Climate change has amplified the importance of continuous and precise body core temperature (T) monitoring in the everyday life. In this context, assessing T through ingestible capsules technology, i.e., gastrointestinal temperature (T), emerges as a good alternative to prevent heat-related illness. Therefore, we conducted a systematic review to point out values of normal T measured through ingestible capsules in healthy humans. The study followed PRISMA guidelines and searched the PubMed and Scielo databases from 1971 to 2023. Our search strategy included the descriptors ("gastrointestinal temperature") AND ("measurement"), and eligible studies had to be written in English and measured T using ingestible capsules or sensors in healthy adults aged 18-59 at rest. Two pairs of researchers independently reviewed titles and abstracts and identified 35 relevant articles out of 1,088 in the initial search. An average value of 37.13 °C with a standard deviation of 0.24 °C was observed, independently of the gender. The values measured ranged from 36.70 °C to 37.69 °C. In conclusion, this systematic review pointed out the mean value of 37.13 ± 0.24 °C measured by ingestible capsules as reference for resting T in healthy adult individuals.
气候变化使得持续、精确监测人体核心温度（T）在日常生活中变得尤为重要。在这种情况下，通过可摄入胶囊技术（即胃肠道温度（T））来评估 T，可以作为预防与热相关疾病的一种很好的替代方法。因此，我们进行了一项系统评价，旨在指出通过可摄入胶囊在健康人群中测量的正常 T 值。该研究遵循 PRISMA 指南，从 1971 年到 2023 年在 PubMed 和 SciELO 数据库中进行了搜索。我们的搜索策略包括描述符（“胃肠道温度”）和（“测量”），并且合格的研究必须用英语撰写，并使用可摄入胶囊或传感器在 18-59 岁的健康成年人休息时测量 T。两对研究人员独立审查了标题和摘要，并从最初的搜索中确定了 35 篇相关文章。观察到的平均温度为 37.13°C，标准差为 0.24°C，与性别无关。测量值范围在 36.70°C 到 37.69°C 之间。总之，这项系统评价指出，可摄入胶囊测量的 37.13°C±0.24°C 平均值可作为健康成年人休息时 T 的参考值。
