The overall tone reflects high interest, exemplified by statements like 'desmontando mitos' and references to historical standards, which show curiosity about how perceptions of normal temperature have evolved. The comments engage with the details of the study, discussing the significance of individualized temperature ranges and their clinical implications, indicating a thoughtful examination of the research's impact.

AgreementModerate agreement

Most comments acknowledge the study’s findings, such as the variation in normal body temperature based on factors like age and sex, showing general support for the research conclusions.

InterestHigh interest

Many discussions demonstrate high curiosity, with commenters highlighting interesting points like the historical context of the 37°C standard and the significance of personalized temperature ranges.

EngagementModerate engagement

Participants engage thoughtfully by referencing specific findings and implications, including clinical questions about variability and measurement differences.

ImpactModerate impact

The discussions indicate moderate influence, emphasizing the importance of redefining 'normal' in clinical practice and the broader understanding of body temperature norms.

Abstract in brief

  • The study aimed to define normal oral temperature ranges by considering factors such as age, sex, height, weight, and time of day due to the poorly defined standard of "normal" temperature.
  • Using data from over 600,000 outpatient encounters, a filtering algorithm was applied to remove cases influenced by specific diagnoses that might skew temperature readings.
  • The analysis ultimately led to establishing individualized normal temperature ranges, highlighting the significant impact of certain medical conditions on temperature measurements.

What is the real normal body temperature? It's 36.64° C, or about 98.0° F, not 98.6° F. Says researchers from Stanford: JAMA Intern Med. 2023;183(10):1128-1135. doi:10.1001/jamainternmed.2023.4291 https://t.co/e2eUqDfxdk https://t.co/nXAB1FGBz4
