To evaluate the role of fluid and Na + balance in development exercise-associated hyponatremia (EAH), changes serum concentrations ([Na ]) body weight were analyzed 2,135 athletes endurance events. Eighty-nine percent completed these events either euhydrated (39%) or with loss (50%) normal (80%) elevated (13%) [Na ]. Of 231 (11%) who gained during exercise, 70% normonatremic hypernatremic, 19% had a ] between 129-135 mmol/liter, 11% <129 mmol/liter. Serum after racing was linear function...
INTRODUCTION The Second International Exercise-Associated Hyponatremia (EAH) Consensus Development Conference convened in Queenstown, New Zealand (November 2007) with a panel of eighteen international experts. This conference utilized the United States National Institute Health (NIH) protocol and was deliberately free from commercial sponsorship. delegates represented seven countries eight medical scientific sub-specialties pertaining to exercise physiology, sports medicine, water...
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is primarily a respiratory that has become global pandemic. Close contact plays an important role in infection spread, while fomite may also be possible transmission route. Research during the COVID-19 pandemic identified long-range airborne as one of routes although lack solid evidence.
Carbon dioxide (CO2 ) metabolically produced by humans has been widely used as a tracer gas for determining ventilation rates in occupied rooms. Among other necessities, the method requires good estimates of human CO2 generation rates. An empirically derived equation is to calculate rate. However, there are indications that this not valid young Chinese people. In study, we measured rate 44 people at two typical activity levels, quiet sitting and relaxed standing. We found commonly empirical...
Objective: To determine if food and fluid intake is related to completion of a 161-km ultramarathon.Methods: Sixteen consenting runners in the Western States Endurance Run participated study. Race diets were analyzed using Nutritionist Pro software. Both total by race segment (3 total) evaluated.Results: Six 16 subjects completed (finishers) 27.0 ± 2.3 hours (mean SD). Non-finishers 96.5 20.5 km 17.0 3.9 h. Overall consumption rates kilocalories, carbohydrate, fat, sodium significantly...
Purpose: To determine the incidence of exercise-associated hyponatremia (EAH), associated biochemical measurements and risk factors for EAH, whether there is an association between postrace blood sodium concentration ([Na + ]) changes in body mass among participants 2009 Western States Endurance Run, a 161-km mountain trail run. Methods: Change mass, [Na ], creatine phosphokinase (CPK) concentration, selected runner characteristics were evaluated consenting competitors. Results: Of 47 study...
This study investigates the contribution of formaldehyde from residential building materials to ambient air in mainland China. Based on 265 indoor field tests 9 provinces, we estimate that sources are responsible for 6.66% total anthropogenic China's (range 31 provinces: 1.88-18.79%). Residential rank 6th among 81 (range: 2nd-10th provinces). Emission intensities show large spatial variability between and within regions due different densities, emission characteristics materials, thermal...
