Temperature and exercise in children and young adults
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study looks at how the body's temperature changes during exercise in different room temperatures. It may help us understand how to keep kids and young adults safe and comfortable when they exercise in the heat.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study looks at how exercise intensity affects body temperature in healthy children and young adults. Participants will exercise and may need to swallow a small pill that measures body temperature from inside.
This study tests whether keeping a room at 26 °C (about 79 °F) helps healthy young adults stay cool without discomfort. It's for people who are not smokers, not highly trained athletes, and not pregnant.
This study looks at how hot indoor temperatures affect children's physical responses. It may help families understand how to keep kids safe during heat waves.
This study tests how your body handles working in heat when you are also at a simulated high altitude. The results could help understand physical limits and safety in jobs or sports.
This study checks if a 26°C indoor temperature is safe and comfortable for older adults with or without high blood pressure or type 2 diabetes. You'll wear different clothing and do daily activities while your body's response is monitored.
This study looks at how aging affects the body's ability to control temperature, especially for people taking beta-blockers (medicines for heart conditions). It may help researchers understand how to better manage heat-related risks in older adults.
