser el producto de una mayor acumulación de tejido adiposo subcutáneo, que coincide con lo que ha sido referido por algunos autores (Jéquier et al, 1974;Livingstone et al, 1987;Sessler et al, 1991;Aita & Yoshizumi, 1994;Glickman-Weiss et al, 1996;Claessensvan Ooijen, 2006;Salamunes et al, 2017). Por último, parece relevante considerar que los sujetos con sobrepeso y obesidad parecen disipar el calor hacia la piel de forma más lenta que sujetos con IMC normales (Kurz et al, 1995).…”

Body size and body composition effects on heat loss from the hands during severe cold exposure

“…Fat mass has traditionally been considered the body's predominant insulative tissue under cold stress, as populations exposed to cold stress are found to have a higher percentage fat mass, relative to populations from tropical or temperate climates (Craig, Halavatau, Comino, & Caterson, ; Houghton, ; Jones and White, ; Piers, Rowley, Soares, & O'dea, ; Shephard, Hatcher, & Rode, ). Subcutaneous fat mass has also been considered the dominant insulating tissue in whole‐body immersion investigations (Glickman‐Weiss, Hearon, Nelson, & Kime, ; Sloan and Keatinge, ; Toner and McArdle, ). Alongside adipose tissue, skeletal muscle mass is also likely to play a role in thermoregulation.…”

Effect of endurance, speed and strength training on skin temperature measured by infrared thermography = Efecto del entrenamiento de resistencia, velocidad y fuerza en la temperatura de la piel a través de la termografía infrarroja

“…However, the most outstanding relation of weight could be with subcutaneous fat. The thermal isolating proprieties of adipose tissue have been considered one of the most important influences on individual thermal pattern (Glickman-Weiss et al, 1996). Leblanc (1954) described that variations in Tsk between different persons could be due to differences in fat thickness.…”
