EFFECTS OF THERMAL STRESS DURING REST AND EXERCISE IN THE PAEDIATRIC POPULATION
Thermoregulation during exposure to hot or cold environments differs between children and adults. Many physical and physiological changes occur during growth and maturation that can affect thermoregulation during rest as well as during exercise. Thus, physical as well as physiological differences between children and adults may explain the different response to thermal stress. The main [...]

HYPODIPSIA IN GERIATRIC PATIENTS
Hypernatremia in elderly patients is most often due to the patients mental incapacity or physical inability to obtain water despite intact thirst sensation. Hypodipsia leading to hypernatremia is not often considered in alert, elderly subjects since hypodipsia is not a recognized consequence of nonaphasia-producing cerebrovascular accidents. Described herein are six elderly patients who had such [...]
WATER TURNOVER OF HEALTHY CHILDREN MEASURED BY DEUTERATED WATER ELIMINATION
For healthy children up to 15 years of age, no data exist regarding water turnover as directly measured using stable isotope techniques. Water turnover was measured in 171 healthy children (88 girls, 83 boys, age: 6 weeks-15 years) whilst living in their normal environment. Water turnover was calculated from the equilibrium of 2H2O concentration reached [...]
RESTORATION OF FLUID BALANCE AFTER EXERCISE-INDUCED DEHYDRATION: EFFECTS OF ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION
The effect of alcohol consumption on the restoration of fluid and electrolyte balance after exercise-induced dehydration [2.01 +/- 0.10% (SD) of body mass] was investigated. Drinks containing 0, 1, 2, and 4% alcohol were consumed over 60 min beginning 30 min after the end of exercise; a different beverage was consumed in each of four [...]
HYPOHYDRATION DURING EXERCISE IN CHILDREN: EFFECT ON THIRST, DRINKING PREFERENCES, AND REHYDRATION
This study examined changes in children's thirst and drink preferences during exercise-induced hypohydration and their spontaneous rehydration during a 30-min recovery. Twenty-four 9- to 13-year-old children (14 females, 10 males) participated in four intermittent 90-min cycling sessions in the heat (35 degrees C, 20% relative humidity); the sessions differed in the drinks the children were [...]
