Introduction: Depending on type, intensity and duration, exercise can have both beneficial and detrimental effects on cognitive function. The impact of exercise on learning and memory is also sensitive to hydration status, so we hypothesized that mild hypohydration induced with exercise, will adversely impact executive and complex memory function tasks and that these changes in cognitive function are independent of changes in emotion.
Methods: Using a cross over design, on separate days 11 women exercised on a recumbent bicycle. On day 1, women exercised to 1.5% hypohydration at 34°C, and <10% rh, on day 2, water loss from sweating was replaced by drinking water (euhydration). Pre- and post-euhydration and hypohydration, subjects underwent computer based cognitive tasks (simple, learning, memory, executive function) and visual analog testing to determine emotion.
Results: Exercise increased Groton Maze Learning Test errors within both conditions: [Pre: 41.5±11.8, Post: 46.8±12.4, and Pre: 41.9±9.2, Post: 46.5±12.9, hypohydrated and euhydrated, respectively, Pre vs Post, ANOVA, time effect, P=0.007], a test of acquisition, storage, and use of new knowledge. None of the measures of emotion were affected by exercise under either hydration condition.
Conclusions: A bout of mild aerobic exercise compromised performance on a complex learning and memory task, but this change was unaffected by hydration status or emotion.

Objective: Wrestling is a complex sport that requires a combination of strength, endurance, and wrestling-specific technical training. Endurance activities, such as running, are commonly performed for rapid weight reduction before competition. However, these activities can severely disrupt recovery and lead to significant declines in performance.

Maintaining proper hydration is crucial for human health, physiological functions, and cognitive performance. This study sought to determine the hydration status and the microbial safety of tap water in an urban setting (Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology Campus) and a rural community (Adjamesu) in the Ashanti Region of Ghana. The water safety perception and hydration status of 171 study participants aged 10-61 years were assessed.

Objective: Impaired right ventricular (RV)-pulmonary arterial (PA) coupling, calculated by measuring the tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) to pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP), can be used as an early indicator of right ventricular dysfunction (RVD) in patients with heart failure with a reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Patients suffering from HFrEF experience improvements in left ventricular (LV) function through the administration of sacubitril/valsartan therapy. In addition, the albumin-bilirubin (ALBI) score was associated with the fluid overload status and adverse clinical outcomes in patients with heart failure.

The aim was to estimate the prevalence of low muscle mass (LMM) and low muscle mass associated with obesity (LMM-O) in healthy adult, and to verify the performance of raw bioelectrical impedance parameters (BIA) and vector analysis (BIVA) in the screening of this tow conditions. This is a cross-sectional study including 1025 healthy adults. Body composition was assessed by the BIA technique.

Perioperative fluid therapy is a pivotal component of surgical patient management, as appropriate fluid administration can significantly enhance postoperative recovery. To standardize perioperative fluid therapy for adult patients in China, the Geriatric Anesthesia and Perioperative Management Group of the Chinese Society of Anesthesiology has developed the "Clinical Practice Guidelines for Perioperative Fluid Therapy in Chinese Adult Patients". Based on current clinical status in China, this guideline addressed 11 key areas based on clinical evidence, more than 30% of which is from China researchers, including principles for the selection of common fluid types, preoperative fasting and hydration following enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols, intraoperative fluid requirements for adult patients, perioperative volume assessment, perioperative evaluation of volume overload/insufficiency, goal-directed fluid therapy, restrictive fluid therapy, perioperative fluid therapy strategies for high-risk patients, fluid resuscitation for massive blood loss, the relationship between perioperative fluid therapy and postoperative complications, and the relationship between perioperative fluid therapy and ERAS.
