PSYCHOMOTOR DETERIORATION DURING EXPOSURE TO HEAT
The effect of different heat loads on vigilance and complex cognitive tasks involved in a mission of different intensities were examined. Nine healthy volunteers were randomly exposed for 2 h to three climatic conditions: comfort [...]
PEAK RATES OF DIERESIS IN HEALTHY HUMANS DURING ORAL FLUID OVERLOAD.
OBJECTIVE: To determine whether rates of intestinal fluid absorption and renal diuresis can match high rates of fluid ingestion in healthy humans exposed to oral fluid overload, thereby preventing the development of hyponatraemia either by [...]
FLUID AND ELECTROLYTE BALANCE: EFFECTS ON THERMOREGULATION AND EXERCISE IN THE HEAT
During exercise, sweat output often exceeds water intake, producing a water deficit or hypohydration. The water deficit lowers both intracellular and extracellular fluid volumes, and causes a hypotonic-hypovolemia of the blood. Aerobic exercise tasks are [...]
