Effect of water restriction on drinking behaviour and water intake in German black-head mutton sheep and Boer goats

Animal, 2012
The present study was conducted to evaluate and compare the physiological responses of sheep and goats to water restriction using the deuterium dilution technique (D2O) to predict the total water intake (TWI) in both species.

Patient‐specific pharmacogenomics demonstrates xCT as predictive therapeutic target in colon cancer with possible implications in tumor connectivity

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study integrates transcriptomic profiling of matched tumor and healthy tissues from 32 colorectal cancer patients with functional validation in patient‐derived organoids, revealing dysregulated metabolic programs driven by overexpressed xCT (SLC7A11) and SLC3A2, identifying an oncogenic cystine/glutamate transporter signature linked to ...

Comparison of the Watson formula and bioimpedance spectroscopy for measuring body volume and calculating kt/V in patients with peritoneal dialysis

Renal Failure
Background Ascertaining the total body water (V), usually obtained by the Watson formula or bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS), is crucial for the calculation of Kt/V in patients with peritoneal dialysis (PD).

Deuterium oxide dilution accurately predicts water intake in sheep and goats

Animal, 2010
The aim of this study was to test whether the deuterium oxide dilution technique accurately predicts water intake in sheep and goats. Two other issues were also studied: (i) a comparison of water intake in sheep and goats and (ii) an assessment of ...

In vivo total body water assessment by total body electrical conductivity in rats suffering perturbations of water compartment equilibrium [PDF]

British Journal of Nutrition, 1993
Total body electrical conductivity (TOBEC) is a simple and non-invasive method for the assessment of body composition in vivo. Information regarding the applicability of TOBEC in the condition of abnormal fluid balance is scarce. In the present paper we give the results of the comparison between TOBEC and total body water (TBW; assessed by the tritium ...

Aggressive prostate cancer is associated with pericyte dysfunction

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Tumor‐produced TGF‐β drives pericyte dysfunction in prostate cancer. This dysfunction is characterized by downregulation of some canonical pericyte markers (i.e., DES, CSPG4, and ACTA2) while maintaining the expression of others (i.e., PDGFRB, NOTCH3, and RGS5).

Validity of Body Composition Estimates in Women Assessed by a Multifrequency Bioelectrical Impedance Device

Sensors
Background: Multifrequency bioelectrical impedance devices such as the InBody 770 (IB770) offer faster measurements and lower costs compared with other body composition assessments.

Association of extracellular water/total body water ratio with protein-energy wasting and mortality in patients on hemodialysis

Scientific Reports, 2023
Bioimpedance analysis-assessed extracellular water/total body water (ECW/TBW) ratio may be a marker for mortality and poor nutritional status in hemodialysis patients.

Changes in total body water in infants receiving total intravenous nutrition [PDF]

Journal of Surgical Research, 1979
Using deuterium oxide dilution technique, the total body water changes of five infants maintained on total parenteral nutrition have been determined. While average weight gains of from 14 to 53 g/day were documented, there were decreases in percentage total body water from 13 to 50%.
