Mercurial diuresis in edematous individuals.
T HE effect of mercurial diuretics on the renal excretion of electrolytes has been thoroughly investigated in the dog and in the normal man.'-4 The electrolyte losses in the edematous patient, however, have been studied less extensively.4-7 There is general agreement that in both the normal individual. and in the edematous patient the diuresis is predominantly one of sodium and chloride. There ...
متن کاملEffect of osmotic and mercurial diuresis on simultaneous water diuresis.
A VARIETY of mechanisms have been proposed to explain the dilute urine excreted in water diuresis. Cushny (I) and Smith (2) may be consulted for references to the older literature. Theoretical concepts which have been current in recent years will be considered in more detail in the discussion at the end of this paper. The experiments reported here were devised to test the degree to which water ...
متن کاملMechanics of edematous lungs.
Using the parenchymal marker technique, we measured pressure (P)-volume (P-V) curves of regions with volumes of approximately 1 cm3 in the dependent caudal lobes of oleic acid-injured dog lungs, during a very slow inflation from P = 0 to P = 30 cmH2O. The regional P-V curves are strongly sigmoidal. Regional volume, as a fraction of volume at total lung capacity, remains constant at 0.4-0.5 for ...
متن کاملMechanisms Contributing to Unresponsiveness to Mercurial
The ultimate failure of edematous cardiac patients to respond to mercurial diuretics is well established. Although the older literature ascribed this to renal tubular accommodation to mercury, some patients have received mercurials for many years without manifesting such acquired tubular resistance. More recently, because of the potentiation of mercurial diuresis in previously unresponsive pati...
متن کاملSerum Albumin Level in Sudanese Children with Edematous and Non-Edematous Malnutrition
Introduction Edema formation in malnourished children is multifactorial and not necessarily caused by hypoalbuminemia. In Sudan, studies that evaluate serum albumin level in malnourished children are scarce, if any. The aim of this study is to assess serum albumin concentrations in Sudanese children with edematous and non-edematous malnutrition. Material and Methods The study involved 23 males ...
