Sweating rate (SR) of boys is lower than that of men. To assess the association between the response of individual sweat glands and physical growth and maturation, three groups of circumpubertal boys cycled at 50% VO2max in a climatic chamber (42 degrees C, 20% relative humidity). Based on Tanner staging (pubic hair), 16 were classified [...]

During exercise in a hot climate, children have been reported to have a less effective temperature regulation capability, compared with adults. It is likely that the transition from a child-like to an adult-like response occurs during puberty. To assess the association between the thermoregulatory response and physical maturation, three groups of circum-pubertal boys cycled at [...]

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 controls and 199 patients from the first idiopathic calcium stone episode. After a baseline study period the stone formers were [...]
