A passive microwave thermography apparatus uses passive microwave antennas designed for operation, for example, at WARC protected frequencies of 1.400 to 1.427 GHz and 2.690 to 2.70 GHz (for core body gradient temperature measurement) and 10.68 to 10.700 GHz or higher microwave frequency (for surface body gradient temperature measurement) and a related directional antenna or antenna array to measure microwave radiation emanating from an animal, especially, a human body. The antennae may be radially directed toward a point within or on the surface of a human body for comparison with known temperature distribution data for that point and a given ambient temperature. Each frequency band may provide a plurality of adjacent noise measuring channels for measuring microwave noise naturally emitted by the human body. The apparatus measures short-term changes in, for example, core and body surface temperatures to establish a basal metabolic rate. Changes in core body temperature may be stimulated by the administration of food or certain organic and drug-related substances or stress to induce a change in basal metabolic rate over time. These changes correlate directly with a human subject's metabolism rate at rest and under certain dietary constraints and can be used to determine courses of treatment for obesity, metabolic disease, and other disorders. The apparatus can also be used to remotely monitor patients and subjects without physical contact.

A nutritional composition is provided which has an effective prophylactic and / or improving effect for various symptoms of muscle mass decrease, decreased basal metabolism, low body temperature, suppression of obesity, suppression of visceral fat accumulation, hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia and the like in elderly people. The nutritional composition can include n-3 fatty acid and one or more of free lysine, dipeptides containing lysine, and lysine salts, wherein the content of free lysine, dipeptides containing lysine, and / or lysine salts is 0.1 g-10.0 g per 100 kcal of the composition, and the content of the total amount of n-3 fatty acid is 0.17 g-5.00 g per 100 kcal of the composition.

A device selected from microelectrode, temperature sensor, optical sensor, optical fibre, temperature control element, and microdialysis probe for insertion into soft tissue comprises a body with a distal terminal section and a layer of an agent such as gelatin capable of forming a gel with aqueous body fluid on the terminal section. The terminal section and the gel -forming layer have a temperature of more than 30 degrees centigrade below body temperature during a period of time prior and up to insertion. Also disclosed is method of insertion, an insertion assembly and a use of the device.

A door access control method includes detecting whether a person is intending to pass through a door access control device. Then, it is identified whether a body temperature of the person near the door access control device exceeds a threshold value. The door access control device carries out an unlocking judgment procedure when the body temperature is below the threshold value. The unlocking judgment procedure is not carried out when the body temperature is not below the threshold value. Next, it is identified whether the person is qualified to pass through the door access control device based on the unlocking judgment. The door access control device remains in a locking state when the person is identified as not qualified to pass through the door access control device. The unlocking state is lifted when the person is identified as qualified to pass through the door access control device.

The invention discloses a mild hypothermia therapy-endovascular heat exchange temperature adjustment control device. The device comprises three parts of an endovascular catheter system, an in vitro salt water circulating system and a heat exchange controller, wherein the endovascular catheter system is connected with the in vitro salt water circulating system through a pipeline to form a closed-loop salt water flow channel; a circulating water pump controls sterile salt water to flow in the closed-loop salt water flow channel, while a heat exchange coil is soaked in refrigerant, and the temperature of the refrigerant can be changed by heating refrigeration equipment, so that the temperature of the sterile salt water is adjusted; and the heat exchange controller consists of the heating refrigeration equipment, a temperature control system and a display operation unit which are connected through a circuit. The heat exchange controller can change the temperature of the salt water in the in vitro salt water circulating system, thus temperature controlled salt water is obtained in the endovascular catheter system; and therefore, the heat is exchanged with blood of a patient through the balloon surface of the catheter system, thus the purpose of core body temperature regulation for central nervous system high-risk patients or low body temperature patients is achieved.

An aqueous solution that is useful for helping to increase body temperature in people with chronic low body temperature, as well as people who suffer from cold hands and feet, includes a combination of ginseng, cinnamon, ginger, and jasmine tea. The body temperature raising solution may be in the form of a beverage and include a sweetener, such as honey, to improve the taste thereof. The body temperature raising solution is formulated by steeping leaves of the jasmine tea in a host liquid, suspending predetermined amounts of the ginseng, cinnamon, ginger, and honey into the host liquid, and storing the combination in an airtight container.
