Abstract:A study was carried out on student volunteers in two centres to examine the effects of climate on the normal state of hydration (urinary osmolality).

The study failed to show a statistically significant difference between effects of the two climates. However, it was found that antidiuretic hormone significantly increased urinary osmolalit… Show more
