Heat and Hydration Status: Predictors of Repeated Measures of Urine Specific Gravity Among Tsimane' Adults in the Bolivian Amazon

摘要

Objective: Hydration status is critical to physiological and cognitive health, yet it is unclear how populations living in hot-humid environments experiencing lifestyle transitions manage this underexplored facet of heat adaptation. This study assesses the predictors of repeated measures of hydration status for adults from two villages (close and distant from a market town) in the Bolivian Amazon.
