Excessive fluid loss triggered by hyperbaric pressure, water immersion and hot water suits causes saturation divers to be at risk of dehydration. Dehydration is associated with reductions in mental and physical performance, resulting in less effective ...

Seasonal changes in total body water; body composition and water turnover in reindeer
Total body water and water turnover were measured at different times throughout the year in 3 captive Norwegian reindeer, using a tritiated water dilution method (Holleman et al. 1982).

Mastalgia and total body water. [PDF]
Total body water (TBW) was measured early and late in a menstrual cycle in 56 women, 39 of whom had breast pain. The remainder were asymphtomatic controls. Most women did not conform to the traditional view that there is a premenstrual increase in TBW. In some TBW decreased, while in others there was no change from the early cycle measurement.

Obesity and hypervolemic status are mainly one of causes of hypertension in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. However, it is difficult to assess these factors because changes in body weight (BW) in CKD patients are affected not only by muscle and ...

Background: Bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) is a non-invasive method used to measure fluid volumes. In this report, we compare BIS measurements from patients with heart failure (HF) to those from healthy adults, and describe how these point-of-care fluid

Body composition is prognostic and predictive of ipilimumab activity in metastatic melanoma
Background Body composition is minimally investigated in an immunotherapy era. Specific body composition signals such as myosteatosis may reflect aspects of patients' immunology and thereby their ability to respond to immunotherapies. Ipilimumab is a key

Extracellular water/total body water ratio as predictor of mortality in hemodialysis patients
Background Overhydration is a predictor of mortality in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) is used to determine the body composition.

Background: Malnutrition can have reversible effects on patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Patients with CKD are exposed to a wasting syndrome, because of disorders of nutrient absorption, excretion, and other factors.
