Estrogen to Progesterone Ratio and Fluid Regulatory Responses to Varying Degrees and Methods of Dehydration. Front Sports Act Living 2021; 3:722305. [PMID: 34723178 PMCID: PMC8551666 DOI: 10.3389/fspor.2021.722305] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/08/2021] [Accepted: 09/15/2021] [Indexed: 11/14/2022] Open
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between volume regulatory biomarkers and the estrogen to progesterone ratio (E:P) prior to and following varying methods and degrees of dehydration. Ten women (20 ± 1 year, 56.98 ± 7.25 kg, 164 ± 6 cm, 39.59 ± 2.96 mL•kg•min−1) completed four intermittent exercise trials (1.5 h, 33.8 ± 1.3°C, 49.5 ± 4.3% relative humidity). Testing took place in two hydration conditions, dehydrated via 24-h fluid restriction (Dehy, USG > 1.020) and euhydrated (Euhy, USG ≤ 1.020), and in two phases of the menstrual cycle, the late follicular phase (days 10–13) and midluteal phase (days 18–22). Change in body mass (%BMΔ), serum copeptin concentration, and plasma osmolality (Posm) were assessed before and after both dehydration stimuli (24-h fluid restriction and exercise heat stress). Serum estrogen and progesterone were analyzed pre-exercise only. Estrogen concentration did not differ between phases or hydration conditions. Progesterone was significantly elevated in luteal compared to follicular in both hydration conditions (Dehy—follicular: 1.156 ± 0.31, luteal: 5.190 ± 1.56 ng•mL−1, P < 0.05; Euhy—follicular: 0.915 ± 0.18, luteal: 4.498 ± 1.38 ng·mL−1, P < 0.05). As expected, E:P was significantly greater in the follicular phase compared to luteal in both hydration conditions (Dehy—F:138.94 ± 89.59, L: 64.22 ± 84.55, P < 0.01; Euhy—F:158.13 ± 70.15, L: 50.98 ± 39.69, P < 0.01, [all •103]). Copeptin concentration was increased following 24-h fluid restriction and exercise heat stress (mean change: 18 ± 9.4, P < 0.01). We observed a possible relationship of lower E:P and higher copeptin concentration following 24-h fluid restriction (r = −0.35, P = 0.054). While these results did not reach the level of statistical significance, these data suggest that the differing E:P ratio may alter fluid volume regulation during low levels of dehydration but have no apparent impact after dehydrating exercise in the heat.

Efficacy of Ingesting an Oral Rehydration Solution after Exercise on Fluid Balance and Endurance Performance. Nutrients 2020; 12:nu12123826. [PMID: 33333771 PMCID: PMC7765193 DOI: 10.3390/nu12123826] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/18/2020] [Revised: 12/07/2020] [Accepted: 12/11/2020] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
This study investigated the efficacy of ingesting an oral rehydration solution (DD) that has a high electrolyte concentration after exercise on fluid balance and cycling performance in comparison with a sports drink (SD) and water (WA). Nine healthy males aged 24 ± 2 years (mean ± SD), with peak oxygen uptake (VO2 peak) 55 ± 6 mL·kg−1·min−1 completed three experimental trials in a randomised manner ingesting WA, SD (carbohydrates: 62 g·L−1, sodium: 31 ± 3 mmol·L−1) or DD (carbohydrates: 33 g·L−1, sodium: 60 ± 3 mmol·L−1). On all trials, fluid was ingested during 75 min cycling at 65% VO2 peak (temperature: 30.4 ± 0.3 °C, relative humidity: 76 ± 1%, simulated wind speed: 8.0 ± 0.6 m·s−1) and during 2 h of recovery (temperature: 23.0 ± 1.0 °C, relative humidity: 67 ± 2%), with the total volume equivalent to 150% of sweat loss during the ride. A 45 min pre-load cycling time trial at a 65% VO2 peak followed by a 20 km time trial was conducted after a further 3 h of recovery. Fluid retention was higher with DD (30 ± 15%) than WA (−4 ± 19%; p < 0.001) and SD (10 ± 15%; p = 0.002). Mean ratings of palatability were similar among drinks (WA: 4.25 ± 2.60; SD: 5.61 ± 1.79; DD: 5.40 ± 1.58; p = 0.33). Although time trial performance was similar across all three trials (WA: 2365 ± 321 s; SD: 2252 ± 174 s; DD: 2268 ± 184 s; p = 0.65), the completion time was faster in eight participants with SD and seven participants with DD than with WA. Comparing SD with DD, completion time was reduced in five participants and increased in four participants. DD was more effective at restoring the fluid deficit during recovery from exercise than SD and WA without compromising the drink’s palatability with increased sodium concentration. Most individuals demonstrated better endurance exercise time trial performance with DD and SD than with WA.

Abstract
The kidneys' integrative responses to heat stress aid thermoregulation, cardiovascular control, and water and electrolyte regulation. Recent evidence suggests the kidneys are at increased risk of pathological events during heat stress, namely acute kidney injury (AKI), and that this risk is compounded by dehydration and exercise. This heat stress related AKI is believed to contribute to the epidemic of chronic kidney disease (CKD) occurring in occupational settings. It is estimated that AKI and CKD affect upwards of 45 million individuals in the global workforce. Water and electrolyte disturbances and AKI, both of which are representative of kidney-related pathology, are the two leading causes of hospitalizations during heat waves in older adults. Structural and physiological alterations in aging kidneys likely contribute to this increased risk. With this background, this comprehensive narrative review will provide the first aggregation of research into the integrative physiological response of the kidneys to heat stress. While the focus of this review is on the human kidneys, we will utilize both human and animal data to describe these responses to passive and exercise heat stress, and how they are altered with heat acclimation. Additionally, we will discuss recent studies that indicate an increased risk of AKI due to exercise in the heat. Lastly, we will introduce the emerging public health crisis of older adults during extreme heat events and how the aging kidneys may be more susceptible to injury during heat stress.

Abstract
NEW FINDINGS What is the central question of this study? Does passive heat acclimation alter glomerular filtration rate and urine-concentrating ability in response to passive heat stress? What is the main finding and its importance? Glomerular filtration rate remained unchanged after passive heat stress, and heat acclimation did not alter this response. However, heat acclimation mitigated the reduction in urine-concentrating ability and reduced the incidence of albuminuria in young healthy adults after passive heat stress. Collectively, these results suggest that passive heat acclimation might improve structural integrity and reduce glomerular permeability during passive heat stress. ABSTRACT Little is known about the effect of heat acclimation on kidney function during heat stress. The purpose of this study was to determine the impact of passive heat stress and subsequent passive heat acclimation on markers of kidney function. Twelve healthy adults (seven men and five women; 26 ± 5 years of age; 72.7 ± 8.6 kg; 172.4 ± 7.5 cm) underwent passive heat stress before and after a 7 day controlled hyperthermia heat acclimation protocol. The impact of passive heat exposure on urine and serum markers of kidney function was evaluated before and after heat acclimation. Glomerular filtration rate, determined from creatinine clearance, was unchanged with passive heat stress before (pre, 133 ± 41 ml min-1 ; post, 127 ± 51 ml min-1 ; P = 0.99) and after (pre, 129 ± 46 ml min-1 ; post, 130 ± 36 ml min-1 ; P = 0.99) heat acclimation. The urine-to-serum osmolality ratio was reduced after passive heating (P < 0.01), but heat acclimation did not alter this response. In comparison to baseline, free water clearance was greater after passive heating before (pre, -0.86 ± 0.67 ml min-1 ; post, 0.40 ± 1.01 ml min-1 ; P < 0.01) but not after (pre, -0.16 ± 0.57 ml min-1 ; post, 0.76 ± 1.2 ml min-1 ; P = 0.11) heat acclimation. Furthermore, passive heating increased the fractional excretion rate of potassium (P < 0.03) but not sodium (P = 0.13) or chloride (P = 0.20). Lastly, heat acclimation reduced the fractional incidence of albuminuria after passive heating (before, 58 ± 51%; after, 8 ± 29%; P = 0.03). Collectively, these results demonstrate that passive heat stress does not alter the glomerular filtration rate. However, heat acclimation might improve urine-concentrating ability and filtration within the glomerulus.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Occupational heat exposure is a serious concern for worker health, productivity, and the economy. Few studies in North America assess how on-site wet bulb globe temperature (WBGT) levels and guidelines are applied in practice. METHODS We assessed the use of a WBGT sensor for localized summertime heat exposures experienced by outdoor laborers at an industrial worksite in Ontario, Canada during the warm season (May-October) from 2012 to 2018 inclusive. We further examined informed decision making, approximated workers' predicted heat strain (sweat loss, core temperature), and estimated potential financial loss (via hourly wages) due to decreased work allowance in the heat. RESULTS Significantly higher worksite WBGT levels occured compared with regional levels estimated at the airport, with an upward trend in heat warnings over the 7 years and expansion of warnings into the fall season. The maximum WBGT during warnings related strongly to predicted hourly sweat loss. On average, 22 hours per worker were lost each summer (~1% of annual work hours) as a result of taking breaks or stopping due to heat. This amount of time corresponded to an average individual loss of C$1100 Canadian dollars (~C$220,000 combined for ~200 workers) to workers or the company. The additional losses for an enterprise due to reduced product output were not estimated. CONCLUSIONS Worksite observations and actions at the microscale are essential for improving the estimates of health and economic costs of extreme heat to enterprises and society. Providing worksite heat metrics to the employees aids in appropriate decision making and health protection.

Accelerated muscle contractility and decreased muscle steadiness following sauna recovery do not induce greater neuromuscular fatigability during sustained submaximal contractions.

Abstract
Acute whole-body hyperthermia (WBH) increases blood markers concentration of stress, impairs motor drive to exercising muscles, and decreases resistance to neuromuscular fatigability. The functional natural residual consequences of WBH on neuromuscular functions remain unclear. We aimed to investigate the effects of residual WBH on voluntary and electrically induced ankle plantar flexor contractility properties, motor drive transmission (reflexes), muscle torque steadiness, resistance to neuromuscular fatigability, and markers of stress as the body temperature recovers naturally to normothermia. WBH was induced by Finnish sauna bathing in 16 apparently healthy young (24 ± 4 years) adult men. Motor performance was monitored before and 2 h after the sauna, and immediately after submaximal exercise (120 s at 50% of maximal voluntary contraction). Markers of stress were monitored before and 2 h after the sauna. Finnish sauna exposure induced moderate to severe WBH (rectal temperature, 38.5-39.6 °C). At 2 h after the sauna, rectal temperature had recovered to the preheating level (preheating 37.11 ± 0.33 °C versus postheating 37.00 ± 0.29 °C, p > .05). Post-sauna recovery was accompanied by slowed salivary free cortisol diurnal kinetics, whereas noradrenaline, dopamine, and serotonin did not persist into the 2 h recovery after the sauna. Although recovery to normothermia after a sauna led to a greater acceleration of muscle contractility properties and decreased muscle steadiness, sustained isometric submaximal contraction did not provoke greater neuromuscular fatigability.

Abstract
Exercise and exogenous heat each stimulate multiple adaptations, but their roles are not well delineated, and that of the related stressor, dehydration, is largely unknown. While severe and prolonged hypohydration potentially “silences” the long-term heat acclimated phenotype, mild and transient dehydration may enhance cardiovascular and fluid-regulatory adaptations. We tested the hypothesis that exogenous heat stress and dehydration additively potentiate acute (24 h) cardiovascular and hematological outcomes following exercise. In a randomized crossover study, 10 physically-active volunteers (mean ± SD: 173 ± 11 cm; 72.1 ± 11.5 kg; 24 ± 3 year; 6 females) completed three trials of 90-min orthostatically-stressful calisthenics, in: (i) temperate conditions (22°C, 50% rh, no airflow; CON); (ii) heat (40°C, 60% rh) whilst euhydrated (HEAT), and (iii) heat with dehydration (no fluid ~16 h before and during exercise; HEAT+DEHY). Using linear mixed effects model analyses, core temperature (TCORE) rose 0.7°C more in HEAT than CON (95% CL: [0.5, 0.9]; p < 0.001), and another 0.4°C in HEAT+DEHY ([0.2, 0.5]; p < 0.001, vs. HEAT). Skin temperature also rose 1.2°C more in HEAT than CON ([0.6, 1.8]; p < 0.001), and similarly to HEAT+DEHY (p = 0.922 vs. HEAT). Peak heart rate was 40 b·min−1 higher in HEAT than in CON ([28, 51]; p < 0.001), and another 15 b·min−1 higher in HEAT+DEHY ([3, 27]; p = 0.011, vs. HEAT). Mean arterial pressure at 24-h recovery was not consistently below baseline after CON or HEAT (p ≥ 0.452), but was reduced 4 ± 1 mm Hg after HEAT+DEHY ([0, 8]; p = 0.020 vs. baseline). Plasma volume at 24 h after exercise increased in all trials; the 7% increase in HEAT was not reliably more than in CON (5%; p = 0.335), but was an additional 4% larger after HEAT+DEHY ([1, 8]; p = 0.005 vs. HEAT). Pooled-trial correlational analysis showed the rise in TCORE predicted the hypotension (r = −0.4) and plasma volume expansion (r = 0.6) at 24 h, with more hypotension reflecting more plasma expansion (r = −0.5). In conclusion, transient dehydration with heat potentiates short-term (24-h) hematological (hypervolemic) and cardiovascular (hypotensive) outcomes following calisthenics.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To present evidence-based recommendations that promote optimized fluid-maintenance practices for physically active individuals. BACKGROUND Both a lack of adequate fluid replacement (hypohydration) and excessive intake (hyperhydration) can compromise athletic performance and increase health risks. Athletes need access to water to prevent hypohydration during physical activity but must be aware of the risks of overdrinking and hyponatremia. Drinking behavior can be modified by education, accessibility, experience, and palatability. This statement updates practical recommendations regarding fluid-replacement strategies for physically active individuals. RECOMMENDATIONS Educate physically active people regarding the benefits of fluid replacement to promote performance and safety and the potential risks of both hypohydration and hyperhydration on health and physical performance. Quantify sweat rates for physically active individuals during exercise in various environments. Work with individuals to develop fluid-replacement practices that promote sufficient but not excessive hydration before, during, and after physical activity.

Abstract
CONTEXT Urine lactate may be a novel biomarker of lactate production capacity but its reliability has been unsatisfactory so far. OBJECTIVE To compare the reliability of urine lactate between controlled hydration and no hydration after maximal exercise. MATERIAL AND METHODS Athletes performed swimming exercise four times: two followed by consumption of 1 L of water and two followed by no water intake. Blood and urine lactate was measured. RESULTS The reliability of urine lactate was good and similar to that in blood only after controlled hydration. Blood and urine lactate were correlated under both hydration conditions. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION Controlled hydration after exercise provides satisfactory reliability of urine lactate.

Abstract
Both acute and chronic dehydration can have important implications for human behaviour and health. Young children, non-autonomous individuals and the elderly are at a greater risk of dehydration. Mild hypertonic dehydration could be related to less efficient cognitive and physical performance and has been reported to be associated with frequently occurring pathological conditions, especially nephrolithiasis. The assessment of hydration status in a large sample appears to be of interest for conducting epidemiological and large clinical studies aimed at improving preventive and curative care. Especially in large-population studies, methods that are used have to be accurate, cheap, quick and require no technical expertise. Body weight change is widely used to determine acute hydration changes, but seems to be insufficiently accurate in longitudinal studies. Bioimpedance analysis methods enable the assessment of total body water content, but their use is still under debate. Because plasma osmolality directly reflects intracellular osmolality, it constitutes a good marker to assess acute hydration changes, but not chronic hydration status because it changes constantly. Moreover, venepuncture is considered to be invasive and is not suitable for a large-sample study, especially in children. Urinary markers appear to be good alternatives for assessing hydration status in large populations. Collection of urine samples is non-invasive and cheap. High technical expertise is not required to perform urinary marker measurements and these measurements can be carried out quickly. Thus, methods based on urinary markers are very well suited for field studies. Urine colour is probably the least sensitive marker despite its high specificity. Urine osmolality and especially urine specific gravity could be easily used for determining hydration status in large-sample studies.

Abstract
Since the 1980’s, novel functional roles of the neurohypophyseal hormones vasopressin and oxytocin have emerged. Several studies have investigated the effects of these two neurohormones on striated muscle tissues, both in vitro and in vivo. The effects of vasopressin on skeletal myogenic cells, developing muscle and muscle homeostasis have been documented. Oxytocin appears to have a greater influence on cardiomyocite differentiation and heart homeostasis. This review summarizes the studies on these novel roles of the two neurohypophyseal hormones, and open the possibility of new therapeutic approaches for diseases affecting striated muscle.

Abstract
A regulatory effect of arginine vasopressin (AVP) on sweat water conservation has been hypothesized but not definitively evaluated. AVP-mediated insertion of sweat and salivary gland aquaporin-5 (AQP5) water channels through activation of the vasopressin type 2 receptor (V2R) remains an attractive, yet unexplored, mechanism that could result in a more concentrated sweat with resultant decreased water loss. Ten runners participated in a double-blind randomized control treadmill trial under three separate pharmacological conditions: a placebo, V2R agonist (0.2 mg desmopressin), or V2R antagonist (30 mg tolvaptan). After a familiarization trial, runners ran for 60 min at 60% of peak speed followed by a performance trial to volitional exhaustion. Outcome variables were collected at three exercise time points: baseline, after the steady-state run, and after the performance run. Body weight losses were <2% across all three trials. Significant pharmacological condition effects were noted for urine osmolality [F = 84.98; P < 0.0001] and urine sodium concentration ([Na(+)]) [F = 38.9; P < 0.0001], which verified both pharmacological activation and inhibition of the V2R at the kidney collecting duct. Plasma osmolality and [Na(+)] demonstrated significant exercise (F = 26.0 and F = 11.1; P < 0.0001) and condition (F = 5.1 and F = 3.8; P < 0.05) effects (osmolality and [Na(+)], respectively). No significant exercise or condition effects were noted for either sweat or salivary [Na(+)]. Significant exercise effects were noted for plasma [AVP] (F = 22.3; P < 0.0001), peak core temperature (F = 103.3; P < 0.0001), percent body weight change (F = 6.3; P = 0.02), plasma volume change (F = 21.8; P < 0.0001), and thirst rating (F = 78.2; P < 0.0001). Performance time was not altered between conditions (P = 0.80). In summary, AVP acting at V2R does not appear to regulate water losses from body fluids other than renal excretion during exercise.

Abstract
Skeletal muscle atrophy occurs during disuse and aging, or as a consequence of chronic diseases such as cancer and diabetes. It is characterized by progressive loss of muscle tissue due to hypotrophic changes, degeneration, and an inability of the regeneration machinery to replace damaged myofibers. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) is a proinflammatory cytokine known to mediate muscle atrophy in many chronic diseases and to inhibit skeletal muscle regeneration. In this study, we investigated the role of Arg-vasopressin-(AVP-)dependent pathways in muscles in which atrophy was induced by local overexpression of TNF. AVP is a potent myogenesis-promoting factor and is able to enhance skeletal muscle regeneration by stimulating Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent kinase and calcineurin signaling. We performed morphological and molecular analyses and demonstrated that local over-expression of the AVP receptor V1a enhances regeneration of atrophic muscle. By upregulating the regeneration/differentiation markers, modulating the inflammatory response, and attenuating fibrogenesis, the stimulation of AVP-dependent pathways creates a favourable environment for efficient and sustained muscle regeneration and repair even in the presence of elevated levels of TNF. This study highlights a novel in vivo role for AVP-dependent pathways, which may represent an interesting strategy to counteract muscle decline in aging or in muscular pathologies.

Abstract
An attention network test (ANT) provides a behavioral measure of the efficiency of the three attention networks (alerting, orienting and executive networks) within a single task. In the present study, we investigated the effect of passive hyperthermia on the attention network with event-related functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). The behavioral results showed that passive hyperthermia of 50 °C and 40% relative humidity impaired the executive function, but showed no effect on the alerting and orienting networks. The fMRI results showed that: (i) passive hyperthermia enhanced the activity in the right superior frontal gyrus and depressed the activity in the right middle occipital gyrus, left inferior parietal lobule and left culmen in the alerting network, (ii) passive hyperthermia enhanced the activity in the temporal lobe and depressed the activity in the frontal lobe, parietal lobe and occipital lobe in the orienting network, and (iii) passive hyperthermia enhanced the activity in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex but did not affect the activity in the anterior cingulate. We concluded that passive hyperthermia impaired executive function, especially the efficiency of resolving conflict and the negative effects of passive hyperthermia on alerting and orienting were overcome through variant regional brain activation.

Abstract
The ability of the human body to regulate plasma osmolality (POsm) within a very narrow and well defined physiological range underscores the vital importance of preserving water and sodium balance at rest and during exercise. The principle endocrine regulator of whole body fluid homeostasis is the posterior pituitary hormone, arginine vasopressin (AVP). Inappropriate AVP secretion may perpetuate either slow or rapid violation of these biological boundaries, thereby promoting pathophysiology, morbidity and occasional mortality. In the resting state, AVP secretion is primarily regulated by changes in POsm (osmotic regulation). The osmotic regulation of AVP secretion during exercise, however, may possibly be enhanced or overridden by many potential non-osmotic factors concurrently stimulated during physical activity, particularly during competition. The prevalence of these highly volatile non-osmotic AVP stimuli during strenuous or prolonged physical activity may reflect a teleological mechanism to promote water conservation during exercise. However, non-osmotic AVP secretion, combined with high fluid availability plus sustained fluid intake (exceeding fluid output), has been hypothesized to lead to an increase in both the incidence and related deaths from exercise-associated hyponatraemia (EAH) in lay and military populations. Inappropriately, high plasma AVP concentrations ([AVP](p)) associated with low blood sodium concentrations facilitate fluid retention and sodium loss, thereby possibly reconciling both the water intoxication and sodium loss theories of hyponatraemia that are currently under debate. Therefore, given the potential for a variety of exercise-induced non-osmotic stimuli for AVP secretion, hydration strategies must be flexible, individualized and open to change during competitive events to prevent the occurrence of rare, but life-threatening, EAH. This review focuses on the potential osmotic and non-osmotic stimuli to AVP secretion that may affect fluid homeostasis during physical activity. Recent laboratory and field data support: (i) stimulatory effects of exercise intensity and duration on [AVP](p); (ii) possible relationships between changes in POsm with changes in both sweat and urinary osmolality; (iii) alterations in the AVP osmoregulatory set-point by sex steroid hormones; (iv) differences in [AVP](p) in trained versus untrained athletes; and (v) potential inter-relationships between AVP and classical (aldosterone, atrial natriuretic peptide) and non-classical (oxytocin, interleukin-6) endocrine mediators. The review concludes with a hypothesis on how sustained fluid intakes beyond the capacity for fluid loss might possibly facilitate the development of hyponatraemia if exercise-induced non-osmotic stimuli override 'normal' osmotic suppression of AVP when hypo-osmolality exists.

Abstract
The primary aims of this paper were to examine the effect of heat stress on working memory, choice reaction time and mood state, and to investigate the relationship between heat induced changes in plasma concentrations of selected neurotransmitters and hormones, and cognition. Heat stress resulted in a deterioration of performance on a central executive task (random movement generation) but not on verbal and spatial recall, and choice reaction time tasks. Perceptions of vigour decreased and fatigue increased following exposure to heat stress. Plasma concentrations of cortisol and 5-hydroxytryptamine significantly increased following exposure to heat. Regression analyses showed that percent body mass loss and change from baseline (Delta) concentrations of cortisol, post-exposure to heat, were significant predictors of Delta random movement generation and Delta fatigue. A secondary purpose was to examine the effect of recovery on cognition and mood. Following recovery, the performance of the central executive task was poorer than pre-treatment. Mood states, catecholamines and 5-hydroxytryptamine concentrations returned to pre-treatment values, but cortisol fell to a level significantly lower. Regression correlations showed that Delta adrenaline and Delta scores, post-recovery, on the central executive task were significantly correlated. Delta noradrenaline correlated significantly with Delta fatigue. It was concluded that heat stress results in deterioration in the performance of central executive tasks and perceptions of mood state, and that this can be predicted by changes in body mass loss and plasma concentrations of the hormones cortisol and adrenaline.

Abstract
During arm exercise (A), mean arterial pressure (MAP) is higher than during leg exercise (L). We evaluated the effect of central blood volume on the MAP response to exercise by determining plasma atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) during moderate upright and supine A, L and combined arm and leg exercise (A + L) in 11 male subjects. In the upright position, MAP was higher during A than at rest (102 +/- 6 versus 89 +/- 6 mmHg; mean +/- s.d.) and during L (95 +/- 7 mmHg; P < 0.05), but similar to that during A + L (100 +/- 6 mmHg). There was no significant change in plasma ANP during A, while plasma ANP was higher during L and A + L (42.7 +/- 12.2 and 43.3 +/- 17.1 pg ml(-1), respectively) than at rest (34.6 +/- 14.3 pg ml(-1), P < 0.001). In the supine position, MAP was also higher during A than at rest (100 +/- 7 versus 86 +/- 5 mmHg) and during L (92 +/- 5 mmHg; P < 0.01) but similar to that during A + L (102 +/- 6 mmHg). During supine A, plasma ANP was higher than at rest and during L but lower than during A + L (73.1 +/- 22.5 versus 47.2 +/- 15.9, 67.4 +/- 18.3 and 78.1 +/- 25.0 pg ml(-1), respectively; P < 0.05). Thus, upright A was the exercise mode that did not enhance plasma ANP, suggesting that central blood volume did not increase. The results suggest that the similar blood pressure response to A and to A + L may relate to the enhanced central blood volume following the addition of leg to arm exercise.

Abstract
Arginine vasopressin (AVP) release into the bloodstream is essential for water balance in the body and, thus, for core-temperature regulation. We investigated the effect of the AVP analog desmopressin (Des) on the performance of 6 endurance runners in a simulated heat condition. Four strenuous treadmill runs were performed at a 1-week interval. Over the 4 test sessions, room temperature and relative humidity were 22 +/- 0.4 degrees C and 47% +/- 7%, respectively. Each run included 40 min at 60% maximal aerobic velocity immediately followed by an incremental run until exhaustion. Dehydration and hyperthermia were induced by wearing an impermeable tracksuit. Two runs were performed with no hydration (NH; NH-Des) and two under false hydration (FH; FH-Des). Under FH conditions, the runner was given a set amount of water every 5 min of the run, which was kept in the mouth for 10 s and spat out. Under NH-Des and FH-Des conditions, the run was performed 60 min after a 30 microg intranasal administration of desmopressin. In the NH-Des trial, the total distance run was 5%-8% longer than in the other conditions (p < 0.05). This was associated with a lower heart rate after the 40 min run than occurred in the NH and FH trials (p < 0.01) and a lower tympanic temperature than in the FH trial (p < 0.05). Urine mass was also lower under NH-Des conditions than under NH and FH conditions (p < 0.05). It is suggested that desmopressin administration could improve dramatically prolonged running performances in a hot and humid environment.

Abstract
RATIONALE Sleep deprivation has a negative effect on cognitive and psychomotor performance and mood state, partially due to decreases in creatine levels in the brain. Therefore, creatine supplementation should lessen the negative effects of sleep deprivation. OBJECTIVES The objective of this study was to examine the effect of creatine supplementation and sleep deprivation, with mild exercise, on cognitive and psychomotor performance, mood state, and plasma concentrations of catecholamines and cortisol. METHOD Subjects were divided into a creatine group (n=10) and a placebo group (n=9). They took 5 g of creatine monohydrate or a placebo, dependent on their group, four times a time a day for 7 days, immediately prior to the experiment. The study was double blind. Subjects undertook tests of random movement generation (RMG), verbal and spatial recall, choice reaction time, static balance and mood state pre-test (0 h), after 6, 12 and 24 h of sleep deprivation, with intermittent exercise. They were tested for plasma concentrations of catecholamines and cortisol at 0 and 24 h. RESULTS At 24 h, the creatine group demonstrated significantly less change in performance from 0 h (delta) in RMG, choice reaction time, balance and mood state. There were no significant differences between groups in plasma concentrations of catecholamines and cortisol. Norepinephrine and dopamine concentrations were significantly higher at 24 h than 0 h, but cortisol were lower. CONCLUSIONS Following 24-h sleep deprivation, creatine supplementation had a positive effect on mood state and tasks that place a heavy stress on the prefrontal cortex.

Abstract
Numerous studies have confirmed that performance can be impaired when athletes are dehydrated. Endurance athletes should drink beverages containing carbohydrate and electrolyte during and after training or competition. Carbohydrates (sugars) favor consumption and Na(+) favors retention of water. Drinking during competition is desirable compared with fluid ingestion after or before training or competition only. Athletes seldom replace fluids fully due to sweat loss. Proper hydration during training or competition will enhance performance, avoid ensuing thermal stress, maintain plasma volume, delay fatigue, and prevent injuries associated with dehydration and sweat loss. In contrast, hyperhydration or overdrinking before, during, and after endurance events may cause Na(+) depletion and may lead to hyponatremia. It is imperative that endurance athletes replace sweat loss via fluid intake containing about 4% to 8% of carbohydrate solution and electrolytes during training or competition. It is recommended that athletes drink about 500 mL of fluid solution 1 to 2 h before an event and continue to consume cool or cold drinks in regular intervals to replace fluid loss due to sweat. For intense prolonged exercise lasting longer than 1 h, athletes should consume between 30 and 60 g/h and drink between 600 and 1200 mL/h of a solution containing carbohydrate and Na(+) (0.5 to 0.7 g/L of fluid). Maintaining proper hydration before, during, and after training and competition will help reduce fluid loss, maintain performance, lower submaximal exercise heart rate, maintain plasma volume, and reduce heat stress, heat exhaustion, and possibly heat stroke.

Abstract
During exercise-heat stress, ad libitum drinking frequently fails to match sweat output, resulting in deleterious changes in hormonal, circulatory, thermoregulatory, and psychological status. This condition, known as voluntary dehydration, is largely based on perceived thirst. To examine the role of preexercise dehydration on thirst and drinking during exercise-heat stress, 10 healthy men (21 ± 1 yr, 57 ± 1 ml·kg−1·min−1 maximal aerobic power) performed four randomized walking trials (90 min, 5.6 km/h, 5% grade) in the heat (33°C, 56% relative humidity). Trials differed in preexercise hydration status [euhydrated (Eu) or hypohydrated to −3.8 ± 0.2% baseline body weight (Hy)] and water intake during exercise [no water (NW) or water ad libitum (W)]. Blood samples taken preexercise and immediately postexercise were analyzed for hematocrit, hemoglobin, serum aldosterone, plasma osmolality (Posm), plasma vasopressin (PAVP), and plasma renin activity (PRA). Thirst was evaluated at similar times using a subjective nine-point scale. Subjects were thirstier before (6.65 ± 0.65) and drank more during Hy+W (1.65 ± 0.18 liters) than Eu+W (1.59 ± 0.41 and 0.31 ± 0.11 liters, respectively). Postexercise measures of Posm and PAVP were significantly greater during Hy+NW and plasma volume lower [Hy+NW = −5.5 ± 1.4% vs. Hy+W = +1.0 ± 2.5% ( P = 0.059), Eu+NW = −0.7 ± 0.6% ( P < 0.05), Eu+W = +0.5 ± 1.6% ( P < 0.05)] than all other trials. Except for thirst and drinking, however, no Hy+W values differed from Eu+NW or Eu+W values. In conclusion, dehydration preceding low-intensity exercise in the heat magnifies thirst-driven drinking during exercise-heat stress. Such changes result in similar fluid regulatory hormonal responses and comparable modifications in plasma volume regardless of preexercise hydration state.

Abstract
Hydration is recommended in order to decrease the overload on the cardiovascular system when healthy individuals exercise, mainly in the heat. To date, no criteria have been established for hydration for hypertensive (HY) individuals during exercise in a hot environment. Eight male HY volunteers without another medical problem and 8 normal (NO) subjects (46 +/- 3 and 48 +/- 1 years; 78.8 +/- 2.5 and 79.5 +/- 2.8 kg; 171 +/- 2 and 167 +/- 1 cm; body mass index=26.8 +/- 0.7 and 28.5 +/- 0.6 kg/m2; resting systolic (SBP)=142.5 and 112.5 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure (DBP)=97.5 and 78.1 mmHg, respectively) exercised for 60 min on a cycle ergometer (40% of VO2peak) with (500 ml 2 h before and 115 ml every 15 min throughout exercise) or without water ingestion, in a hot humid environment (30 masculine C and 85% humidity). Rectal (Tre) and skin (Tsk) temperatures, heart rate (HR), SBP, DBP, double product (DP), urinary volume (Vu), urine specific gravity (Gu), plasma osmolality (Posm), sweat rate (S R), and hydration level were measured. Data were analyzed using ANOVA in a split plot design, followed by the Newman-Keuls test. There were no differences in Vu, Posm, Gu and S R responses between HY and NO during heat exercise with or without water ingestion but there was a gradual increase in HR (59 and 51%), SBP (18 and 28%), DP (80 and 95%), Tre (1.4 and 1.3%), and Tsk (6 and 3%) in HY and NO, respectively. HY had higher HR (10%), SBP (21%), DBP (20%), DP (34%), and Tsk (1%) than NO during both experimental situations. The exercise-related differences in SBP, DP and Tsk between HY and NO were increased by water ingestion (P<0.05). The results showed that cardiac work and Tsk during exercise were higher in HY than in NO and the difference between the two groups increased even further with water ingestion. It was concluded that hydration protocol recommended for NO during exercise could induce an abnormal cardiac and thermoregulatory responses for HY individuals without drug therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Recently, a new oral rehydration solution (ORS) called Resomal has been designed specifically for children with severe malnutrition. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of malnutrition on renal and intestinal responses to dehydration, and to compare intestinal water and electrolyte absorption from Resomal and from the standard World Health Organization-Oral Rehydration Solution (WHO-ORS). METHOD Malnutrition was achieved in a rabbit model by feeding the animals daily for 30 days with half the amount of food that a well-nourished group of control animals had consumed on the previous day. Dehydration was achieved by water deprivation for 46 hours in both control and malnourished rabbits. At 46 hours, dehydration was assessed by changes in body weight, urinary volume and osmolarity, and blood urea nitrogen concentration. At that time active colonic and jejunal mucosal electrolyte transport in Ussing chambers was also measured. Small intestinal absorption of water, sodium, and potassium was measured in vivo during intestinal perfusion of the two ORSs and in vitro by measurement of mucosal electrogenic glucose-stimulated sodium absorption across intestinal patches. RESULTS Compared to controls (C), well-nourished but dehydrated (C+D) animals lost 12% of their body weight, with an 87% reduction in urine volume, a 110% increase in urine osmolality, and a 94% increase in blood urea nitrogen. In the colon of C+D animals, short-circuit current (Isc) and net sodium transepithelial flux (JNa+ net) were increased. Almost identical results were obtained in malnourished and dehydrated (M+D) animals. In the jejunum, net in vivo absorption of water (JWater), sodium (JNa+), and potassium (JK+) were increased during standard ORS infusion in both dehydrated groups. During Resomal infusion, water absorption was the same as seen with WHO-ORS, but sodium absorption was reduced, and potassium absorption was increased in both well-nourished and malnourished dehydrated animals. In vitro, compared to controls, the glucose-stimulated short-circuit current (DeltaIsc), JNa+ net and G were increased in both dehydrated groups. CONCLUSION During experimental dehydration, the kidney and large intestine salvage water and electrolytes, thus reducing the consequences of dehydration. These findings indicate that jejunal water absorption from Resomal and WHO-ORS is increased during dehydration, but Resomal allows for less sodium and more potassium to be absorbed, both in well-nourished and malnourished dehydrated rabbits.

Abstract
During exercise, sweat output often exceeds water intake, producing a water deficit or hypohydration. The water deficit lowers both intracellular and extracellular fluid volumes, and causes a hypotonic-hypovolemia of the blood. Aerobic exercise tasks are likely to be adversely effected by hypohydration (even in the absence of heat strain), with the potential affect being greater in hot environments. Hypohydration increases heat storage by reducing sweating rate and skin blood flow responses for a given core temperature. Hypertonicity and hypovolemia both contribute to reduced heat loss and increased heat storage. In addition, hypovolemia and the displacement of blood to the skin make it difficult to maintain central venous pressure and thus cardiac output to simultaneously support metabolism and thermoregulation. Hyperhydration provides no advantages over euhydration regarding thermoregulation and exercise performance in the heat.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) is synthesized and stored in myocytes as prohormone(1-126), which upon release is cleaved into proANP(1-98) and α-ANP(99-126). In addition, cleavage of proANP(1-98) produces proANP(1-30), proANP(31-67), and proANP(79-98) fragments. ProANP(1-30) and proANP(31-67) have roles in fluid and electrolyte homeostasis. The aim of the present study was to develop a plasma assay for proANP(1-30) and proANP(31-67) and to compare results in trained athletes and sedentary subjects.
Methods: Two competitive enzyme immunoassays were established with affinity-purified sheep antiserum against synthetic ANP fragments. The immunoreactivity (ir) of proANP(1-30) and proANP(31-67) was measured in 10-μL plasma samples without extraction in a microwell-based assay. Plasma concentrations in sedentary male subjects (n = 22) and male endurance athletes (n = 14) were examined.
Results: In the assay for ir-proANP(1-30) and ir-proANP(31-67), the concentrations at 95% B/B0 were 4.7 and 14.2 pmol/L, respectively. Within-run CVs were 4–6% and 5–6%, and between-run CVs were 9% for both assays. Both assays were linear on dilution (y = 0.9945x − 0.7291 and y = 1.0001x − 3.428), and the recoveries were 102–112% and 102–106%, respectively. In the sedentary and athletic groups, the ir-proANP(1-30) concentrations were similar: 318 ± 38 pmol/L and 312 ± 25 pmol/L (mean ± SE), respectively, whereas the ir-proANP(31-67) was higher in the rowers (713 ± 81 pmol/L) than in the sedentary subjects (387 ± 71 pmol/L; P <0.005).
Conclusions: The proANP fragment assays are precise (CV <10%) and exhibit nearly quantitative recovery (102–112%). Only ir-proANP(31-67) responds to physical training.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To examine the incidence, clinical state, personal risk factors, haematology, and biochemistry of heat exhaustion occurring at a deep underground metalliferous mine. To describe the underground thermal conditions associated with the occurrence of heat exhaustion. METHODS A 1 year prospective case series of acute heat exhaustion was undertaken. A history was obtained with a structured questionnaire. Pulse rate, blood pressure, tympanic temperature, and specific gravity of urine were measured before treatment. Venous blood was analysed for haematological and biochemical variables, during the acute presentation and after recovery. Body mass index (BMI) and maximum O2 consumption (VO2 max) were measured after recovery. Psychrometric wet bulb temperature, dry bulb temperature, and air velocity were measured at the underground sites where heat exhaustion had occurred. Air cooling power and psychrometric wet bulb globe temperature were derived from these data. RESULTS 106 Cases were studied. The incidence of heat exhaustion during the year was 43.0 cases/million man-hours. In February it was 147 cases/million man-hours. The incidence rate ratio for mines operating below 1200 m compared with those operating above 1200 m was 3.17. Mean estimated fluid intake was 0.64 l/h (SD 0.29, range 0.08-1.50). The following data were increased in acute presentation compared with recovery (p value, % of acute cases above the normal clinical range): neutrophils (p < 0.001, 36%), anion gap (p < 0.001, 63%), urea (p < 0.001, 21%), creatinine (p < 0.001, 30%), glucose (p < 0.001, 15%), serum osmolality (p = 0.030, 71%), creatine kinase (p = 0.002, 45%), aspartate transaminase (p < 0.001, 14%), lactate dehydrogenase (p < 0.001, 9.5%), and ferritin (p < 0.001, 26%). The following data were depressed in acute presentation compared with recovery (p value, % of acute cases below the normal clinical range): eosinophils (p = 0.003, 38%) and bicarbonate (p = 0.011, 32%). Urea and creatinine were significantly increased in miners with heat cramps compared with miners without this symptom (p < 0.001), but there was no significant difference in sodium concentration (p = 0.384). Mean psychrometric wet bulb temperature was 29.0 degrees C (SD 2.2, range 21.0-34.0). Mean dry bulb temperature was 37.4 degrees C (SD 2.4, range 31.0-43.0). Mean air velocity was 0.54 m/s (SD 0.57, range 0.00-4.00). Mean air cooling power was 148 W/m2 (SD 49, range 33-290) Mean psychrometric wet bulb globe temperature was 31.5 degrees C (SD 2.0, range 25.2-35.3). Few cases (< 5%) occurred at psychrometric wet bulb temperature < 25.0 degrees C, dry bulb temperature < 33.8 degrees C, air velocity > 1.56 m/s, air cooling power > 248 W/m2, or psychrometric wet bulb globe temperature < 28.5 degrees C. CONCLUSION Heat exhaustion in underground miners is associated with dehydration, neutrophil leukocytosis, eosinopenia, metabolic acidosis, increased glucose and ferritin, and a mild rise in creatine kinase, aspartate transaminase, and lactate dehydrogenase. Heat cramps are associated with dehydration but not hyponatraemia. The incidence of heat exhaustion increases during summer and at depth. An increased fluid intake is required. Heat exhaustion would be unlikely to occur if ventilation and refrigeration achieved air cooling power > 250 W/m2 at all underground work sites.

Abstract
Maternal hyponatremia induces fetal hyponatremia and increased fetal urine flow. We sought to examine the relative contributions of the placental Na(+) gradient vs. the absolute decrease in fetal plasma Na(+) in the fetal diuretic response to hyponatremia. Seven ewes with singleton fetuses (130 +/- 2 days) were prepared. Ewes received intravenous 1-desamino-8-D-arginine vasopressin (20 microg) and warm tap water (2 liters). Maternal plasma Na(+) was decreased to achieve two levels of maternal hyponatremia. Maternal and fetal blood volume were measured with radiolabeled red blood cells. In response to the first decrease in maternal plasma Na(+), fetal plasma Na(+) did not change initially. Subsequently, fetal plasma Na(+) decreased, normalizing the gradient. The second decrease in maternal plasma Na(+) similarly induced a reduced and normalized placental gradient at lower fetal plasma Na(+) values. Fetal urine flow increased in direct proportion to the degree of fetal hyponatremia (13, 38, 63, 100%, respectively). Maternal, although not fetal, blood volume significantly increased in response to hyponatremia. These results suggest that chronic fetal hyponatremia will result in a persistent diuresis, despite placental equilibration.
