An interventional study of Bio Impedance assesement (BIA) and Blood and salava sample in Total Body Water and Nocturnal Polyuria, sponsored by University Hospital, Ghent. Completed at 1 site in Belgium. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 30 Years, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2020-08-20.

The aim of this pilot was to study how body water behaves between the different internal water pools of the human body, what the role and influence of the interstitium is and what the effect is of body position on the distribution and allocation of BW between different body parts (trunk, legs, arms). To study this, 2 techniques that have not been used before in urological research were tested on their usefulness:
14 studies on the registry are indexed under Polyuria; 2 are open to participants now.

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Weight in kilograms divided by height in metres squared. Example: 70 kg and 1.75 m gives 70 ÷ (1.75 × 1.75) ≈ 22.9.
What counts as overweight or obesity differs between countries (some use lower cut-offs), so go by the range the study states.

BIA every 5 minutes od the test protocol. Patients stood up for 5 minutes, laid down for 70 minutes, followed by 5 minutes in a seated position and ending with 30 minutes standing. BIA was done every 5 minutes.
Blood Samples were done at the initation of the protocol, and every 10 minutes after ingestion of the deutarated water
15 minutes after the intiation of the test protocol, participants drink an amount of deuterated water corresponding with 0.25% of their TBW calculated using the Watson Formula
A urine sample is taken at the initiation and after termination of the protocol.
Observing the absorption time, and the lay over time from deuterated water from the gast of deuterated water in the blood
Aim of this overview is to assess how fast the deuterium oxide ingested in the human gastro-intestinal tractus, the colon and the blood pool. We want to know if this is 5min or even more 30 min and when the maximal dose of deuterium in the blood is reached.
Time frame: 3 hours
Observing impedance changes linked with position switch
Decrease of impedance by 1 amplitude by changing positions grom standing to lying.
Time frame: 5 minutes
Plan to share: Undecided
