The physiological regulation of thirst and fluid intake.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Thirst is important for maintaining body fluid homeostasis and may arise from deficits in either intracellular or extracellular fluid volume. Neural signals arising from osmotic and hormonal influences on the lamina terminalis may be integrated within the brain, with afferent information relayed from intrathoracic baroreceptors via the hindbrain to generate thirst.

Effect of ice chips on intensity of thirst and fluid intake in patients undergoing hemodialysis
Background: Thirst is the most common complaint of patients undergoing hemodialysis with stimulating the patient to drink more fluids result in intradialytic weight gain. Thirst leads to some complication including heart problem which is one of the most common causes of death in these patients. Aim: To determine the effect of ice chips on thirst and fluid intake of patients undergoing hemodialy...
متن کاملThirst and fluid intake following graded hypohydration levels in humans.
The relationship among changes in thirst sensations, blood variables, and differential fluid intake in hypohydrated humans was examined. Seven subjects were hypohydrated by 0%, 3%, 5%, and 7% of their body weight on four separate trials which were systematically randomized between subjects. Hypohydration levels were achieved with a regimen of restricted food and fluid intake and moderate heat-e...

The present study investigated whether salt appetite in the elderly is impaired similar to thirst because of the commonality of their physiological substrates and whether alterations in salt appetite are related to mood. Elderly (65-85 years, n 30) and middle-aged (45-58 years, n 30) men and women were compared in two test sessions. Thirst, psychophysical ratings of taste solutions, dietary Na ...
متن کاملThe Fate of Ingested Water
Except in some of the lower orders, virtual constancy of the volume of body water is a prerequisite for the normal function and indeed the survival of the organism. In terrestrial animals, particularly, adaptive mechanisms provide for physiological regulation of the amounts of water which leave and enter the body. Although solid foods provide a considerable quantity of pre-formed water to the b...
متن کاملA role for the lateral parabrachial nucleus in cardiovascular function and fluid homeostasis
The lateral parabrachial nucleus (LPBN) is located in an anatomical position that enables it to perform a critical role in relaying signals related to the regulation of fluid and electrolyte intake and cardiovascular function from the brainstem to the forebrain. Early neuroanatomical studies have described the topographic organization of blood pressure sensitive neurons and functional studies h...
