COMPARISON OF GROUND-BASED AND SPACE FLIGHT ENERGY EXPENDITURE AND WATER TURNOVER IN MIDDLE-AGED HEALTHY MALE US ASTRONAUTS.
Energy requirements during space flight are poorly defined because they depend on metabolic-balance studies, food disappearance, and dietary records. Water turnover has been estimated by balance methods only. The purpose of this study was to [...]
VOLUNTARY DEHYDRATION AND ELECTROLYTE LOSSES DURING PROLONGED EXERCISE IN THE HEAT.
The effects of water temperature (6 degrees, 22 degrees, 46 degrees C) and chlorination on voluntary dehydration (D), sweat electrolyte losses (SEL), and total body electrolyte losses (BEL) were studied in 12 healthy males during [...]
VALIDATION AND ADJUSTMENT OF THE MATHEMATICAL PREDICTION MODEL FOR HUMAN SWEAT RATE RESPONSES TO OUTDOOR ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS.
Under outdoor conditions this model was over estimating sweat loss response in shaded (low solar radiation) environments, and underestimating the response when solar radiation was high (open field areas). The present study was conducted in [...]
