Positive effects of maintenance of good hydration are shown for urolithiasis (category lb evidence); constipation, exercise asthma, hypertonic dehydration [...]
DEHYDRATION ENHANCES ENDOTOXIN FEVER BY INCREASED PRODUCTION OF ENDOGENOUS PYROGEN
The febrile responses in rats to an intravenous injection of the bacterial endotoxin Salmonella typhosa were investigated under normally hydrated and dehydrated conditions.

No significant differences in febrile responses [...]
