ABSTRACT
Forearm and fingertip temperature gradients were related to simultaneously measured forearm blood flow in eleven adult subjects at rest and during a mild cold stimulus. The change in temperature gradients were converted into a percentage change of the potential capacity for heat exchange and this was found to correlate well (r = 0.73 P < 0.001) with the absolute reduction in forearm blood flow.
