INTRODUCTION Heart rate variability and resting metabolic rate are commonly to assess athlete's physiological status and energy requirements. Exercise-induced dehydration can reach up to 5% of body mass per hour. Consequently, dehydration may have a profound physiological effect on human's homeostasis. OBJECTIVES To compare the effects of dehydration and rehydration after exercise on heart ra...

Dehydration in the neonatal period has many causes. Dehydration is classified as isotonic, hypotonic, or hypertonic, based on the serum osmolality that in most cases is reflected in the serum sodium level. Hypernatremic dehydration is usually caused by gastroenteritis, but it can also be caused by salt poisoning or diabetes insipidus. This type of dehydration can be especially dangerous. The hy...

Previous studies on Camellia oleifera pollen morphology have indicated dual morphologies, defined as “dimorphism”. However, they were limited to morphological at the end of final development and did not elucidate origin, structure, function second (striate pollen). In this study, differences between two “pollen” types compared by paraffin sections, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), fluorescen...

Adolescents with well-controlled cystic fibrosis, including good lung function and appropriate growth, commonly participate in competitive athletic activities. We present the case of an adolescent male with cystic fibrosis, hyponatremia, dehydration, and rhabdomyolysis after participating in football practice on a summer morning. The patient presented with severe myalgia and serum sodium of 129...

In newborns and infants, dehydration and salt wasting represent a relatively common cause of admission to hospital and may result in life-threatening complications. Kidneys are responsible for electrolyte homoeostasis, but neonatal kidneys show low glomerular filtration rate and immaturity of the distal nephron, leading to reduced ability to concentrate urine. High extrarenal fluid losses often...

introduction: neonatal hypernatremia dehydration (nhd) is a dangerous condition in neonates, which is accompanied by acute complications (renal failure, cerebral edema, and cerebral hemorrhage) and chronic complications (developmental delay). children begin learning language from birth, and hearing impairment interferes with this process. we assessed the hearing status of infants with hypernatr...

The purpose of this study was to examine the in vitro dehydration characteristics of new and worn conventional and silicone-hydrogel contact lenses. Four contact lens materials were investigated: three conventional hydrogels (etafilcon, nelfilcon, omafilcon) and one silicone-hydrogel (narafilcon). Gravimetric data were obtained with analytical balance with 1 min intervals. Quantitative paramete...

Dehydration in clinical practice, as opposed to a physiological definition, refers to the loss of body water, with or without salt, at a rate greater than the body can replace it. We argue that the clinical definition for dehydration, ie, loss of total body water, addresses the medical needs of the patient most effectively. There are 2 types of dehydration, namely water loss dehydration (hypero...
