GLYCEROL HYPERHYDRATION: HORMONAL, RENAL, AND VASCULAR FLUID RESPONSES.
Glycerol ingestion has been shown to mediate hyperhydration; however, the mechanism(s) responsible for this improved fluid retention is not well understood. This study examined the hormonal, renal, and vascular fluid responses to glycerol hyperhydration in [...]
URINARY VOLUME, WATER AND RECURRENCES IN IDIOPATHIC CALCIUM NEPHROLITHIASIS: A 5-YEAR RANDOMIZED PROSPECTIVE STUDY.
PURPOSE: We define the role of urine volume as a stone risk factor in idiopathic calcium stone disease and test the actual preventive effectiveness of a high water intake. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We studied 101 [...]
URINARY INDICIES OF HYDRATION STATUS.
Athletes and researchers could benefit from a simple and universally accepted technique to determine whether humans are well-hydrated, euhydrated, or hypohydrated. Two laboratory studies (A, B) and one field study (C) were conducted to determine [...]
URINATION DURING THE FIRST THREE YEARS OF LIFE
Urination was studied in 15 normal infants and young children on 150 occasions in the course of metabolic balance studies. With increasing age, mean urine volume increased if expressed as ml/day and decreased if expressed [...]
