Seasonal changes in hydration in free-living Japanese children and adolescents.
Appl Physiol Nutr Metab
October 2024
Article Synopsis
- Changes in hydration status among Japanese children were studied by measuring urine osmolality (Uosm) upon waking and during school in spring and summer, revealing higher Uosm in spring.
- A significant percentage of children were found to be underhydrated, with more underhydration observed during the school day, particularly in spring.
- Self-assessed urine color (UC) did not effectively reflect seasonal hydration changes, indicating limited usefulness for children to manage their hydration status.
Influence of Heat Exposure on Motor Control Performance and Learning as Well as Physiological Responses to Visuomotor Accuracy Tracking Task.

Article Synopsis
- * Participants displayed poorer tracking performance in the hot environment, with increased skin temperature but only slight core body temperature changes.
- * While cardiovascular responses like mean arterial blood pressure and heart rate were more affected in heat, these effects did not persist beyond the initial learning phase of the task.
Purpose: Isomaltulose is a low glycemic and insulinaemic carbohydrate increasingly used as an alternative sweetener in commercial beverages. While isomaltulose beverages can improve hydration status compared to sucrose-based beverages, it remains unclear if ingestion of an isomaltulose beverage prior to exercise in the heat may improve plasma volume (PV) and thermoregulatory responses.
Methods: Twelve endurance-trained men consumed a 1L carbohydrate beverage containing either 6.
Isomaltulose is a low glycemic and insulinaemic carbohydrate now used as an alternative sweetener in beverages. However, it remains unclear if hydration status may be impacted differently with the consumption of beverages containing isomaltulose as compared to sucrose, a common beverage sweetener. Thirteen young adults (7 women) consumed 1 L of a carbohydrate beverage (with low electrolyte content) containing either 6.
