GASTROINTESTINAL LAVAGE REDUCES TOTAL BODY WATER
Australian and New Zealand Journal of Surgery, 1997Background: The aim of this study was to measure changes in total body water (TBW) in surgical patients after gastrointestinal lavage.Methods: In a prospective, controlled study we used bioelectrical impedance to calculate the change in TBW in two groups of general surgical patients in the pre‐operative period: the colonic lavage group consisted of ...

Total Body Water and Total Body Solids in Cattle Affected with Ostertagiasis
British Veterinary Journal, 1965SUMMARY Using tritiated water, measurements were made of total body water and total body solids in cattle with type I and cattle with type II ostertagiasis ‡ . The same measurements were carried out on uninfected control animals of appropriate age. When expressed as a percentage of body weight the body solids were unaltered in type I ostertagiasis ...

Total body water measurement in renal insufficiency
Pediatric Nephrology, 1996Total body water was measured in 15 children with renal insufficiency (glomerular filtration rate < 25 ml/min per 1.73 m2) using deuterium oxide dilution. Total body water was also measured using bioelectrical impedance and skinfold anthropometry in the same 15 children.

Changes in Total Body Water During Spaceflight
The Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 1991This experiment represents the first time that it has been possible to measure a body fluid compartment by direct means during spaceflight. Based on the results observed in the five crewmen in this study, it is concluded that TBW decreases by 3.4% after 1 to 3 days of exposure to microgravity in the Space Shuttle.

Total body water in farm animals
American Journal of Physiology-Legacy Content, 1964Dilution procedures with tritium and labeled and unlabeled pyrazolones were used to measure total body water in 89 swine, 99 cattle, and 170 sheep, grouped for convenience of presentation into two age-weight groups. Mean plasma disappearance rates for injected antipyrine were 45, 23, and 28%/hr, and loss of antipyrine reversibly bound to plasma ...

Klinische Wochenschrift, 1979
Extracellular water (EWC; 82-bromide), total body water (TBW; 3-THO), intracellular water (ICW = TBW-ECW), plasma volume (PV; 51-Cr), and total body potassium (TBK; 40-K) were studied in patients with cirrhosis of the liver (n = 12) and in controls (n = 12).

Body Weight, Total Body Water and Hematocrit in Diarrheic Piglets
Journal of Animal Science, 1986Piglets aged 12 to 72 h in which diarrhea had been induced by enteric Escherichia coli infection or sucrose gavage were studied with respect to body weight, total body water concentration (determined by tritiated-water dilution) and hematocrit. Sucrose-induced diarrhea reduced body weight by 13 to 17%, and E. coli diarrhea, by 8 to 9%.

In this chapter, the modifications that occur in water distribution from the fetus to the newborn, focusing on the neonatal period, are reviewed. This is a critical period in life as the newborn infant has to adapt itself to a new environment. The main water compartments, intra- and extracellular, undergo changes throughout infancy, with an increase in

Journal of Applied Physiology, 1995
We hypothesized that investigators could assess bone mineral content (BMC), total body mineral (M), and protein (P) from body water (W) and density (DB) based on the theory of W. E. Siri (Advances in Biological and Medical Physics, 1956, p. 239–280 and Techniques for Measuring Body Composition, 1961, p. 223–224) for body composition analysis.

Changes in total body water with age
The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1989Extensive cross-sectional studies demonstrate a diminution of total body water in elderly and very old subjects. These findings are supported by less extensive longitudinal studies. Cross-sectional studies indicate that the decrease in total body water is mainly due to decreased intracellular water, but this is not supported by the findings of ...
