VALIDITY OF URINE-BLOOD HYDRATIONAL MEASURES TO ASSESS TOTAL BODY WATER CHANGES DURING MOUNTAINEERING IN THE SUB-ARCTIC.
Mountaineering involves high altitude and cold exposure which are each associated with significant levels of dehydration (via altitude-cold diuresis, high energy expenditures, and poor access to water). The purpose of this study was to identify and validate urine and blood indices of dehydration as compared to changes in total body water (which served as the [...]
IMPACT OF HYDRATION STATUS ON BODY COMPOSITION AS MEASURED BY DUAL ENERGY X-RAY ABSORPTIOMETRY IN NORMAL VOLUNTEERS AND PATIENTS ON HAEMODIALYSIS.
To evaluate the influence of hydration status on the estimation of body composition using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), six normal volunteers and seven patients on maintenance haemodialysis were investigated using two different DXA machines (Lunar DPX, Hologic QDR 1000/W). Normal volunteers were studied (Hologic QDR 1000/W) before and 1 h after ingestion of breakfast, lunch [...]

PREVENTING DEHYDRATION IN CHILDREN WITH CYSTIC FIBROSIS WHO EXERCISE IN THE HEAT.
PURPOSE: In healthy children who exercise in the heat, the addition of flavor, carbohydrate, and 18 mmol x L(-1) NaCl to water induced a major increase in voluntary drink intake compared with the intake of unflavored water. This increase was sufficient to prevent voluntary dehydration. We hypothesized that, to achieve a similar effect in children [...]
IMPROVED THERMOREGULATION CAUSED BY FORCED WATER INTAKE IN HUMAN DESERT DWELLERS.
Residents of the Negev desert in Israel sustain a mild state of dehydration. Low, concentrated urine outputs, high incidence of kidney diseases and high hematocrit ratios characterize this population. Educational programs to increase the awareness of the population to the dangers of dehydration have undoubtedly failed. It was our purpose to see whether forced increased [...]
