temperatuurianomaalia
Temperatuurianomaalia is a fictional medical term describing a disorder of thermoregulation with episodic abnormal core temperature and systemic symptoms. It is not recognized in current medical literature but is used here as a hypothetical example to illustrate temperature-related clinical concepts.
Clinical features include recurrent episodes of hyperthermia (39–41°C) or hypothermia (below 35°C) lasting minutes to hours,
Etiology is multifactorial, involving hypothalamic set-point dysregulation, autonomic imbalance, genetic variants in thermoregulatory pathways, autoimmune processes,
Pathophysiology involves abnormal hypothalamic control of heat production and dissipation, leading to instability of core temperature;
Diagnosis is provisional and relies on history and serial core temperature measurements during episodes, with exclusion
Management is not evidence-based. Acute care focuses on safety during episodes (cooling for hyperthermia, warming for
Prognosis and epidemiology: no real-world data exist for this fictional condition. Prognosis varies with episode frequency
History and name: the term combines Dutch roots temperatuur meaning temperature and anomaalia meaning anomaly, and
