Based on part of university staff in Zhejiang province, assayed and studied by INBODY 3.0 body composition analytical instrument, the study finds out that teachers’ overweight rate and obesity rate increase gradually with aging increasing, as well as exist gender differences. In general, female teachers’ incidence is higher than male teachers’ on central obesity and excessiveness obesity. The rate of intracellular fluid and extracellular fluid of teachers belong to different age phase corresponds with human basic requirement, and they have quite differences in intracellular fluid and extracellular fluid, protein, mineral salt and body fat (P<0.01), and there are insignificant differences (P<0.01) among the teachers who have higher moisture content in right-handed upper limb than left-handed, male teachers’ moisture distribute balanced in right-handed and left-handed lower limb, which is quite different from this value in female group.

Nutritional Risk Index

The ratio of extracellular fluid (ECF) to intracellular fluid (ICF) may be associated with mortality in patients undergoing hemodialysis, possibly associated with protein-energy wasting. We therefore investigated the relationship of the ECF/ICF ratio and the geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) with the all-cause and cardiovascular-specific mortality in 234 patients undergoing hemodialysis. Bioimpedance analysis of the ECF and ICF was performed and the ECF/ICF ratio was independently associated with GNRI (β = −0.247, p < 0.0001). During a median follow-up of 2.8 years, 72 patients died, of which 29 were cardiovascular. All-cause mortality was independently associated with a lower GNRI (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] 3.48, 95% confidence interval [CI] 2.01–6.25) and a higher ECF/ICF ratio (aHR 11.38, 95%CI 5.29–27.89). Next, we divided patients into four groups: group 1 (G1), higher GNRI and lower ECF/ICF ratio; G2, lower GNRI and lower ECF/ICF ratio; G3, higher GNRI and higher ECF/ICF ratio; and G4, lower GNRI and higher ECF/ICF ratio. Analysis of these groups revealed 10-year survival rates of 91.2%, 67.2%, 0%, and 0% in G1, G2, G3, and G4, respectively. The aHR for G4 versus G1 was 43.4 (95%CI 12.2–279.8). Adding the GNRI alone, the ECF/ICF ratio alone, or both to the established risk model improved the net reclassification improvement by 0.444, 0.793 and 0.920, respectively. Similar results were obtained for cardiovascular mortality. In conclusion, the ECF/ICF ratio was independently associated with GNRI and could predict mortality in patients undergoing hemodialysis. Combining the GNRI and ECF/ICF ratio could improve mortality predictions.

Rate Of Oxygen Consumption

Oxygen consumption of 92 normally grown newborn babies of birth weight 750 to 3,940 gm has been expressed in terms of various metabolic reference standards in order to identify any systematic variation in expression of metabolic rate that is introduced by these bases of reference in the newborn population. It is postulated that differences in body composition comprise a contributory factor to the variation among newborn babies in rate of oxygen consumption per kilogram body weight. The predictive error from a mean value is increased if surface area, body weight, or fat-free body weight is substituted for body weight as a metabolic reference standard. By taking into account known changes in body composition of the fetus with increasing maturity, a compartment representing the active tissue mass is calculated. This corresponds closely to body weight minus extracellular fluid and includes fat. Rate of oxygen consumption is proportional to the size of this compartment over the range of body weights studied. Implications are discussed as to the metabolic rate of adipose tissue in the newborn and body composition among undergrown babies.

The interrelations of body size, body composition and basal metabolism were studied in 69 albino rats ranging in age from 18–174 days. The decline in metabolic rate with age was more rapid than would be predicted from the weight0.75 rule which eliminates the influence of body size in interspecific measurements. Body composition analyses indicated that the increase with age in metabolically inert fat and bone minerals was approximately balanced by a corresponding decrease in metabolically inert extracellular fluid, so that ‘active tissue mass’ was virtually unchanged. Calculations based on data in the literature indicate that about one-half the decline in metabolic rate with age may be due to the corresponding decrease in the relative weight of the viscera. The remainder of the decline in metabolic rate must be due to factors other than changes in the chemical or histological composition of the body.

AbstractThe purpose of the present study was to determine the time course and magnitude of changes in extracellular and intracellular fluid volumes in relation to changes in total body water during prolonged submaximal exercise and recovery in horses. Seven horses were physically conditioned over a 2-month period and trained to trot on a treadmill. Total body water (TBW), extracellular fluid volume (ECFV) and plasma volume (PV) were measured at rest using indicator dilution techniques (D2O, thiocyanate and Evans Blue, respectively). Changes in TBW were assessed from measures of body mass, and changes in PV and ECFV were calculated from changes in plasma protein concentration. Horses exercised by trotting on a treadmill for 75–120 min incurred a 4.2% decrease in TBW. During exercise, the entire decrease in TBW (mean±standard error: 12.8±2.0 l at end of exercise) could be attributed to the decrease in ECFV (12.0±2.4 l at end of exercise), such that there was no change in intracellular fluid volume (ICFV; 0.9±2.4 l at end of exercise). PV decreased from 22.0±0.5 l at rest to 19.8±0.3 l at end of exercise and remained depressed (18–19 l) during the first 2 h of recovery. Recovery of fluid volumes after exercise was slow, and characterized by a further transient loss of ECFV (first 30 min of recovery) and a sustained increase in ICFV (between 0.5 and 3.5 h of recovery). Recovery of fluid volumes was complete by 13 h post exercise. It is concluded that prolonged submaximal exercise in horses favours net loss of fluid from the extracellular fluid compartment.

AbstractThe present study characterized the fluid and electrolyte shifts that occur in Standardbred racehorses during recovery from high-intensity exercise. Jugular venous blood was sampled from 13 Standardbreds in racing condition, at rest and for 2 h following a high-intensity training workout. Total body water (TBW), extracellular fluid volume (ECFV) and plasma volume (PV) were measured at rest using indicator dilution techniques (D2O, thiocyanate and Evans Blue, respectively). Changes in TBW were assessed from measures of body mass, and changes in PV and ECFV were calculated from changes in plasma protein concentration. Exercise resulted in a 26.9% decrease in PV. At 10 min of recovery TBW and ECFV were decreased by 2.2% and 16.5% respectively, while intracellular fluid volume was increased by 7.1%. There was a continued loss of fluid due to sweating throughout the recovery period such that TBW was decreased by 3.9% at 90 min of recovery. This decrease in TBW was nearly equally partitioned between the extracellular and intracellular fluid compartments. Plasma Na+ and Cl− contents were decreased at 1 min of recovery, but not different from rest by 40 min of recovery. Plasma K+ content at 1 min post exercise was not different from the pre-exercise value; however, by 5 min of recovery K+ content was significantly decreased and it remained decreased throughout the recovery period. It is concluded that there are very rapid and large fluid and electrolyte shifts between body compartments during and after high-intensity exercise, and that full recovery of these shifts requires 90–120 min.

Activities (a) of intracellular K and Na in rabbit ventricular papillary muslces were determined with cation-selectivve glass microelectrodes and concentrations (C) were estimated with flame photometry. The CK and aK of the muscles were 134.9 +/- 3.1 mM (mean value +/- SE) and 82.6 mM, respectively, at 25 degrees C. The corresponding CNa and aNa were 32.7 +/- 2.7 and 5.7, respectively. The apparent intracellular activity coefficients for K (gammaK) and Na (gammaNa) were 0.612 and 0.175, respectively. Similar results were obtained at 35 +/- 1 degree C. gammaK was substantially lower than the activity coefficient (0.745) of extracellular fluid (Tyrode's solution), which might be expected on the basis of a different intracellular ionic strength. gammaNa was much lower than that of extracellular fluid, and suggest that much of the Na was compartmentalized or sequestered. For external K concentrations greater than 5 mM, the resting membrane potentials agreed well with the potential differences calculated from the K activity gradients across the cell membrane as a potassium electrode. These results emphasize that potassium equilibrium potentials in heart muscle should be calculated by activities rather than concentrations.

Ion Conductances

Osmotic swelling of Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells enhances the ion conductances of the cell membrane, which allows release of cellular ions and subsequent regulatory cell volume decrease. The present study has been performed to test whether cell shrinkage similarly affects the ion conductances of MDCK cell membranes. Increase of extracellular osmolarity by addition of 50 mM NaCl or 100 mM mannitol leads within 3 min to a hyperpolarization of the cell membrane, a marked increase of cell membrane resistance [by 223 +/- 38% (n = 8) and 228 +/- 21% (n = 5), respectively], as well as a moderate increase of the K+ selectivity of the cell membrane (by 37 +/- 13%, n = 9). Thus exposure to hypertonic extracellular fluid decreases the cell membrane conductances including the K+ conductance. Cell volume measurements reveal a regulatory cell volume increase, which is sensitive to both furosemide and dimethylamiloride. Extracellular ATP (10 microM), which activates calcium-sensitive K+ channels, hyperpolarizes the cell membrane close to the K+ equilibrium potential. The respective values are -69.9 +/- 3.1 mV (n = 9) in isotonic fluid, -79.4 +/- 1.8 mV (n = 9) within 3 min, and -76.4 +/- 1.8 mV (n = 7) within 16-h exposure to hypertonic extracellular fluid. This observation points to a sustained increase of intracellular K+ activity after exposure to hypertonic extracellular fluid.
