    Urinary osmolality as measured with density test (specific gravity) using the Atago refractometer PAL-10S BLT/A+W (Atago, Tokyo, Japan). The refractive index is a ratio of the velocity of light in air to the velocity of light in solution, which is directly proportional to the number of dissolved solids in urine.

    The Balance Error Scoring System (BESS) was used to assess balance under 3 testing stances: double leg, single leg (non-dominant leg) and tandem (dominant foot in front of the non-dominant foot in heel-to-toe fashion) on 2 surfaces (ground and foam pad). The total score was the total number of errors across the six 20-sec repeated measures.
