TL;DR: Because it is inexpensive, diaphoresis may be particularly valuable in lower income countries where some patients may need to pay for dialysis and the short-term and long-term effectiveness, safety, and patient acceptance of diaphoretic therapy need to be more carefully investigated.

TL;DR: It is described how an occasional sauna bath (Diaphoresis) may permit an increased fluid intake in these patients on severely restricted fluid allowances.
Abstract: Many regular dialysis patients are on severely restricted fluid allowances. We describe how an occasional sauna bath (Diaphoresis) may permit an increased fluid intake in these patients.

TL;DR: The effect of diaphoresis on patients with Meniere's disease (labyrinthine hydrops) previously has not been reported as mentioned in this paper, however, with the use of two distinct activities to produce diaphoreis, they were able to document substantial transient improvements in pure-tone threshold, speech-reception threshold, and speech discrimination concurrent with a decrease in tinnitus and fullness in two patients with unilateral Meniere disease that had been diagnosed previously by the glycerin test.
Abstract: • The effect of diaphoresis on patients with Meniere's disease (labyrinthine hydrops) previously has not been reported. With the use of two distinct activities to produce diaphoresis, we were able to document substantial transient improvements in pure-tone threshold, speech-reception threshold, and speech discrimination concurrent with a decrease in tinnitus and fullness in two patients with unilateral Meniere's disease that had been diagnosed previously by the glycerin test. The two diaphoretic activities were (1) strenuous exercise, including periodic visits to the sauna, and (2) passive activity consisting of repetitive visits to the sauna. Glycerin, an osmotic diuretic, produces similar temporary beneficial effects primarily in patients in the fluctuant hearing stage of Meniere's disease. The glycerin test is being used in several clinics as an adjunct for the diagnosis of endolymphatic hydrops.

TL;DR: The diaphoretic function of Mahuang Decoction, which embodying the method of composing a prescription, became weaker when used together with Gancao(Radix Glycyrrhizac).
Abstract: Objective To study the influence of Mahuang Decoction(MD)in different combinations on diaphoretic function in rats.Methods Vacuole incidence of axillary sweat gland was determined by observing the histolomorphological changes of vacuole to evaluate the diaphoretic function.The diaphoretic function was observed in 30 minutes after administration.Results The combination of Mahuang(Herba Ephedrae)and Guizhi(Ramulus Cinnamomi)had the strongest diaphoretic function in all of the different combinations.The diaphoretic function of the combinations including Mahuang(Herba Ephedrae)was stronger than those excluding Mahuang(Herba Ephedrae).The diaphoretic function of Mahuang(Herba Ephedrae)became stronger when used together with Guizhi(Ramulus Cinnamomi),remained the same when used together with Xingren(Semen Armeniacea Amarum),and became weaker when used together with Gancao(Radix Glycyrrhizac).Conclusion Mahuang(Herba Ephedrae),Guizhi(Ramulus Cinnamomi),Xingren(Semen Armeniacea Amarum),and Gancao(Radix Glycyrrhizac)play the roles of principle drug,assistant drug,adjuvant drug and conductantr drug respectively in Mahuang Decoction,which embodying the method of composing a prescription.
