MATERNAL HYDRATION INCREASES AMNIOTIC FLUID INDEX IN WOMEN WITH NORMAL AMNIOTIC FLUID.
OBJECTIVE: To test the hypothesis that maternal oral hydration would increase the amniotic fluid (AF) index in pregnancies with normal AF. METHODS: Forty women with a normal AF index (7.0-24.0 cm) were randomized to either [...]
The effect of caffeinated, non-caffeinated, caloric and non-caloric beverages on hydration.
OBJECTIVE: To examine the effect of various combinations of beverages on hydration status in healthy free-living adult males. METHODS: In a counterbalanced, crossover manner, 18 healthy adult males ages 24 to 39, on four separate [...]
Effect of hydration status on high-intensity rowing performance and immune function.
PURPOSE: This study determined the effect of dehydration and rehydration (DR) on performance, immune cell response, and tympanic temperature after high-intensity rowing exercise. METHODS: Seven oarswomen completed two simulated 2000-m rowing race trials separated by [...]
MATERNAL HYDRATION INCREASES AMNIOTIC FLUID INDEX.
Although adequate amniotic fluid (AF) volume is considered an important aspect of fetal well-being, the etiology of decreased AF volume is not well understood. A randomized blinded trial was designed to examine our hypothesis that [...]
