Evidence suggesting renal tubular excretion of potassium in man during recovery from acute renal insufficiency.

In 1942 Winkler and Smith (1), studying the simultaneous renal clearances of exogenous creatinine and potassium in dogs following the injection of potassium salts, concluded that potassium is normally filtered at the glomerulus and subjected to a variable degree of tubular reabsorption. The highest potassium/creatinine clearance ratio obtained by these authors was 0.40. In 1948 Berliner and Ken...
