THE RESPONSE OF ARGININE VASOPRESSIN TO INTRAVENOUS ETHANOL AND HYPERTONIC SALINE IN MAN: THE IMPACT OF AGING
The effect of age on the hypothalamic-hypophyseal-renal axis in normal man was determined by assaying plasma arginine vasopressin (AVP) responses to inhibitory and to secretory stimuli. Nine young (21-49 years) and 13 old (54-92 years) [...]
EFFECTS OF EXERCISE ON FLUID EXCHANGE AND BODY COMPOSITION IN MAN DURING 14-DAY BED REST
To determine the cause of the body weight loss during bed rest (BR), fluid balance and anthropometric measurements were taken from seven men (19-21 yr) during three 2-wk BR periods which were separated by 3-wk [...]
METABOLIC INDICATORS OF HYDRATION STATUS IN THE PREDICTION OF PAROTID SALIVARY-GLAND FUNCTION
Salivary glands require body fluids for normal function. It has been suggested that decreased levels of hydration (dehydration) may cause diminished salivary output, but it is not known whether salivary flow rates are related to [...]
