Abstract

The purpose of the present study was to determine the effect of the menstrual cycle on dressing behavior in cold exposure. Rectal and skin temperatures, temperature sensation and metabolic rate were measured in seven women during the luteal (L) and the follicular (F) phases of the menstrual cycle, as was their dressing behavior in these two phases. The subjects were instructed to dress so as to feel comfortable when the ambient temperature was decreased from 30 degrees C to 15 degrees C (07:00-09:00). Most subjects dressed more quickly and with thicker clothing in the L phase. They felt cooler in the L phase during the last 30 min of the temperature fall. Rectal and skin temperatures showed significant differences between L and F phases and metabolic rate was significantly higher in the L phase. The results can be interpreted in terms of the establishment of a higher set-point in core temperature during the L phase.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Women reported that they felt cooler in the last 30 min of exposure to the decreasing air temperature in the luteal phase.

    “They also reported that they felt cooler in the last 30 min of exposure to the decreasing air temperature in the luteal phase.”

  • Women exposed to decreasing air temperature (from 30°C to 15°C) dressed quicker and put on thicker clothes when in the luteal phase than when in the follicular phase.

    “Women exposed to decreasing air temperature (from 30°C to 15°C) dressed quicker and put on thicker clothes when in the luteal phase than when in the follicular phase [120].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
