Disorders of Water and Acid-Base Homeostasis
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Disorders of water balance lead either to dehydration or overhydration. Because there is an intimate relationship between water and sodium concentration (water generally following salt), one can distinguish hypotonic, isotonic and hypertonic dehydration and the same for overhydration. The vast majority of water balance disorders are acquired. In this article, the focus is on the inherited disorders both of water (nephrogenic diabetes insipidus) and acid-base balance. Both acidosis and alkalosis can arise from primary tubular ion transport abnormalities. The alkaloses are usually secondary to salt handling problems, whereas the renal tubular acidoses are often a consequence of primary abnormalities of acid-base transporters. Copyright © 2010 S.

متن کاملSevere metabolic acidosis in a patient with an extreme hyperglycaemic hyperosmolar state: how to manage?
Severe acid-base disorders combined with electrolyte disturbances are of ten seen in patients with hyperosmolar hyperglycaemic state (HHS) or diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). Acid-base disorders and electrolyte disturbances are tightly connected [1]. The aims of this clinical lesson are (i) to give insight in the relation between hyperglycemia, acid-base disturbances and electrolyte homeostasis, (i...
متن کاملEffects of Vanadyl Sulphate on Glucose Homeostasis in Severe Diabetes Induced by Streptozotocin in Rats
Background: There is not any in vivo studies that shows inducing of euglycemia by vanadyl is independent from plasma insulin. Therefore in the present study we planned to investigate the antidiabetic effects of vanadyl in diabetic rats. Materials and Methods: Rats became severely diabetic by an IV injection of 50-55mg/kg streptozotocin (STZ), 15 days after the injection, the blood glucose of ...
