Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate, or extent of fever. Any homeostatic process by which an organism produces heat, thereby raising its internal temperature. Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the rate or extent of fever. Inflammation which comprises a rapid, short-lived, relatively uniform response to acute injury or antigenic challenge and is characterized by accumulations of fluid, plasma proteins, and granulocytic leukocytes. An acute inflammatory response occurs within a matter of minutes or hours, and either resolves within a few days or becomes a chronic inflammatory response. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate, or extent of a homeostatic process. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of a multicellular organismal process, the processes pertinent to the function of a multicellular organism above the cellular level; includes the integrated processes of tissues and organs. Any process that modulates the rate or extent of fever. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the inflammatory response, the immediate defensive reaction (by vertebrate tissue) to infection or injury caused by chemical or physical agents. A rise in body temperature above the normal, often as a response to infection. Any process that modulates the rate or extent of heat generation. Process involving non-antibody proteins whose concentrations in the plasma increase in response to infection or injury of homeothermic animals. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate, or extent of an acute inflammatory response.
