The physiological regulation of thirst and fluid intake.
Thirst is important for maintaining body fluid homeostasis and may arise from deficits in either intracellular or extracellular fluid volume. Neural signals arising from osmotic and hormonal influences on the lamina terminalis may be integrated within the brain, with afferent information relayed from intrathoracic baroreceptors via the hindbrain to generate thirst.
متن کاملThirst
hypothermia is an adjunct, purely a "metabolic crutch, providing additional time in which to pursue the specific treatment, whether medical or surgical." The pathophysiology of the major congenital and acquired cardiac lesions is discussed in terms of the applicability and usefulness of hypothermia. In addition, the author discusses and evaluates the varied clinical situations in which hypother...

Our bodies are mostly water, and this water is constantly being lost through evaporative and other means. Thus the evolution of robust mechanisms for finding and consuming water has been critical for the survival of most animals. In this Primer, we discuss how the brain monitors the water content of the body and then transforms that physical information into the motivation to drink.

متن کاملComparative physiology of body fluid regulation in vertebrates with special reference to thirst regulation.
The origin of life took place in the ancient sea where the ionic concentration is thought to have been somewhat lower than that of the present day seas. This may partly explain why most vertebrate species have plasma ionic concentrations roughly one-third of seawater. Exceptions are primitive marine cyclostomes whose plasma is almost identical to seawater, and marine cartilaginous fishes that a...
