Basis of nocturnal polyuria in patients with autonomic failure.

چکیده
Five dysautonomic patients with the Shy-Drager syndrome were studied to determine the basis of their nocturnal polyuria. The results indicated excessive postural modification of renal function in dysautonomic patients. This may, in fact, relate to excessive release of ADH while these patients are up and about, and excessive inhibition while they are recumbent. Treatment with vasopressin produced an inconsistent response.

The effect of desmopressin on nocturnal polyuria, overnight weight loss, and morning postural hypotension in patients with autonomic failure.
Day and night urine volume, morning and evening body weight, and supine and sitting blood pressure were measured in five patients with chronic autonomic failure who were not receiving treatment with drugs. All had nocturnal polyuria, overnight weight loss, and a pronounced postural fall in blood pressure, with lowest levels in the morning. Desmopressin (2-4 micrograms given intramuscularly at 8...

متن کاملNocturnal polyuria in monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis refractory to desmopressin treatment.
The transition from day to night is associated with a pronounced decline in diuresis with reductions in the amount of excreted water, electrolytes, and other end products of our metabolism. Failure to do so leads to a large urine output at night, a condition known as nocturnal polyuria, encountered in a large proportion of children with nocturnal enuresis. The aim of this study was to clarify t...
