Preventing hemodilution abolishes natriuresis of water immersion in humans

The hypothesis was tested that hemodilution is one of the determinants of the water immersion (Wl)-induced natriuresis. Eight males were subjected to 3 h of 1) WI to the midchest (Chest), 2) WI to the neck combined with thigh cuff-induced (80 mmHg) venous stasis (Neck + stasis), and 3) a seated time...

Description
Summary:The hypothesis was tested that hemodilution is one of the determinants of the water immersion (Wl)-induced natriuresis. Eight males were subjected to 3 h of 1) WI to the midchest (Chest), 2) WI to the neck combined with thigh cuff-induced (80 mmHg) venous stasis (Neck + stasis), and 3) a seated time control (n = 6).
