Abstract
SUMMARY: The output of urinary adrenocorticoids has been studied in man before, during and immediately after exposure to high environmental temperatures. The results indicate that while there was no significant change in the excretion of 17-hydroxycorticoids, cortisone and cortisol or of tetrahydrocortisone and tetrahydrocortisol there was a significant increase in the output of aldosterone.Keywords
