Hypothyroid, normal and 'thyrotoxic' rats were overheated under standardized conditions, and their rectal temperatures and oxygen consumption were measured. During 30–60 min. of heating, body temperature and oxygen consumption rose more slowly in the hypothyroid animals and more rapidly in the 'thyrotoxic' ones as compared with normal rats. It was also found that, for the same induced increase in body temperature, the oxygen consumption of the hypothyroid rats rose less and that of the 'thyrotoxic' rats more than that of the normal animals.
Journal of Endocrinology is committed to supporting researchers in demonstrating the impact of their articles published in the journal.
The two types of article metrics we measure are (i) more traditional full-text views and pdf downloads, and (ii) Altmetric data, which shows the wider impact of articles in a range of non-traditional sources, such as social media.
