Saliva parameters as potential indices of hydration status during acute dehydration.
PURPOSE: Firstly, to identify whether saliva flow rate, osmolality, and total protein are potential markers of hydration, we compared changes in these parameters with changes in plasma osmolality during progressive dehydration. Secondly, we compared the sensitivity of saliva parameters to track hydration changes with the sensitivity of urine osmolality. Thirdly, to test the hypothesis that [...]

Hydration, thermoregulation, and performance effects of two sport drinks during soccer training sessions.
In the present study, we aimed to compare the thermoregulatory response and soccer-specific training performance aspects of two commercially available sport drinks, both of similar carbohydrate concentration, but one containing 5.2% glycerol. Ten players participated in two similar outdoor training sessions and were randomly assigned to each of two drinks: a carbohydrate (C) beverage or [...]
Development of a clinical dehydration scale for use in children between 1 and 36 months of age
OBJECTIVE: To develop a clinical dehydration scale for use in children
Sports drinks, exercise training, and competition
A plethora of investigations examining fluid intake before, during, and after training and competition have suggested that a lack of adequate fluid intake will impair or decrease physical performance. Depending upon the type of training or competition, individuals training for prolonged endurance events should drink fluids containing carbohydrates and electrolytes during and after training or [...]
Chronic dehydration and symptomatic upper urinary tract stones in young adults in Ibadan, Nigeria.
INTRODUCTION: Upper urinary tract stones are relatively uncommon in Nigeria and they are most often seen in men in their 4th and 5th decades. There is however no recent report on this disease from our locality. This retrospective study was done to evaluate the pattern of presentation of upper tract urolithiasis in our institution. PATIENTS [...]
Rehydration after exercise in the heat: a comparison of 4 commonly used drinks.
To determine the effectiveness of 3 commonly used beverages in restoring fluid and electrolyte balance, 8 volunteers dehydrated by 1.94% +/- 0.17% of body mass by intermittent exercise in the heat, then ingested a carbohydrate-electrolyte solution (Gatorade), carbonated water/apple-juice mixture (Apfelschorle), and San Benedetto mineral water in a volume equal to 150% body-mass loss. These [...]
Neonatal neurologic damage after dehydration.
Neurologic damage secondary to dehydration occurs in one of two ways; there can be circulatory shock with hypoxic damage, or a hypernatremic state with cerebral hemorrhage and sometimes thrombosis. The shock variety is most often seen after massive water and electrolyte losses from diarrheal disease; the hypernatremic variety has also been mostly seen in diarrheal [...]
