Abstract
It has been found that the intraday dynamics of body temperature in small mammal and bird species on the adjacent day are similar. Therefore, by focusing on the body temperature dynamics of the previous day, it is possible to predict with a high degree of accuracy the periods of increase and decrease in body temperature for the current day. This phenomenon was observed when animals were kept under natural illumination and under artificial illumination when the phase of the intrinsic circadian rhythm shifted by 1-2 h every day. When analyzing this phenomenon in birds, it has been shown that the best match for body temperature dynamics occurs when comparing adjacent days based on sidereal days (a period of 23 h and 56 min). Over time, after several days, the daily patterns of body temperature fluctuation take on a completely different form and frequency. These facts suggest a connection between ultradian rhythms and the rotation of the Earth around its axis, and consequently, the position of animals on the surface of the planet relative to space objects.
期刊介绍:
Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine presents original peer reviewed research papers and brief reports on priority new research results in physiology, biochemistry, biophysics, pharmacology, immunology, microbiology, genetics, oncology, etc. Novel trends in science are covered in new sections of the journal - Biogerontology and Human Ecology - that first appeared in 2005.
World scientific interest in stem cells prompted inclusion into Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine a quarterly scientific journal Cell Technologies in Biology and Medicine (a new Russian Academy of Medical Sciences publication since 2005). It publishes only original papers from the leading research institutions on molecular biology of stem and progenitor cells, stem cell as the basis of gene therapy, molecular language of cell-to-cell communication, cytokines, chemokines, growth and other factors, pilot projects on clinical use of stem and progenitor cells.
The Russian Volume Year is published in English from April.
