DILUTION AND REDISTRIBUTION EFFECTS OF RAPID 2-LITRE INFUSIONS OF 0.9% (W/V) SALINE AND 5% (W/V) DEXTROSE ON HAEMATOLOGICAL PARAMETERS AND SERUM BIOCHEMISTRY IN NORMAL SUBJECTS: A DOUBLE-BLIND CROSSOVER STUDY
Although hypoalbuminaemia after injury may result from increased vascular permeability, dilution secondary to crystalloid infusions may contribute significantly. In this double-blind crossover study, the effects of bolus infusions of crystalloids on serum albumin, haematocrit, serum [...]
VOLUNTARY DEHYDRATION IN RUNNERS DESPITE FAVORABLE CONDITIONS FOR FLUID INTAKE
This study investigated the relationship between runners' perceptions of fluid needs and drinking behavior under conditions of compensable heat stress (ambient temperature = 20.5 +/- 0.7 degrees C, 68.9 degrees F; relative humidity = 76.6%). [...]

EFFECT OF EQUILIBRATED HYDRATION CHANGES ON TOTAL BODY WATER ESTIMATES BY BIOELECTRICAL IMPEDANCE ANALYSIS
The present study was performed to determine how equilibrated fluctuations in hydration affected the validity of bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) for body composition assessment. Total body water (TBW) expansion was induced by a 4 d [...]
