A study by researchers at the University of Maryland addressed the question of whether the mean body temperature of humans is The results of the study by P. Mackowiak et al. appeared in the article "A Critical Appraisal of the Upper Limit of the Normal Body Temperature, and Other Legacies of Carl Reinhold August Wunderlich" (Journal of the American Medical Association ). Among other data, the researchers obtained the body temperatures of healthy humans. The temperatures had a mean of and a standard deviation of
