title: [Thermophysiology of the paradoxical sleep].
abstract: Data on interactions between the paradoxical sleep (PS) and thermoregulation under thermo-comfortable and extreme conditions (in high and low temperatures, forced and spontaneous fasting, acclimation to cold and acclimation to natural winter conditions) are reviewed. The hypothesis of the PS role in synchronising and endogenous "kindling" of the visceral function ultradian rhythms is substantiated. Some new data are presented on entering torpor as a phenomenon of the "dramatic" neuronal plasticity.
