Ad Libitum Fluid Intake does not Prevent Dehydration in Sub-optimally Hydrated Young Soccer Players during a Training Session of a Summer Camp.

There is a lack of studies concerning hydration status of young athletes exercising in the heat. PURPOSE: To assess pre-exercise hydration status in young soccer players during a summer sports camp and to evaluate body water balance after soccer training sessions. METHODS: Initial hydration status was assessed in 107 young male soccer players (age: 11-16 [...]

Exercise-Associated Hyponatremia and Hydration Status in 161-km Ultramarathoners.

PURPOSE: This work combines and reanalyzes five years of exercise-associated hyponatremia (EAH) research at 161-km ultramarathons in northern California with primary purposes to define the relationship between post-race blood sodium concentration ([Na]) and change in body weight, examine the interactions among EAH incidence, ambient temperature and hydration state, and explore the effect of hydration status [...]

Controlling the hydration of the skin though the application of occluding barrier creams.

The skin is a barrier membrane that separates environments with profoundly different water contents. The barrier properties are assured by the outer layer of the skin, the stratum corneum (SC), which controls the transepidermal water loss. The SC acts as a responding membrane, since its hydration and permeability vary with the boundary condition, which is [...]

Dehydration and endurance performance in competitive athletes.

The field of research examining the link between dehydration and endurance performance is at the dawn of a new era. This article reviews the latest findings describing the relationship between exercise-induced dehydration and endurance performance and provides the knowledge necessary for competitive, endurance-trained athletes to develop a winning hydration strategy. Acute, pre-exercise body weight loss [...]

A rapid beverage intake questionnaire can detect changes in beverage intake.

Attention on beverage intake, specifically sugar-sweetened beverages (SSB), has increased in recent years. A brief valid, reliable and sensitive assessment tool for quantifying beverage consumption and determining its influence on weight status could help to advance research on this topic. The valid and reliable 15-item beverage questionnaire (BEVQ-15) estimates mean daily intake of water, SSB [...]

Principles of Exercise Physiology: Responses to Acute Exercise and Long-term Adaptations to Training.

Physical activity and fitness are associated with a lower prevalence of chronic diseases, such as heart disease, cancer, high blood pressure, and diabetes. This review discusses the body's response to an acute bout of exercise and long-term physiological adaptations to exercise training with an emphasis on endurance exercise. An overview is provided of skeletal muscle [...]

Parenteral Hydration in Patients With Advanced Cancer: A Multicenter, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Randomized Trial.

PURPOSE: The vast majority of patients with cancer at the end of life receive parenteral hydration in hospitals and no hydration in hospice, with limited evidence supporting either practice. In this randomized controlled trial, we determined the effect of hydration on symptoms associated with dehydration, quality of life, and survival in patients with advanced cancer. [...]

The effect of acute fluid consumption and hydration status on percent body fat and minimum wrestling weight.

ABSTRACT: The weight certification program for wrestling requires a urine specific gravity (Usg) < 1.020. However, the effect of acute rehydration on percent body fat (%BF) and minimum wrestling weight (MWW) is largely unknown. We examined the effect of acute fluid consumption on %BF and MWW. Twenty-five male subjects (18-22 y) were tested in a [...]

Investigating the associations between hydration and exercise performance: methodology and limitations.

Loss of body water, if sufficiently severe, impairs most physiological functions, but the body water content fluctuates over the course of a normal day with no implications for physical or mental performance. The point at which an effect of dehydration becomes apparent has been the subject of much debate, in part, at least, because of [...]

Hydration, morbidity, and mortality in vulnerable populations.

Both acute and chronic fluid deficits have been shown to be associated with a number of adverse health outcomes. At the extreme, deprivation of water for more than a few days inevitably leads to death, but even modest fluid deficits may precipitate adverse events, especially in young children, in the frail elderly and in those [...]
