PEDIATRIC SPORTS NUTRITION: AN UPDATE.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: There is a growing interest in the field of pediatric sports nutrition because of the will to lead the child athlete to high achievements, with minimal impairment of growth and development. In this article, we review some of the new data concerning the possible short-term and long-term effects of nutrition on children's [...]
POSTEXERCISE REHYDRATION IN MAN: THE EFFECTS OF OSMOLALITY AND CARBOHYDRATE CONTENT OF INGESTED DRINKS.
OBJECTIVE: This study investigated the effect of the osmolality and carbohydrate content of drinks on their rehydration effectiveness after exercise-induced dehydration. METHODS: Six healthy male volunteers were dehydrated by 1.9+/-0.1% of body mass by intermittent cycle ergometer exercise in the heat before ingesting one of three solutions with different carbohydrate contents and osmolalities over a [...]

THE EFFECT OF HYPOHYDRATION SEVERITY ON THE PHYSIOLOGICAL, PSYCHOLOGICAL AND RENAL HORMONAL RESPONSES TO HYPOXIC EXERCISE.
Evidence of the effect of dehydration on physiological responses to hypoxia is limited. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of hypohydration severity on physiological, renal hormonal and psychological responses to acute hypoxia. Eight males completed intermittent walking tests under normobaric hypoxic conditions (FI O(2) = 0.13) after completing four separate hypohydration [...]
CARDIOVASCULAR DRIFT DURING PROLONGED EXERCISE AND THE EFFECTS OF DEHYDRATION
Reductions in SV are the most striking component of "classic" CV drift as well as "dehydration induced" CV drift. Direct data for the widespread notion that increased skin blood flow causes SV to be reduced during "classic" CV drift is rather scarce. Reductions in SV due to dehydration and concomitant hyperthermia are clearly not due [...]
THE ACUTE BACTERIAL PAROTITIS OF THE ELDERLY
Acute bacterial parotitis (ABP) in elderly is clinically described with a sudden onset of painfull swelling over the cheek and angle of the mandible. The occur of ABP is a factor of very bad prognosis, often an indicator of approaching death. In this paper we discuss eight cases observed in our geriatric clinic. To reduce [...]
COMBINED MODALITY THERAPY IN THE ELDERLY POPULATION
The incidence of cancer among older patients continues to rise. The use of combined modality therapy has improved survival in a variety of malignancies, including rectal, head and neck, and lung cancer; however, the addition of chemotherapy increases substantially the toxicities of treatment. Elderly patients have generally been excluded from prospective clinical trials and as [...]
ARTIFICIAL HYDRATION THERAPY FOR TERMINALLY ILL CANCER PATIENTS: A NURSE-EDUCATION INTERVENTION.
The Japanese Society of Palliative Medicine has developed a clinical guideline to minimize the large variation in clinical practice of artificial hydration therapy for terminally ill cancer patients. The primary aim of this preliminary study was to explore the effects of a five-hour interactive workshop based on the guideline of nurses' knowledge, confidence, self-reported practice, [...]
BIOELECTRICAL IMPEDANCE PHASE ANGLE CHANGES DURING HYDRATION AND PROGNOSIS IN ADVANCED CANCER.
INTRODUCTION: We wished to determine bioelectrical impedance (BIA) correlates before hydration or changes during hydration and determine if these changes were prognostically important. METHODS AND MATERIALS: Fifty eligible patients underwent BIA measurements 3 consecutive days. Laboratory studies (electrolytes, creatinine, and hemoglobin) on day 1; weights and vital signs were recorded. Kaplan-Meier survival estimates were made [...]
