    We investigated the amount of water that female student nurses consumed through drinking and eating and, in eight cases, the amount of urine excreted during a 24-hour period. The research was conducted on random days, selected by the students themselves, between the beginning of May and early June. One hundred and two subjects in their twenties participated in this study. From the 102 students surveyed, eight measured the volume of urine excreted during the 24-hour period of the diet survey. Eighty of the subjects were living alone on the day of the survey.
    The number of times the subjects drank averaged 3.9, while the number of times they ate averaged 3.5. The average amount of water consumed by each student was 1, 543ml; 774ml came from drinks and 768ml came from meals. The students who were living alone took 283ml less water in a day than those who were living with their families, because they ate an average of 193g less food. The amount of water taken from meals was closely correlated with the weight of food the subjects ate and also correlated with the amount of energy and nutrients taken. Each student took an average of 1, 462kcal of energy, 57.7g of protein, 49.9g of fat, 192.9g of carbohydrate, 144mEq of sodium and 53mEq of potassium from approximately 855g of food.
    The quantity of urine excreted by the 8 subjects in a day averaged 1, 338ml. The correlation coefficients to the urine volume of water from drinks, phosphorus, protein, potassium and calcium/phosphorus ratio ranged from about 0.5 to 0.7. None of these correlation coefficients to the urine volume, however, were statistically significant, because the number of subjects (8) was small.

    Although patients with advanced neurodegenerative diseases finally fall into the bed-ridden state, their degree of mental activity and brain atrophy differs in each case. The brain consumes ten times more energy and oxygen than other body organs per unit weight, so we estimated the resting energy expenditure (REE) in order to identify the proper nutrition supply for patients with neurodegenerative diseases. REE was investigated for 29 patients (14 men, 61.6±9.5 years old; 15 women 58.1±15.3 years old) and 22 healthy controls (11 men, 58.1±2.4 years old; 11 women, 58.9±1.1 years old). Seven of the patients were suffering from multiple system atrophy (MSA), 6 from spin-ocerebellar degeneration (SCD), 8 from Parkinsonism (P-ism), 4 from motor neuron disease (MND), 2 from Huntington's chorea (HC), one from Leigh's-encephalomyelopathy, and one from subacute myelo-optico-neuropathy (SMON). Four of the cases showed continuous or phasic involuntary movement in bed (the two HC patients, one of the SCD patients, and the one patient with Leigh's-encephalomyelopathy).
    The REE value of those patients with neurodegenerative diseases without involuntary movement was significantly lower (21.5±3.3kcal/kg) than that of the control group (24.0±3.6, p<0.02). Those patients with involuntary movement demonstrated an elevated REE value ranging from 25.1 to 37.8kcal/kg (31.8±5.7). REE was significantly lower in those patients with low mental activity (p<0.001) and those with marked brain atrophy (p<0.002). The influence of volitional physical activity on REE was slight.
    The neurodegenerative disease patients with well-preserved mental activity and brain tissue, as well as those with involuntary movement, showed relatively higher REE values, so the results of this study should be taken into consideration when planning the nutritional supply for bed-ridden patients.
