Heart rate and body temperature are physiologically linked as core indicators of metabolic state and autonomic regulation, as evidenced by their simultaneous monitoring in sleep cycles [1], [2], [3], circadian rhythms [4], and hibernation states [5], [6]. They are also both regulated by thyroid hormones [7] and are key components of interoceptive perception [8] and consumer health tracking [9].
