  • (20) AVP is producing antipyresis by affecting the febrile body temperature set-point mechanism since the thermoregulatory strategy to lose heat varies at different ambient temperatures and the decrease in body temperature cannot be shown to be due to changes in a single effector mechanism.

Fever


Definition:

  • (n.) A diseased state of the system, marked by increased heat, acceleration of the pulse, and a general derangement of the functions, including usually, thirst and loss of appetite.
