Diet-induced thermogenesis

TL;DR: It is remarkable to observe that in adults of most species energy intake is equal to expenditure, and thus energy balance and body weight are maintained over long periods of time, and an extension of this concept would suggest that increases in food intake might elicit a rise in expenditure.

Advanced Materials for Health Monitoring with Skin‐Based Wearable Devices

TL;DR: This article gives a concise, although admittedly non-exhaustive, didactic review of some of the main concepts and approaches related to recent advances and developments in the scope of skin-based wearable devices, with an emphasis on emerging materials and fabrication techniques in the relevant fields.
Journal ArticleDOI

Length of human pregnancy and contributors to its natural variation

TL;DR: The Early Pregnancy Study was a prospective cohort study that followed 130 singleton pregnancies from unassisted conception to birth, with detailed hormonal measurements through the conception cycle, and examined hormonal and other factors in relation to length of gestation.

Body temperature variability (Part 1): a review of the history of body temperature and its variability due to site selection, biological rhythms, fitness, and aging.

TL;DR: The historical work of Wunderlich on temperature and the origins of the concept that a healthy normal temperature is 98.6 degrees F (37.0 degrees C) are outlined and his findings and methodology are reviewed and his results are contrasted with findings from modern clinical thermometry.

Use of Urine Biomarkers to Evaluate Menstrual Function in Healthy Premenopausal Women

TL;DR: Computer algorithms were developed to derive menstrual segment length, ovulatory status, day of ovulation, and other parameters from the urine and diary data, and important associations included the following: age of > or = 35 years with decreased segment and follicular phase lengths; heavier weight with anovulation and increased follicle phase and decreased luteal phase lengths.

A chemical method for the determination of oestriol, oestrone and oestradiol in human urine.

TL;DR: The aim of this work is to establish the phytochemical properties of the venomous substance used in the preparation of venom and to establish its application in the treatment of animals and humans.

Radioimmunoassay: A Method for Human Chorionic Gonadotropin and Human Luteinizing Hormone1

TL;DR: The assay is sufficiently sensitive to permit quantitation of normal amounts of luteinizing hormone in 0.1 ml of unconcentrated serum and urine of women near the time of presumed ovulation.

Relationship Between the Plasma Levels of Luteinizing Hormone and Progesterone During the Normal Menstrual Cycle

TL;DR: The temporal relationship between the concentrations of luteinizing hormone (LH) and progesterone in peripheral plasma has been determined during the course of the normal human menstrual cycle and increased rapidly after the midcycle surge of LH.
Journal ArticleDOI

A composite picture of the menstrual cycle.

TL;DR: Ten ovulating women were studied to assess the interrelationships of various systemic, hormonal, and reproductive tract changes during normal menstrual cycles, and properties of cervical mucus showed a remarkable relationship to the ovulatory estrogen peak.

Simultaneous Measurement of Plasma Progesterone, 17-Hydroxyprogesterone and Estradiol-17B by Radioimmunoassay

TL;DR: Combining a simple chromatographic system on celite microcolumns with partially specific antisera as binding reagents, simultaneous radioimmunoassay of progesterone, 17-hydroxyprogesterone, and estradiol-17B could be performed on the same aliquot of plasma.
