A young patient developed hypothalamic diabetes insipidus due to histiocytosis in infancy and was satisfactorily treated with Pitressin. As a teenager she no longer had thirst or polyuria after treatment was stopped. These symptoms only [...]
ESTIMATING BODY COMPOSITION IN LATE GESTATION: A NEW HYDRATION CONSTANT FOR BODY DENSITY AND TOTAL BODY WATER.
Twenty women underwent body density (DB) measurements using underwater weighing with correction of residual lung volume by nitrogen dilution and total body water (TBW) using isotope dilution of 18O to estimate body composition at 30 [...]
INFLUENCE OF HYDRATION LEVEL AND BODY FLUIDS ON EXERCISE PERFORMANCE IN THE HEAT
During exercise in the heat, sweat output often exceeds water intake, resulting in hypohydration, which is defined as a body fluid deficit. This fluid deficit is comprised of water loss from both the intracellular and [...]
