Summary: The study found that Ridden Water Submersion Training (RWST) acts as a moderate submaximal intensity exercise that can prevent the common tendon temperature increase associated with traditional conditioning training, especially suitable for horses in high risk disciplines of tendon injury. Further research is needed to understand the physiological effects of RWST in non-elite performance horses and across various equestrian disciplines.

Summary: Infrared thermography was used to analyze the udder side temperature of lactating cows, with different methods showing high correlation and significant association with rectal temperature. The maximum temperature in a horizontal rectangle within the lateral portion of the udder was suggested as a reliable method to assess udder side temperature.

Summary: The objective of this study was to evaluate the temperatures on the sole of the foot after a 10-km run using two models of socks with different weave separations. Results showed that both models of socks led to an increase in temperature, but the one with narrower weave separation had higher temperature under the first metatarsal head.

Summary: Thermography is commonly used to assess training effects and injury risk after training, but results may vary depending on the time of measurement. This study aimed to determine the hourly variation in skin temperature immediately after strength training and examine bilateral differences in temperature. Fourteen physically active university students participated in a longitudinal study, performing a specific exercise protocol. Results showed a significant decrease in skin temperature immediately after exercise, followed by an increase to pre-exercise levels, and further increases in most cases.

Summary: The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system activation and skin temperature in the lower limbs after resistance training. The results showed that exercise and recovery had a significant effect on skin temperature in all regions of interest, and there was a strong inverse relationship between sympathetic and parasympathetic activation values.

Summary: This preliminary study aimed to assess skin temperature (Tsk) asymmetries before and after on-court training in elite young tennis players and to find the correlation between these asymmetries and demographic data, racquet characteristics, and pain and fatigue variation. The results showed that Tsk was higher on the dominant side in areas such as the anterior and posterior forearm. Post-training Tsk values were lower in all regions except in the posterior forearm, posterior shoulder, and posterior leg. Significant correlations were found between thermal asymmetry and weight of the racquet, body mass index, fatigue and pain variation. Monitoring tennis players' Tsk with infrared thermography (IRT) provides valuable information for coaches to evaluate contralateral asymmetries and technical pattern activations during training sessions.

Summary: Smartphone-based handheld thermal imagers can be used to assess healing progress and predict the healing status of surgical incisions. In this study, thermal images and temperature readings were obtained from 40 patients for 7 days postoperatively. The temperature readings showed non-linear trajectory changes, and readings on day 4 achieved high prediction capability for healing status at 1-2 months, with sensitivities and specificities of 91.67% and 85.71% respectively, suggesting a promising clinical application of portable thermography in assessing incision healing dynamics and guiding decision algorithms.

Summary: This paper presents a method for quantifying the global uncertainty on blackbody temperature measurement from infrared (IR) diagnostics. The main functional elements of the IR diagnostics are identified and the temperature calibration and calculation principles are analyzed to extract potential uncertainty contributors. These contributors are estimated individually or experimentally measured, and their effects on overall uncertainty are studied. The uncertainty is in the range of 5-10% for blackbody temperatures above 200 degrees C and worsens as temperature decreases.
