Sex difference of urinary osmolality in German children.

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Origin of sex difference in urinary osmolality. METHODS: In 495 healthy children aged 4.0-14.9 years participating in the DONALD (Dortmund Nutritional and Anthropometric Longitudinally Designed) study (247 boys, 248 girls), the water intake recorded in 24-hour weighed dietary records along with urinary volume, osmolality and free water reserve in 24-hour urine samples from the same day as the dietary record were determined. RESULTS: Boys showed [...]

Effects of Ramadan upon fluid and food intake, fatigue, and physical, mental, andsocial activities: a comparison between the UK and Libya.

Two studies were performed during Ramadan, one in the UK (N=31) and the other in Libya (N=33). The aims were to assess some changes to lifestyle that are produced by fasting as well as effects due to culture. Subjects were studied on eight separate occasions: four control days (two before and two after Ramadan) and four days during the four weeks of Ramadan itself. [...]

Metabolic and thermodynamic responses to dehydration-induced reductions in muscle blood flow in exercising humans

1. The present study examined whether reductions in muscle blood flow with exercise-induced dehydration would reduce substrate delivery and metabolite and heat removal to and from active skeletal muscles during prolonged exercise in the heat. A second aim was to examine the effects of dehydration on fuel utilisation across the exercising leg and identify factors related to fatigue. 2. Seven cyclists performed two [...]

INFLUENCE OF HYDRATION ON PHYSIOLOGICAL FUNCTION AND PERFORMANCE DURING TRAIL RUNNING IN THE HEAT

CONTEXT: Authors of most field studies have not observed decrements in physiologic function and performance with increases in dehydration, although authors of well-controlled laboratory studies have consistently reported this relationship. Investigators in these field studies did not control exercise intensity, a known modulator of body core temperature. OBJECTIVE: To directly examine the effect of moderate [...]

EFFECT OF SALT AND WATER BALANCE ON RECOVERY OF GASTROINTESTINAL FUNCTION AFTER ELECTIVE COLONIC RESECTION: A RANDOMISED CONTROLLED TRIAL

BackgroundnnLow concentrations of albumin in serum and long gastric emptying times have been returned to normal in dogs by salt and water restriction, or a high protein intake. We aimed to determine the effect of salt and water balance on recovery of gastrointestinal function after elective colonic resection in human beings.nMethodsnnWe randomly allocated ten patients [...]

AMPK AGONISTS AMELIORATE SODIUM AND FLUID TRANSPORT AND INFLAMMATION IN CYSTIC FIBROSIS AIRWAY EPITHELIAL CELLS

The metabolic sensor AMP-activated kinase (AMPK) inhibits both the cystic fibrosis (CF) transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) Cl(-) channel and epithelial Na(+) channel (ENaC), and may inhibit secretion of proinflammatory cytokines in epithelia. Here we have tested in primary polarized CF and non-CF human bronchial epithelial (HBE) cells the effects of AMPK activators, metformin and 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1-beta-D-riboside [...]

American College of Sports Medicine position stand. Exercise and fluidreplacement.

This Position Stand provides guidance on fluid replacement to sustain appropriate hydration of individuals performing physical activity. The goal of prehydrating is to start the activity euhydrated and with normal plasma electrolyte levels. Prehydrating with beverages, in addition to normal meals and fluid intake, should be initiated when needed at least several hours before the [...]

A META-ANALYSIS OF OUTCOMES OF HYDRATION INTERVENTION ON PHONATION THRESHOLD PRESSURE

OBJECTIVES: Vocal fold hydration is purported to promote optimal biomechanical characteristics of vocal fold mucosa, increase efficiency of vocal fold oscillation, and enhance voice quality. The purpose of this work was to determine the magnitude and consistency of the effect of vocal fold hydration on vocal fold function across published clinical studies. METHODS: We completed [...]
