Pearson correlation between the change (Δ) in core temperature evoked by exercise in the heat and the change in plasma neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), a marker of the potential for renal ischemia. Raw data were obtained across three published studies from our laboratory [62-64]. Inset box: Pearson correlations were also conducted separately for trials in which subjects were dehydrated and euhydrated. The resulting correlation coefficients were compared via the methods of Meng et al. [336]. *indicates that the change in core temperature explained more variance in the change in plasma NGAL when subjects were dehydrated compared to when euhydrated (P=0.03)
