DEHYDRATION AND DEATH DURING FEBRILE EPISODES IN THE NURSING HOME
OBJECTIVE: To determine the incidence of early hypernatremic dehydration among residents of a nursing home care unit (NHCU) presenting with significant febrile episodes (FE). DESIGN: Prospective cohort analytic study. FE were defined as temperature (T) > 100 degrees F oral (o) or 101 degrees F rectal (r) for > or = 24 hours. SETTING: NHCU [...]
DRINKING, MICTURITION HABITS, AND URINE CONCENTRATION AS POTENTIAL RISK FACTORS IN URINARY BLADDER CANCER.
Investigation of micturition and drinking habits in urban (n = 475) and rural (n = 156) working populations demonstrated less frequent micturition, decreased fluid intake, and a higher urine concentration in the urban as compared to the rural group. All these differences were significant (P less than .01) by multivariate analysis, adjusting for age and [...]
FLUID INTAKE AND THE INCIDENCE OF BLADDER CANCER AMONG MIDDLE-AGED MEN AND WOMEN IN A THREE-COUNTY AREA OF WESTERN WASHINGTON.
This population-based case-control study reports on the relationship between fluid intake and the incidence of bladder cancer among 262 bladder cancer cases from Western Washington and 405 controls identified through random-digit dialing Cases were identified from the Surveillance. Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) registry and were diagnosed between January 1987 and June 1990. All eligible [...]

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 [...]
