Core Tip	Therapeutic hypothermia is currently limited by several factors, including the patient compensatory response. Recently, the possibility to induce synthetic torpor in non-hibernators has opened new scenarios, but a deep understanding of torpor and hibernation physiology is required. One particular aspect to consider is the gut microbiota (GM). In hibernators, the GM undergoes seasonal shifts, as a physiological response to the body temperature drop, and is considered playing a central role in regulating physiology, specifically influencing the immune system. Since the GM changes induced by synthetic torpor have never been described in non-hibernators, possible risks and reasonable interventions are suggested.
