Protein2
- BIA) four-electrode bioimpedance method is safe, fast, simple and accurate, and can sensitively respond to more than ten health indicators such as body fat mass, body water content, body muscle mass, protein, and basal metabolism. (bodyweightheightscale.com)
- An applied pressure forces the water solution containing protein test subjects to the tip of the micropipette as it sits immersed in a small drop of oil on the microscope stage. (medgadget.com)
Overload8
- Fluid overload, or hypervolemia, is a common complication of kidney disease, particularly in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on hemodialysis. (medscape.com)
- Fluid overload remains a challenge to diagnose, as traditional clinical parameters are often subjective or difficult to interpret in the setting of kidney disease. (medscape.com)
- A recent study published in the Journal of the American Society of Nephrology examined the association between fluid overload, as assessed by BIS, and risk of mortality among 39,566 incident hemodialysis patients from 26 countries. (medscape.com)
- The investigators also examined the association of cumulative fluid overload over 1 year and risk of subsequent mortality. (medscape.com)
- Cumulative fluid overload was assessed by longitudinal BIS measures and calculating area-under-the-curve over 1 year among survivors. (medscape.com)
- The associations between cumulative fluid overload with mortality were even stronger than that seen with baseline measures of fluid overload. (medscape.com)
- The association between fluid overload as assessed by bioimpedance and long-term outcomes has been evaluated in a few prior studies as well. (medscape.com)

Homeostasis1
- There are two major issues that emphasize the need to keep the body adequately hydrated with water of the best quality, content and structure so it can maintain homeostasis. (mandarinwater.com)
Ions3
- Sodium chloride in water dissociates to provide sodium (Na + ) and chloride (Cl − ) ions. (nih.gov)
- When in water, an electrolyte dissolves into positive or negative ions that have the ability to conduct electricity. (healthline.com)
- However, the cytosol is not just simply water, or H 2 O. The cytosol also contains, salts, ions, and organic compounds. (scientistcindy.com)
Readily2
- Insensible water loss (IWL) is water loss that is not readily measured. (medscape.com)
- Intracellular water is not readily measured. (nih.gov)
Regulate fluid1
- It helps the body regulate fluid, send nerve signals and regulate muscle contractions. (healthline.com)
