Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is common in prolonged endurance events. Risk factors for exercise-associated AKI include: the exercise itself, heat, hypohydration, muscle breakdown and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) use. Prior research from our laboratory showed the hypohydration during high-intensity running increased a biomarker of AKI (urine osmolality-corrected kidney injury molecule 1). Therefore, the current study will now investigate the effect of manipulating hydration status during cycling on biomarkers of AKI.
