Use of 'Vaptans' in treatment of hyponatremia

Türk Kardiyoloji Derneği Arşivi, 2015
Hyponatremia is the most prevalent electrolyte imbalance, and may be present in up to 30% of hospitalized patients. It is an important predictor of in-hospital mortality.

DDAVP Challenges in 170 Children With von Willebrand Disease: Response Classification Varies According to Criteria Used

Haemophilia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Individuals diagnosed with types 1/1C/2A/2M von Willebrand disease (VWD) typically undergo a desmopressin (DDAVP) challenge to assess therapeutic benefit. This involves measuring von Willebrand factor antigen (VWF:Ag), activity (VWF:Act; VWF:RCo/VWF:GPIbM/VWF:Ab), and coagulant factor VIII (FVIII:C) levels 0 (pre), 1, and 4‐h post‐

Baroreflex loading maneuvers do not suppress increased plasma arginine vasopressin in patients with congestive heart failure [PDF]

, 1992
Nonspecific baroreflex loading maneuvers such as head-down till readily suppress stimulated arginine vasopressin levels in normal humans. To test the hypothesis that the increased arginine vasopressin levels in patients with congestive heart failure ...

High urine osmolality and elevated urine sodium predict early nonresponse to fluid restriction in patients with the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuresis

Journal of Internal Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Fluid restriction is the current first‐line therapy for hyponatremia induced by the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuresis (SIAD), yet up to 50% of patients do not achieve an adequate plasma sodium correction. Reported predictors of nonresponse include urine osmolality >500 mOsm/kg, the Furst ratio >1 [(UNa + UK)/(PNa)], urine ...

Engineered surface strategies to manage dental implant‐related infections

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract When exposed to the oral environment, dental implants, like natural surfaces, become substrates for microbial adhesion and accumulation, often leading to implant‐related infections—one of the main causes of implant failure. These failures impose significant costs on patients, clinicians, and healthcare systems.

Arginine vasopressin in vasodilatory shock: effects on metabolism and beyond

, 2008
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: To describe the effects of arginine vasopressin other than its vasoconstrictive and antidiuretic potential in vasodilatory shock. RECENT FINDINGS: Arginine vasopressin influences substrate metabolism by stimulation of hepatic glucose ...

Seven days of mixed‐method heat acclimation improved markers of cardiovascular and fluid‐regulatory strain during exercise‐heat stress

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract A mixed‐method heat acclimation (HA) protocol may optimise performance by supporting the training taper while promoting thermal adaptation; however, the impact on cardiovascular and fluid‐regulatory adjustments to protect health is unknown. Therefore, we examined the effects of a mixed‐method heat protocol on physiological responses, including

The molecular basis of V2 vasopressin receptor-G Protein coupling selectivity [PDF]

, 2003
G­Protein­gekoppelte Rezeptoren (GPCRs) stellen eine der größten in der Natur vorkommenden Proteinfamilien dar (Watson and Arkinstall, 1994). GPCRs sind plasmamembranständige Proteine, die mit heterotrimären G­Proteinen interagieren und eine Vielzahl an ...

Autosomal dominant familial neurohypophyseal diabetes insipidus caused by a mutation in the arginine-vasopressin II gene in four generations of a Korean family [PDF]

Annals of Pediatric Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2014
Autosomal dominant neurohypophyseal diabetes insipidus is a rare form of central diabetes insipidus that is caused by mutations in the vasopressin-neurophysin II (AVP-NPII) gene.

Update on cellular expression and function of ANO1 channels in urethral smooth muscle

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Activation of ANO1 channels and resulting Cl− efflux are suggested to modulate urethral smooth muscle contractility by enhancing Ca2+ influx via voltage‐dependent Ca2+ entry and resulting contraction in urethral smooth muscle cells.
