Clues to renal sodium retention.
EXPANSION OF EXTRACELLULAR VOLUME manifests as peripheral and pulmonary edema in chronic heart failure (CHF) patients and can lead to hospitalizations and death (1, 10). Stimulation of the autonomic nervous system, elevated levels of arginine vasopressin (AVP), and activation of the renin-angiotensinaldosterone systems are thought to contribute to the volume overload associated with this disord...
متن کاملSodium, kidney and renal sodium retention
The tight regulation of the body's sodium and chloride concentrations is so important that multiple mechanisms work in concert to control them, and a minimal amount of salt is required for survival. Sodium (Na) and chloride (Cl) are the principal ions in the extracellular fluid, especially in blood plasma. Sodium retention is the most common renal abnormality of cirrhosis and eventually leads t...
متن کاملRenal retention of sodium in cirrhosis and fulminant hepatic failure.
Abnormal renal retention of sodium is a characteristic finding in both cirrhosis and fulminant hepatic failure. In cirrhosis the pathogenesis varies according to the level of renal perfusion. When this is normal, hyperaldosteronism is probably the most important factor and this results from an increased release of renin by the kidney. The stimulus to the latter may be a shunting of blood from t...
متن کاملInsulin and renal sodium retention in hypertension-prone men.
Insulin-stimulated peripheral glucose uptake and insulin-induced renal tubular sodium reabsorption were investigated in normotensive men with a family history of hypertension (relatives, n = 35) compared with age- and body mass index-matched normotensive men with no family history of hypertension (controls, n = 23). The effect of insulin on the renin-aldosterone system was also studied. The eug...
متن کاملInsulin and renal sodium retention in obese adolescents.
The effect of insulin on the renal handling of sodium was studied in obese and nonobese subjects by using euglycemic hyperinsulinemia. Seven water-loaded obese (14-19 years old) and five nonobese young adults (18-21 years old) had insulin given intravenously at a rate of 40 munits/m2/min. Blood glucose and creatinine clearance were not altered by euglycemic hyperinsulinemia in either the obese ...
