Inability of healthy subjects to deposit potassium during hypokinesia and potassium supplementation.
OBJECTIVE To determine the effect of potassium (K+) supplementation and hypokinesia (HK; diminished movement) on muscle K+ content and K+ loss. METHODS Studies were conducted on 40 healthy male volunteers during a pre-experimental period of 30 days and an experimental-period of 364 days. Volunteers were equally divided into four groups: unsupplemented control subjects (UCS), unsupplemented ex...
متن کاملPotassium Deposition During And After Hypokinesia In Potassium Supplemented And Unsupplemented Rats
The aim of this study was to determine that hypokinesia (restricted motor activity) could increase potassium (K+) losses with decreased tissue K+ content showing decreased K+ deposition. To this end, measurements were made of K+absorption, tissue K+ content, plasma K+ levels, fecal and urinary K+ excretion during and after hypokinesia (HK) with and without K+ supplementation. Studies conducted ...
متن کاملTotal body nitrogen and its relation to body potassium and fat-free mass in healthy subjects.
1. The amount of lean tissue in the body can be assessed by measuring total body nitrogen, total body potassium or fat-free mass. To compare these techniques we have measured total body nitrogen, total body potassium and fat-free mass in 91 healthy subjects (62 males, 29 females). 2. Total body nitrogen in the women and civilian men agreed closely with the few values reported previously and was...

متن کاملNormal calcium, sodium and potassium to creatinine ratio in Babol healthy adolescents
Background: Due to difficulty of obtaining a 24h urine (especially in children), a random urine calcium sample is recommended to detect of hypercalciuria. However, recent studies have shown that the urinary calcium/creatinine ratio varies with age and geographic areas. So, the aim of this study was determining the normal value of urinary calcium to creatinine ratio in healthy adolescent’s...
