L'hyperthermie doit être distinguée de la fièvre. Si ces deux phénomènes sont caractérisés par une élévation de la température de l'organisme, ils n'ont pas la même origine. L'hyperthermie est due à une accumulation de chaleur et constitue un phénomène anormal. La fièvre est quant à elle due à un déplacement du point d'équilibre thermique et constitue un mécanisme de défense de l'organisme. 3, record 1, French, - hyperthermie

El éxtasis aumenta la disponibilidad de un neurotransmisor cerebral llamado serotonina, produciendo euforia y desinhibición. También actúa sobre el hipotálamo, que es donde se regula la temperatura del cuerpo. Entonces, una persona que ha consumido éxtasis puede bailar por mucho tiempo sin cansarse, pero el calor provocado por la intensa actividad física puede producirle una violenta deshidratación e hipertermia. 3, record 1, Spanish, - hipertermia

La génétique du stress chez le porc a été dominée par l'étude du syndrome de stress aigu ou hyperthermie maligne. Chez les animaux sensibles, tout état de stress peut provoquer un syndrome d'hyperthermie maligne qui se caractérise par d'intenses contractures musculaires donnant une rigidité généralisée de la musculature, une élévation rapide de la température, une acidose métabolique des tissus, une cyanose, et peut aboutir à la mort. Le syndrome peut aussi être déclenché par l'inhalation d'halothane, anesthésique gazeux. 1, record 2, French, - syndrome%20de%20stress%20aigu
