The hypothesis that an increase in plasma sodium concentration (PNa) causes an increase in circulating atrial natriuretic polypeptide (ANP) was examined in conscious dogs. NaCl solution in small volume (0.3 ml/kg body wt) and at high concentration (20%) was injected intravenously within 2 s to rapidly increase PNa. PNa rapidly increased to 5.1 +/- 0.3 meq/l. Urinary excretion of sodium and water increased to 4.1 and 2.5 times the control levels, respectively. Plasma vasopressin level increased to 3.7 times the control level. Plasma ANP level (PANP) did not change significantly. PANP corrected for sodium-induced hemodilution did not change either. On a different day, a double amount of sodium (0.6 ml/kg body wt of 20% NaCl solution) was intravenously injected into the dogs. PNa increased by 7.3 +/- 0.4 meq/l, which was significantly more than the increase after the 0.3 ml/kg injection. PANP with or without correction for hemodilution again did not change. These results indicate that a rapid increase in PNa within the physiological range does not cause elevation of circulating ANP. This suggests that ANP does not contribute to the regulation of plasma sodium concentration.

The effects of eel atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) on drinking were investigated in eels adapted to freshwater (FW) or seawater (SW) or in FW eels whose drinking was stimulated by a 2-ml hemorrhage. An intra-arterial infusion of ANP (0.3–3.0 pmol ⋅ kg−1 ⋅ min−1), which increased plasma ANP level 1.5- to 20-fold, inhibited drinking dose dependently in all groups of eels. The drinking rate recovered to the level before ANP infusion within 2 h after infusate was replaced by saline. The inhibition at 3.0 pmol ⋅ kg−1 ⋅ min−1was profound in FW eels and hemorrhaged FW eels, whereas significant drinking still remained after inhibition in SW eels. Plasma ANG II concentration also decreased dose dependently during ANP infusion and recovered to the initial level after saline infusion in all groups of eels. The decrease at 3.0 pmol ⋅ kg−1 ⋅ min−1was large in FW eels and hemorrhaged FW eels compared with that of SW eels. Thus the changes in drinking rate and plasma ANG II level were parallel during ANP infusion. Plasma sodium concentration and osmolality decreased during ANP infusion in SW and FW eels, and they were restored after saline infusion. In hemorrhaged FW eels, however, ANP infusion did not alter plasma sodium concentration and osmolality. Hematocrit did not change during ANP infusion in any group of eels. Collectively, ANP infusion at physiological doses decreased drinking rate and plasma ANG II concentration in parallel in both FW and SW eels. It remains undetermined whether the inhibition of drinking is caused by direct action of ANP or through inhibition of ANG II, which is known as a potent dipsogen in all vertebrate species, including eels.

The purpose of this study was to determine whether small elevations in plasma sodium concentration (PNa) were effective in decreasing aldosterone secretion and, hence, in increasing sodium excretion in dogs fed normal sodium diets. Ten dogs fed a normal sodium diet, six DOCA-treated dogs, and four adrenalectomized dogs were given the same sodium load (2.5 mmol/kg) either as a hypertonic (1 M NaCl) or hypotonic (0.1 M NaCl) infusion. In all three groups of dogs, PNa was greater after the hypertonic than after the hypotonic infusion during most of the 22-h experiment. The dogs fed a normal sodium diet responded to the elevation in PNa (hypertonic infusion) with decreased aldosterone excretion and an exaggerated natriuresis. When aldosterone levels were maintained constant by either DOCA treatment or adrenalectomy, the exaggerated natriuresis that accompanied the hypertonic infusion was prevented. Therefore, elevation of PNa appears to be an important determinant of aldosterone secretion and, hence, of sodium excretion in conscious dogs fed normal sodium diets.

1. The role of the plasma sodium concentration in the regulation of aldosterone secretion and sodium excretion was investigated by comparing in 13 conscious sodium-depleted dogs the effects of the same sodium load (2.5 mmol/kg) given as either a hypertonic or hypotonic infusion. 2. The plasma sodium concentration was significantly higher and the plasma aldosterone concentration and urinary aldosterone excretion were significantly lower after the hypertonic infusion as compared with the hypotonic infusion. 3. The cumulative urinary sodium excretion during the 22 h after beginning the infusion was significantly greater after the hypertonic infusion, but this difference was not observed in five sodium-depleted dogs who were treated with deoxycorticosterone acetate before the infusions were given. 4. These data suggest that elevations in plasma sodium concentration are effective in decreasing aldosterone secretion and, hence, in increasing sodium excretion in conscious sodium-depleted dogs.

Objective: Study on 106 patients with closed head injury, assessment of serum ADH concentration, correlation with Glasgow score, sodium and plasma osmotic pressure. Patients and methods: Patients with closed head injuries were diagnosed determined by computerized tomography, admitted to the Hue Central Hospital 72 hours ago. Results: (i) Serum concentration of ADH 42.21 ± 47.80 pg/ml. (ii) There is a negative correlation between serum levels of ADH with: (1) Glasgow point r = -0.323, p <0.01; (2) Plasma sodium concentration r = - 0.211, p > 0.05; (3) Plasma osmotic pressure r = - 0.218, p> 0.05. Conclusion: There is a negative correlation between serum levels of ADH with Glasgow scale, plasma sodium concentration and osmotic pressure in plasma. Key words: ADH traumatic brain injury.

Context: Twenty-five percent of athletic trainers administer pickle juice (PJ) to treat cramping. Anecdotally, some clinicians provide multiple boluses of PJ during exercise but warn that repeated ingestion of PJ may cause hyperkalemia. To our knowledge, no researchers have examined the effect of ingesting multiple boluses of PJ on the same day or the effect of ingestion during exercise. Objective: To determine the short-term effects of ingesting a single bolus or multiple boluses of PJ on plasma variables and to characterize changes in plasma variables when individuals ingest PJ and resume exercise. Design: Crossover study. Setting: Laboratory. Patients or Other Participants: Nine euhydrated men (age = 23 ± 4 years, height = 180.9 ± 5.8 cm, mass = 80.7 ± 13.8 kg, urine specific gravity = 1.009 ± 0.005). Intervention(s): On 3 days, participants rested for 30 minutes, and then a blood sample was collected. Participants ingested 0 or 1 bolus (1 mL·kg−1 body weight) of PJ, donned sweat suits, biked vigorously for 30 minutes (approximate temperature = 37°C, relative humidity = 18%), and had a blood sample collected. They either rested for 60 seconds (0- and 1-bolus conditions) or ingested a second 1 mL·kg−1 body weight bolus of PJ (2-bolus condition). They resumed exercise for another 35 minutes. A third blood sample was collected, and they exited the environmental chamber and rested for 60 minutes (approximate temperature = 21°C, relative humidity = 18%). Blood samples were collected at 30 and 60 minutes postexercise. Main Outcome Measure(s): Plasma sodium concentration, plasma potassium concentration, plasma osmolality, and changes in plasma volume. Results: The number of PJ boluses ingested did not affect plasma sodium concentration, plasma potassium concentration, plasma osmolality, or changes in plasma volume over time. The plasma sodium concentration, plasma potassium concentration, and plasma osmolality did not exceed 144.6 mEq·L−1 (144.6 mmol·L−1), 4.98 mEq·L−1 (4.98 mmol·L−1), and 289.5 mOsm·kg−1H2O, respectively, in any condition at any time. Conclusions: Ingesting up to 2 boluses of PJ and resuming exercise caused negligible changes in blood variables. Ingesting up to 2 boluses of PJ did not increase plasma sodium concentration or cause hyperkalemia.

SUMMARYAdrenaline was infused at three rates, 40, 15 or 3 μ/kg/h, in normal sheep and in sheep rendered hypercortisolaemic by infusion of cortisol at 150 μg/kg/h. In both normal and hypercortisolaemic animals, plasma concentrations of glucose and free fatty acids were increased by adrenaline treatment; plasma phosphate decreased with all treatments; plasma magnesium and potassium decreased on infusion of adrenaline at 40 or 15, but not at 3 μg/kg/h; plasma calcium decreased only on infusion of adrenaline in hypercortisolaemic animals, and plasma sodium concentration was unaffected by treatment.Induction of a degree of lipolysis likely to occur in the field was not associated with a marked decrease in plasma magnesium.
