OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of long-term (1-week) oral hydration on amniotic fluid volume in women with an amniotic fluid index (AFI) < 10th percentile. STUDY DESIGN: This prospective, nonrandomized, interventional study was conducted on 30 women with AFI < 10th percentile. Study inclusion criteria were singleton pregnancy, well-established gestational age, intact membranes, no maternal [...]
There is little information on the nutritional habits of female football players at any level of the game. There is also a shortage of information on the nutrition and hydration strategies that players should adopt. In general, differences in nutritional needs between males and females are smaller than differences between individuals, so that principles developed [...]
During exercise in the heat, sweat output often exceeds water intake which results in a body water deficit (hypohydration) and electrolyte losses. Daily water losses can be substantial and persons need to emphasize drinking during exercise as well as at mealtime. Aerobic exercise tasks are likely to be adversely affected by heat stress and hypohydration; [...]
The purpose of this review is to study general behaviour of human systems with respect to the environmental conditions. This type of work will be of profound significance to record the effect of medical treatment in various climatic zones of the world (Arayne and Saify, 1975). We attempted to discuss various facts which would be [...]
The purpose of this study was to examine the thermoregulatory sweating control parameters of threshold temperature and sensitivity to determine whether 1) these variables were altered by hypohydration level and exercise intensity and 2) these alterations, if present, were additive and independent. Nine heat-acclimated men completed a matrix of nine trials: three exercise intensities of [...]

During exercise in the heat, sweat output often exceeds water intake, resulting in hypohydration, which is defined as a body fluid deficit. This fluid deficit is comprised of water loss from both the intracellular and extracellular fluid compartments. Hypohydration during exercise causes a greater heat storage and reduces endurance in comparison with euhydration levels. The [...]
