To study the effect of hyperosmolality on thermoregulatory responses, 5 men [average maximal O2 consumption (.ovrhdot.VO2 max) = 48 ml .cntdot. kg-1 .cntdot. min-1] cycled at 65-75% .ovrhdot.VO2 max for up to 30 min in a 30.degree. C, 40% relative humidity environment under 3 conditions. First, control tests (C) were performed where preexercise plasma volume (PV) and osmolality (Osm) averaged 3800 ml and 282 mosmol .cntdot. kg-1, respectively. Second, exercise tests (D) were performed following dehydration induced by fluid restriction and mild exercise (30% .ovrhdot.VO2 max) in hot (40.degree. C) ambient conditions. Each subject then rested in cool surroundings 1 h before performing the exercise test. Preexercise PV and Osm average 3606 ml and 293 mosmol .cntdot. kg-1, respectively. Third, exercise tests (I) were performed following dehydration, but during the 1-h rest interval, 3% saline was infused so that PV was restored to 3826 ml and Osm averaged 294 mosmol .cntdot. kg-1 prior to exercise. During D, esophageal temperatures (Tes) were significantly higher than C, an average 0.56.degree. C after 20 min exercise due to a 0.22.degree. C increase in Tes threshold for vasodilation, a 39% reduction in slope of the forearm blood flow (BF)-Tes relationship, a 32% average reduction in maximal exercise BF and a 0.22.degree. C increase in Tes sweating threshold. During I, responses were similar to D, except the BF-Tes slope and the maximum BF were not significantly different from C. Thus hyperosmolality modifies thermoregulation by elevating thresholds for both vasodilation and sweating even without decreases in PV.
