1. Acute severe sodium subtraction (20-25% of total exchangeable sodium) before or during treatment with adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH) does little to modify the increase in blood pressure induced by ACTH. 2. Chronic low salt diet, less than 5 mmol/day, abolishes the blood pressure increase, but the response can be restored by increasing the sodium intake to as little as 10 mmol/day. 3. 17...

The case is reported of a young woman with severe hypertension, unilateral renal artery stenosis, variously normal or marginally high plasma concentrations of active renin, angiotensin II, aldosterone, sodium, and potassium; and normal total exchangeable and total body sodium and potassium. Arteriograms and ureter catheterization showed the stenosis to be severe, but the unstimulated renal vein...

present research was conducted with the aim of determination of significant effect of soil properties on natural regeneration of haloxylon aphyllum and correlation coefficient and linear relation between soil variables and natural regeneration of haloxylon aphyllum. firstly, geomorphologic units were prepared in the areas under cultivation of haloxylon aphyllum in ardestan. two cultivated lands...

Sodic soil is one of the most common problems of limiting agricultural production that related on irrigation. Saturated hydraulic conductivity is one of hydrodynamic characteristics in evaluating transmission flow through underground levels. To investigate the role of increment of exchangeable sodium in hydraulic conductivity changes (as characterized by the mobility of water in soil) an experi...

introduction: soil erosion by water is one of the most important processes of land degradation, especially in semi-arid areas. among different types of the soil erosion, gully erosion accounts as one of the most critical processes which can cause soil destruction, changes in landscape and water resources filling of reservoir of dams,decrease in water transport capacity of rivers and agricultura...
