Abstract The long-term exposure to extreme conditions of high or low temperature would make body uncomfortable, which greatly affects the brain cognitive function and may impair the alertness, attention, working memory and other functions. Skin temperature stimulation, as a simple physical method of body temperature regulation, can stabilize and improve the cognitive function of the brain to a certain extent. This paper reviewed the current research status and existing challenges. It was showed that there has not been clear understanding of the mechanism of regulating body temperature to protect brain nerves and improve cognitive function. It is still necessary to explore the optimal target stimulus temperature and time to achieve the goal of rapid and effective improvement of brain cognitive ability. Looking forward to future research strategies, we proposed that it should closely combine the mechanism of hypothermic stimulation on brain nerve protection and the intrinsic mechanism of brain cognitive function to study and formulate temperature control strategies, so as to figure out the best scheme of fast and effective regulation, as well as safe and stable protection of brain cognitive function.
