Abstract
In a previous report, it has been shown that water deprivation significantly affects the two-bottle taste preferences and one-bottle taste acceptance in rats when no food was available during tests. Since no food was available, the course of drinking was never interrupted by eating. Theoretically, if a rat faces a simultaneous choice between food and fluid, and if the course of drinking is interrupted by eating, these conditions might interfere with taste preferences, total fluid intake and eating in thirsty rats. The aims of the present experiments were: to ascertain whether food intake during both two-bottle preference and one-bottle acceptance tests in thirsty rats might be influenced by the palatability of the solutions; to verify whether the availability of food during tests influences taste preference and acceptance, and total fluid intake; to detect variations induced by dehydration on body weight and some plasma and urinary parameters that might interfere with food and fluid intake, taste preference and acceptance. Using naive rats, five groups of rats showing the same taste preferences for one of four prototypical tastes and water were selected. Then, both two-bottle preference (Expt 1) and one-bottle acceptance tests (Expt 2) were performed in rats deprived of water for either 12, 24, 36 or 48 h. The results showed that in both Expt 1 and Expt 2, inhibition of feeding and decrease of body weight during dehydration was very similar in all rats. The presence of food during the tests did not affect taste preference and acceptance. During Expt 1, after severe water deprivation (36 and 48 h), food intake was related to the palatability of the solution paired with water. When rats drank either NaCl or sucrose, they ate less food than rats drinking HCl, quinine, or water. In Expt 2, rats drinking NaCl solution as the only source of fluid ate significantly less food than all other groups. The intake of sucrose and/or NaCl solutions be may explained by two different post-ingestion effects (energetic and osmotic). Since rats drinking either sucrose or NaCl ate less food but drank more fluid, they had a significantly higher fluid/food intake ratio than that of rats who drank water, quinine, or HCl, who ate more food but drank less fluid. The increase of the fluid/food intake ratio in rats drinking sucrose or NaCl was directly correlated with the length of dehydration. Self-denial of food during dehydration may be responsible for overeating and overdrinking during the recovery period after tests. After dehydration lasting for 24 and 48 h, plasma [Na(+)], [protein], osmolality and haematocrit values increased but [K(+)] decreased. Urinary volume decreased but urinary [Na(+)] increased. These results are related to food and fluid intake, taste preference and acceptance after dehydration periods. Experimental Physiology (2001) 86.4, 489-498.

Abstract
Improvements in characteristics of solutions used for oral rehydration therapy, to provide significant reductions in amount and duration of diarrhea, are expected to contribute to wider use of these fluids. Recent studies suggest that these may come about from reducing the osmolality of the solution, and by providing short chain fatty acids for better fluid absorption from the colon. This article briefly reviews the physiology of intestinal and colonic absorption in diarrhea, and indicates the further studies that are needed to translate the above advances into universal practice for the treatment of diarrhea.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study investigated whether hepatocyte Ca2+ dysregulation after hemorrhagic shock and resuscitation could be modulated by the iron chelator hydroxyethyl starch-conjugated deferoxamine (HES-DFO). METHODS In a randomized experimental study, anesthetized rats (n = 7) were bled for 60 minutes to maintain mean arterial blood pressure at 40 mm Hg. They were then resuscitated with 60% of shed blood and threefold the shed-blood volume as lactated Ringer's solution, 1 mL of pentastarch solution (hydroxyethyl starch 10%) per mL of shed blood, or 1 mL of HES-DFO solution (10%) per mL of shed blood. In isolated hepatocytes, the rate of Ca2+ influx (Ca2+ in), total Ca2+ uptake (Ca2+ up), and membrane Ca2+ flux (Ca2+ flux) were determined by 45Ca incubation. Reduced or oxidized glutathione and malondialdehyde concentrations were assessed fluorometrically. RESULTS Significant increases of hepatocellular Ca2+ in, Ca2+ up, and Ca2+ flux were observed in rats resuscitated with lactated Ringer's solution compared with control groups (p < 0.05). Although hydroxyethyl starch decreased Ca2+ in but not Ca2+ up, HES-DFO not only prevented the increase of Ca2+ in and Ca2+ up but also inhibited hepatocyte oxidative injury. CONCLUSION Iron-catalyzed oxyradical production and membrane peroxidation seem to alter hepatocyte Ca2+ homeostasis after hemorrhagic shock and resuscitation.

Abstract
The objective of the study was to test the tolerance of a rice-based oral rehydration formula when fed to calves. Six healthy Holstein calves, 1 week of age, were fed the formula instead of milk replacer for 3 days. Pre- and posttreatment results of clinical examination and laboratory parameters were compared. Vital signs, attitude, appetite, clinical hydration status, urine specific gravity, and most routine serum biochemistry test results did not vary and remained within the normal range. Five of the 6 calves developed diarrhea when fed the rice-based formula, which was accompanied by a reduction in fecal pH and presence of reducing sugars in the feces. This effect was reversed when calves were returned to the milk replacer diet at the end of the study. Diarrhea was accompanied by increased water consumption, which allowed the calves to maintain normal hydration status. These results suggest that calves are unable to properly digest the rice-derived carbohydrate, and this type of formula is not recommended for oral rehydration of calves.

Abstract
Amphibians absorb water osmotically across their skins and rely on chemosensory information from the skin to assess the suitability of hydration sources. The time spent with skin in contact with a moist surface provides a quantitative measure of their ability to perceive the ionic and osmotic properties of aqueous solutions. Dehydrated toads given hyperosmotic (250 mM) solutions of NaCl or Na-gluconate showed significantly longer periods of hydration behavior on the gluconate solution, but they lost water osmotically when immersed in either solution. Similarly, dehydrated toads given 250 mM solutions of NaCl, Na-acetate, Na-phosphate or Na-gluconate showed a progressively greater length of hydration time on solutions with the larger mol. wt anions. These results are consistent with the chemosensory phenomenon previously described in mammalian tongue as 'anion paradox'. On dilute (50 mM) solutions of NaCl or Na-gluconate, the hydration time was not different between anions, despite toads gaining water more rapidly when immersed in dilute NaCl than in Na-gluconate solutions. The differing behavioral results with hyperosmotic and hypoosmotic salt solutions suggest that chemosensory transduction through toad skin involves both transcellular and paracellular pathways.

Abstract
To investigate how the response to a bolus and an infusion of furosemide is modulated by the rate of fluid replacement and by hypoalbuminemia, rabbits received 5 mg/kg of furosemide as a bolus or infused over 60 min, whereas diuresis was replaced with 13, 121, or 238 ml/h NaCl 0.9%/glucose 5% (50:50). Natriuretic and diuretic efficiencies were greater with the infusion than with the bolus of furosemide. Fluid replacement increased natriuretic and diuretic efficiency of furosemide bolus but only diuretic efficiency of furosemide infusion. Furosemide net fluid depletion reached a plateau when fluid replacement increased beyond 121 ml/h. Repeated plasmapheresis decreased plasma albumin by 30% (P <.05) and increased furosemide unbound fraction (P <.05). Compared with control rabbits, hypoalbuminemia decreased the natriuresis of the bolus (22.7 +/- 1.5-16.6 +/- 1.3 mmol, P <.05) but not that elicited by furosemide infusion (26.2 +/- 1.8 mmol). Given as a bolus, furosemide natriuretic and diuretic response as a function of its urinary rate of excretion exhibited an hyperbolic relationship, and after its infusion a clockwise hysteresis, denoting tolerance. Plasma renin activity was increased by the bolus and the infusion of furosemide, even in the presence of 121 ml/h of fluid replacement. It is concluded that: 1) the increase in natriuretic/diuretic efficiency of the bolus induced by fluid replacement is greater than when furosemide is infused, 2) furosemide net effect does not increase proportionally to fluid replacement, and 3) the infusion of furosemide prevents the hypoalbuminemia-induced decrease in response of furosemide given as a bolus.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Resuscitation of large burn injuries must quickly restore and maintain cardiovascular function and fluid balance while minimizing secondary edema-related damage. We tested the hypothesis that two 4-mL x kg(-1) doses of hypertonic saline dextran (HSD; 7.5% NaCl/6% dextran-70) can produce prolonged reduction in fluid requirements after burn injury. DESIGN Prospective, pseudo randomized, double-blind study. SETTING Animal research laboratory. SUBJECTS Female adult Merino sheep (n = 12). INTERVENTIONS Sheep were given a 40% total body surface area full-thickness flame burn under halothane anesthesia. One hour after the burn, the conscious animals received an initial dose of 4 mL x kg(-1) HSD (n = 6) or normal saline (NS; NaCl 0.9%) (n = 6) intravenously during 30 mins. This was followed by lactated Ringer's solution, infused to a target urine output of 1 mL x kg(-1) x hr(-1) throughout the 24-hr study. A second 4-mL x kg(-1) dose of HSD or NS was started at 12 hrs, and infused during 5 hrs. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Hourly urine output measurements were used to guide the infusion rate of the lactated Ringer's. The initial infusion of HSD 1 hr after the burn injury promptly restored cardiac index, promoted diuresis, and reduced fluid requirements compared with the NS controls (73% reduction for HSD relative to NS at 8 hrs). Subsequent rebound fluid accumulation resulted in similar net fluid balances in both groups within 12 hrs after the burn. The second dose of HSD, given at 12 hrs, was without effect on hemodynamics and fluid balance. CONCLUSIONS We conclude a considerable initial, but not sustained fluid-sparing effect of early HSD, and no effect of a late, slowly infused HSD dose in this two-dose regimen.

Abstract
I.v. fluid selection depends on the estimated fluid loss, the primary fluid compartment involved, the patient's underlying problem and the physiological and haemodynamic impact of the i.v. solution. Clinically, the most important problem is intravascular fluid volume deficit, which is associated with hypotension, inadequate tissue oxygenation and hypoperfusion of essential organs. Intravascular volume resuscitation is therefore of primary importance. Crystalloid solutions have the disadvantage of only small amounts remaining in the IVS whereas colloids are known as plasma volume expanders due to predominantly remaining in the IVS in the presence of an intact capillary endothelium. Managing i.v. fluid administration requires close observation of the patient's subtle responses that may indicate states of fluid depletion or overload. Understanding the physiological principles of the body's fluid distribution in relation to the clinical assessment of the patient's hydration status, together with knowledge of the selected i.v. solution's properties, will enable the nurse to provide quality nursing care and improve patient outcomes.

Abstract
Dairy calves under 14 days of age with naturally occurring, uncomplicated diarrhea were treated for 3 days with a hypertonic oral electrolyte solution with (n = 15) or without (n = 12) psyllium. Clinical response and clinical pathology data were compared between the 2 groups. Glucose absorption was evaluated on days 1 and 3 by measurement of plasma glucose and lactate and serum insulin concentrations for 4 hours after formula administration. On day 1, glucose, lactate, and insulin concentrations were lower in psyllium-fed calves than in control calves, with significant differences noted in glucose and lactate concentrations at several time points (P < 0.05). Plasma lactate concentrations were higher at several times in both treatment groups on day 3 than on day 1 (P < 0.05). Fecal consistency was markedly different in psyllium-fed calves as compared with control calves within 24 hours of psyllium supplementation. Fecal percent dry matter content was lower in psyllium-fed calves than in control calves at least once a day during supplementation and on day 3 compared with day 0 in the psyllium-fed calves (P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in clinical performance scores, hydration status, arterial blood gas, serum anion gap, electrolyte, or total CO2 concentrations. Addition of psyllium to an oral electrolyte solution resulted in immediate alterations in glucose absorption without impairing rehydration in diarrheic calves, but differences were transient and did not affect clinical outcome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent animal experiments and clinical trials have shown that both osmolarity and rice as the organic components are important factors for net intestinal absorption of an oral rehydration salt solution. METHODS In a controlled clinical trial 123 male adult patients with severe cholera, after initial rehydration with intravenous Ringer's lactate solution, were randomly assigned to receive one of the four oral rehydration salt solutions: WHO ORS, ORS containing 70 mmol/l Na+ and 16.2 g/l glucose, rice ORS containing 50 g/l rice and 90 mmol/l Na+, and rice ORS containing 50 g/l rice and 70 mmol/l Na+. All patients received 300 mg of doxycycline as a single dose. RESULTS Patients who received rice-low-sodium ORS subsequently had lower (P < 0.05) stool output, ORS consumption, and diarrhoea duration than the other three ORS groups. CONCLUSIONS We conclude that rice-based low-sodium ORS is superior for treating adult cholera.

Abstract
Despite numerous studies on extravascular lung water (EVLW) in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery, few data are available on the perioperative time course of EVLW in patients undergoing mitral valve replacement for mitral valve insufficiency (MVI). We have investigated 26 patients undergoing elective mitral valve replacement in order to determine the influence of the preoperative degree of mitral valve insufficiency (degree III or IV) and the effect of different priming solutions for cardiopulmonary bypass. Crystalloid priming with Ringer's lactate was compared with human albumin priming solution. Measurement of EVLW was performed using the thermo-dye dilution technique, before and 1, 6 and 24 h after surgery. Before operation, EVLW is increased significantly in patients with MVI degree IV (MVI-degree IV) compared with patients with degree III (MVI-degree III) and patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery. During the postoperative time course a significant decrease in EVLW was observed in patients with MVI-degree IV whereas in patients with MVI-degree III the amount of EVLW did not change. However, compared with patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery, EVLW remained above normal in both groups. There was no interaction between the type of priming solution and the postoperative time course of EVLW, and no differences in respiratory variables or duration of mechanical ventilation were observed between groups.

Abstract
AIM To compare the effects of a standard oral rehydration solution with a polymeric glucose isotonic solution enriched with glutamine on water and sodium absorption in the short bowel. METHODS Six patients with high jejunostomy were tested in a random order on 2 consecutive days with the standard solution (20 g/L glucose, 94 mmol/L sodium, 292 mOsm/kg osmolality) and a solution containing maltodextrins (18 g/L Glucidex 12; hydrolysis of 18 g of Glucidex 12 yields 20 g glucose) enriched with 14.6 g/L of glutamine (94 mmol/L sodium, 282 mOsm/kg osmolality). Solutions were administered via a naso-gastric tube at a rate of 2 mL/min. Jejunal effluent for each solution was collected during an 8-h period, after a 14-h equilibrium period. RESULTS The net 8-h fluid absorption was not significantly different between the standard solution and the solution with glutamine (333 +/- 195 and 213 +/- 251 mL, respectively (mean +/- S.E.M.)). Net sodium absorption was higher for the standard solution than for the solution with glutamine (15 +/- 15 vs. 2 +/- 20 mmol, P < 0.05). The rate of glucose absorption was not different between the solutions. CONCLUSION The replacement of glucose by maltodextrins and the addition of glutamine to the standard oral rehydration solution, without changing its sodium content or osmolality, results in a reduction of sodium absorption in the short-bowel syndrome.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the effect of IV administered hypertonic saline solution (HSS) on transruminal rehydration in clinically normal dairy cows. ANIMALS 10 Holstein cows. PROCEDURE Cows in a 2-way randomized cross-over design study were given nothing per os for 36 hours, then were randomly assigned to receive either an oral water load (OWL; 40 ml/kg of body weight) by ruminal gavage or HSS IV (5 ml/kg of body weight) plus OWL; 10 days later, each cow received the other treatment. Outcome measures included serum and urine osmolality, electrolyte (Ca, P, Na, K, and Cl), creatinine, blood glucose, hemoglobin (Hgb), and plasma total protein (PTP) concentrations; serum colloid osmotic pressure (SCOP); urine volume; PCV; and blood gas analytes (pH, P(CO2), P(O2), HCO3-, base excess [BE], and O2 saturation). RESULTS IV administered HSS plus OWL caused Hgb, PCV, PTP, SCOP, blood pH, BE, HCO3-, and urine osmolality values to decrease and fractional excretion (FE) of electrolytes, serum osmolality, and urine volume to increase. Blood glucose concentration was different between treatments at 0 and 150 minutes, and FEK, FECl, and FECa were similar by 180 minutes after OWL alone, but absolute excretion of Na and P and FENa and FE(P) remained high after HSS administration. Oral water load caused Hgb, PCV, PTP, serum electrolyte and creatinine, SCOP, and urine osmolality values to remain unchanged or decrease slowly and pH, BE, HCO3-, FECa values to increase slightly by 180 minutes. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE IV administration of HSS plus OWL, unlike OWL alone, increases circulatory volume rapidly, induces slight metabolic acidosis, increases renal perfusion and glomerular filtration rate, and effects changes in serum Ca and P homeostasis that may be useful in treating sick dairy cows.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the changes in hematocrit (Hct) between phlebotomized and nonphlebotomized individuals given IV crystalloid. METHODS A prospective, crossover volunteer study was performed comparing Hct changes immediately and 30 minutes after IV crystalloid bolus in 20 healthy adults with and without prebolus phlebotomy. In the control portion, volunteers were given a 15-mL/kg bolus of normal saline over 30 minutes with Hct determination before (H1), immediately after (H2), and 30 minutes after (H3) crystalloid infusion. At least 7 days later, the same subjects were phlebotomized 1 unit of blood and then administered a 15-mL/kg IV bolus of normal saline 30 minutes later. Hcts were obtained before (H4) and 30 minutes after (H5) phlebotomy (immediately prior to crystalloid infusion). Hcts were also obtained immediately after (H6) and 30 minutes after (H7) crystalloid infusion. A post-hoc test performance analysis was then performed to determine the Hct drop thresholds that would yield the maximal sensitivity and specificity for 500 mL of blood loss (via phlebotomy) in this population. RESULTS The Hct (%) drops in the nonphlebotomized individuals receiving IV fluids averaged 4.5 +/- 1.3 immediately and 3.2 +/- 1.3 30 minutes after infusion. These drops were different (p < 0.05) from the Hct drop in individuals receiving IV fluids after phlebotomy, which averaged 6.6 +/- 1.5 and 5.7 +/- 1.1, respectively. Post-hoc analysis revealed that Hct drops of 5.4 immediately, or 4.3 at 30 minutes after infusion, had a sensitivity of > 90% and a specificity of 75% for identification of patients in the phlebotomy group. CONCLUSIONS The practice of measuring serial Hcts may be helpful to identify trauma patients with occult blood loss. A prospective clinical trial is needed to validate these Hct drop thresholds (immediate and 30 minutes postinfusion) in crystalloid-resuscitated trauma patients.

Abstract
Various vasoactive substances are involved in the regulation of the macro- and microcirculation. We have investigated if these regulators change during long-term volume therapy with human albumin (HA) or hydroxyethylstarch solution (HES) in trauma and sepsis patients. To maintain pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) at 10-15 mm Hg, either 20% HA (HA-trauma, n = 14; HA-sepsis, n = 14) or 10% low-molecular weight HES solution (HES-trauma, n = 14; HES-sepsis, n = 14) were infused for 5 days, otherwise patient management did not differ between the two groups (trauma/sepsis). Mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), PCWP and cardiac index (CI) were monitored in all patients. Liver function was assessed using the monoethylglycinexylidide (MEGX) test, and gastric intramucosal pH (pHi) was monitored by tonometry to assess splanchnic perfusion. Plasma concentrations of vasopressin, endothelin-1, adrenaline, noradrenaline, atrial natriuretic peptide and 6-keto-prostaglandin F1 alpha were measured from arterial blood samples. All measurements were carried out on the day of admission to the intensive care unit (trauma patients) or on diagnosis of sepsis, and daily over the next 5 days at 12:00. MAP, HR and PCWP did not differ between the corresponding subgroups (trauma/sepsis). Cl increased significantly more in the HES than in the HA groups. pHi and MEGX plasma concentrations did not differ in the trauma patients throughout the study. Both were lower than normal in the sepsis groups and increased more markedly in the HES than in the albumin-treated patients (P < 0.05). In the trauma patients, concentrations of all vasoactive regulators were very similar in both groups. In both sepsis groups, vasopressors (vasopressin, endothelin-1, noradrenaline and adrenaline) were significantly increased above normal at baseline and decreased more markedly in HES than in HA patients. Concentrations of atrial natriuretic peptide increased only in the HA patients (from 159 (SD 31) to 215 (38) pg ml-1 on day 2). Plasma concentrations of 6-keto-prostaglandin F1 alpha decreased significantly only in the HES sepsis patients (from 112 (25) to 47 (15) pg ml-1).

Abstract
The influence of rehydration on elasticity modulus and strength of lyophilized and irradiated cortical bone of human femur was studied by means of balance rheometer. The measurements were taken in 20(C and at sample deformation frequency of 12.5 Hz. The bone samples were taken from 40 individuals aged 35-45 who died suddenly. It was found, that after 24 hours rehydration the elasticity modulus of lyophilized and irradiated cortical bone decreased about 11% and strength increased about 18%. The greatest changes of elasticity modulus were observed during first 10 hours of rehydration. Strong negative correlation (r = -0.8, p < 0.001) between changes of elasticity modulus and degree of the bone rehydration was confirmed.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to examine the effects of ingesting a carbohydrate-electrolyte solution on endurance capacity during a prolonged intermittent, high-intensity shuttle running test (PIHSRT). Nine trained male games players performed two exercise trials, 7 days apart. On each occasion, they completed 75 min exercise, comprising of five 15-min periods of intermittent running, consisting of sprinting, interspersed with periods of jogging and walking (Part A), followed by intermittent running to fatigue (Part B). The subjects were randomly allocated either a 6.9% carbohydrate-electrolyte solution (CHO) or a non-carbohydrate placebo (CON) immediately prior to exercise (5 ml kg-1 body mass) and every 15 min thereafter (2 ml kg-1 body mass). Venous blood samples were obtained at rest, during and after each PIHSRT for the determination of glucose, lactate, plasma free fatty acid, glycerol, ammonia, and serum insulin and electrolyte concentrations. During Part B, the subjects were able to continue running longer when fed CHO (CHO = 8.9 +/- 1.5 min vs CON = 6.7 +/- 1.0 min; P < 0.05) (mean +/- S.E.M.). These results show that drinking a carbohydrate-electrolyte solution improves endurance running capacity during prolonged intermittent exercise.

Abstract
Movement of water between the brain and the intravascular space is dependent on osmotic gradients, which may be established by the acute administration of either hyper- or hypo-osmolar solutions. Mannitol, a hypertonic crystalloid solution, is commonly used to decrease brain water content and reduce intracranial pressure (ICP). Hypertonic saline solutions also decrease brain water and ICP while temporarily increasing systolic blood pressure and cardiac output. Hypo-osmolar solutions, such as 5% dextrose in water, reduce serum sodium and increase brain water and ICP. Colloid solutions exert little influence on either variable. Fluid restriction minimally affects cerebral edema and, if pursued to excess, may result in episodes of hypotension, which may increase ICP and are associated with worse neurologic outcome. Although there is no single best fluid for patients with traumatic brain injury, isotonic crystalloids are widely used and can be justified on a scientific basis.

Abstract
Rates of stool output are reduced when cooked rice is incorporated into oral rehydration solutions. We found that a fraction extracted from rice inhibited the response of intestinal epithelial crypt cells to adenosine 3'5'-cyclic monophosphate, a major intracellular mediator of secretion. This response to rice was seen as an inhibition of cell shrinkage and of chloride efflux in fresh suspended guinea pig crypt cells. The active fraction was of low molecular weight (< 1.5 kDa), hydrophobic, and not a peptide or glycoprotein. It may be chloride-channel blocker.

Abstract
Newborn piglets (aged 1 to 2 days and 7 to 14 days) were used to study (1) the redistribution of organ blood flow after a 25% acute blood loss and (2) the response to resuscitation with shed blood (20 mL/kg), crystalloid (normal saline [NS] or lactated Ringer's [LR]; 60 mL/kg), and colloid (Dextran-40, 20 mL/kg). Hemodynamic parameters showed little differences in the response to hemorrhage and resuscitation. The two age groups had no significant differences in parameters or blood flow (results combined). The animals maintained flow to the heart and central nervous system (CNS) and had significantly decreased flow to the kidneys and splanchnic organs. In the gastrointestinal tract, the small intestine was affected most severely, with a significant decrease in blood flow, especially to the mucosa. In all organ systems, Dextran 40 restored blood flow to levels significantly above the baseline. Shed blood and crystalloid restored flow to organs sustaining decreased flow, but crystalloid did not restore flow to the baseline level in the kidney and all segments of the gastrointestinal tract.

Abstract
We compared the effects of similarly tasting orange flavored drinks containing 0% (P), 6.4% (E1), and 10% (E2) carbohydrate (CHO) using 12 well-trained cyclists (VO2max = 5.0 l/min-1) on metabolic responses to exercise (EX) and a sprint type performance ride (PR). Each subject completed 3 separate 2 h EX bouts at 65% VO2max followed by a PR identified as the time in sec to complete 500 revolutions at a constant belt resistance of 29.4 N (ANOVA*). The CHO feedings or placebo of 3 ml/kg body weight were given double blind and counter-balanced at 0 min and every 20 min thereafter during EX. Blood samples were drawn and core temperature (Tr) was recorded at 0, 30, 60, 90, and 120 min of EX and 1 min post PR. Blood samples were analyzed for glucose (G) and lactate [LA-]. Blood G at 0 min were similar; however, at 120 min, G was 3.96 mM for P*, 4.57 mM for E1, and 4.77 mM for E2. Blood [LA-] remained similar throughout EX averaging (P, 2.6 mM; E1, 2.9 mM; E2, 2.5 mM). Tr at 120 min was also similar (P, 38.5 degrees C; E1, 38.6 degrees C; E2, 38.3 degrees C). Mean PR times for P(264.4 s)**, E1 (255.3 s)*, E2 (252.4 s)* indicate consumption of a CHO drink during EX improves PR. Furthermore, a 10% CHO drink improves PR more than a 6.4% CHO drink.

Abstract
Throughout the world diarrheal diseases kill over 5 million children annually. Oral rehydration therapy, initially using glucose-based solutions and more recently cereal-based solutions, prevents complications and death from dehydration. These experiments compared the effect of these two rehydration solutions and a mixed meal on jejunal water and ionic transport. Five dogs had 25-cm proximal jejunal Thiry-Vella fistulae constructed. Following recovery, jejunal absorption studies (N = 40) were performed using an isotonic electrolyte solution containing [14C]PEG to calculate net fluxes of water, sodium, and chloride. Each study consisted of a 1-hr basal period, followed by a 3-hr experimental period. Each animal was randomly studied in each of four study groups: control, mixed meal, glucose-based and cereal-based rehydration solution. In the mixed meal, glucose-based, and cereal-based solution groups there were significant increases (P < 0.0001) in jejunal Thiry-Vella fistula water and ion absorption following the stimuli, in the absence of direct luminal nutrient contact with the Thiry-Vella fistula. There were no differences between the observed responses to the glucose-based or cereal-based rehydration solutions. Glucose-based and cereal-based rehydration solutions were equally effective in stimulating jejunal absorption of water and electrolytes, but less effective than a mixed meal. Both food and oral rehydration solutions appear to increase jejunal absorption partially via a neurohumoral mechanism that is independent of luminal nutrient contact with the Thiry-Vella fistula.

Abstract
The effect of glucose-polymer solution on physical performance has been extensively studied under controlled laboratory conditions. The present study was conducted to investigate the influence of such beverages on fluid balance and on glycemic state during a moderate, prolonged field exercise. Forty-eight endurance trained, male subjects participated in the study. The maneuver consisted of a 4-d march; 29, 39, 36, 30 km.d-1, at a speed of 5-6 km.h-1. The subjects covered a total distance of 134 km at an estimated exercise intensity of approximately 40% VO2max, under hot climate conditions (ambient temperature, 32-41 degrees C; relative humidity, 60-14%). Subjects were randomly assigned to one of two groups: glucose polymer-electrolyte beverage (GP; N = 24) and tap water (TW; N = 24). Each group was then divided into two subgroups consuming fluid ad libitum (TWa, GPa) or instructed to consume 900 ml.h-1 (TWb, GPb). The mean daily fluid consumption of all subgroups was similar (5252 +/- 229 and 4640 +/- 67 ml in TWa and TWb; 5257 +/- 317 and 5253 +/- 216 ml in GPa and GPb, respectively). Weight loss, reflecting the degree of dehydration, was 1.2 +/- 0.1% and 1.9 +/- 0.3% of initial body weight in TW and GP, respectively. On day 1, plasma volume changed by +0.4% and -1.8% in the TW and GP groups, respectively. On the days 2-4 changes in both groups were similar.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
V. cholerae OGAWA 154 cells underwent rapid loss of colony forming capacity during the first few minutes' incubation in the Electral medium at 37 degrees C, the turbidity of the suspension however increasing with time of incubation and leading to a plateau from 5 min onward. The vibrio suspension in the Electral medium released small amounts of 280 nm and much higher amounts of 260 nm absorbing materials. On withdrawal of the Electral medium, the cells underwent significant liquid holding recovery in the phosphate buffered saline, pH 7. Majority of the cells underwent no significant ultrastructural change but grew into long filamentous forms. The mode of action of the Electral medium on the vibrios is discussed.
