Hypertonic Expansion of the Extracellular Fluids

Acta Paediatrica, 1957
Summary1. Sodium chloride was added to the milk given to premature infants and newborn piglets which were then reared by hand.2. The addition of salt led to (a) an abnormal increase of weight; (b) a rise in the serum sodium and chloride; (c) an expansion of the extracellular volume and ultimately massive oedema; (d) a reduction in the catabolism of ...

Superoxide dismutase in extracellular fluids

Clinica Chimica Acta, 1982
Serum from healthy volunteers contained very little CuZn superoxide dismutase. Larger amounts were found in serum from patients with impaired renal function, and there was a good correlation between serum creatinine and serum CuZn superoxide dismutase content.

Extracellular and cerebrospinal fluids

Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, 1993
SummaryThe mechanism of formation of extracellular fluid is first described, followed by an explanation of the relation between osmotic force, reflection coefficient and molecular size. The possible mechanism of brain extracellular fluid formation is then proposed in relation to the restriction offered by the blood‐brain barrier.The functions and ...

Reserpine and Extracellular-Fluid Volume

New England Journal of Medicine, 1957
IT is a well established observation that Rauwolfia therapy causes an increase in body weight in some hypertensive subjects. Certain clinical observations have suggested that this weight increase might be the result of fluid retention. McGregor and Segel,1 Perera,2 Smirk and McQueen3 and Marley and Pare4 have described edema, breathlessness and raised ...

The antioxidants of human extracellular fluids

Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1990
The antioxidants in the aqueous phase of human plasma include ceruloplasmin, albumin (the protein itself and possibly also albumin-bound bilirubin), ascorbic acid, transferrin, haptoglobin, and hemopexin. Assays that attempt to answer the question "what is the most important antioxidant?" are compared, it being concluded that the answer is different ...

Extracellular fluid in normal pregnancy

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1951
Abstract 1. 1. The distribution of bromide ion as a measure of extracellular fluid space was studied in a series of 25 normal antepartum and 15 normal postpartum patients. 2. 2. The extracellular fluid was found to be 11.3 L. per square meter of body surface ante partum, and 10.2 L. per square meter post partum. 3. 3.

Extracellular fluid miRNAs in PCOS

Clinica Chimica Acta
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a prevalent endocrine condition that impacts both reproductive and metabolic functioning. Despite thorough research, the exact causes of PCOS remain unclear. Recent studies indicate that microRNAs (miRNAs), which are small non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression, could be crucial for comprehending PCOS.

THE VOLUME OF EXTRACELLULAR BODY FLUIDS IN MALNUTRITION

Pediatrics, 1948
Extracellular body fluid volume, as measured by the thiocyanate method, was found to increase per kilo of weight considerably in malnutrition. In severe malnutrition nearly half of the body is made up of extracellular water. The absolute amount of the latter is, however, decreased, though proportionately to a smaller extent than fat and protoplasmic ...

Estimates of Extracellular Fluid Volume of Myocardium

American Journal of Physiology-Legacy Content, 1955
The extracellular fluid volume of the myocardium was determined in nephrectomized cats using sucrose as a reference material. This was allowed to equilibrate for one day before analysis. The chloride space, sodium space and an extracellular fluid volume based on the Conway-Boyle hypothesis were also determined.

Renal Regulation of the Extracellular Fluid

Nature, 1948
THE behaviour of the kidney in relation to the electrolytes of the extracellular fluid is usually described in terms of two mechanisms operating to maintain the homceostatic state : (a) Regulation of the concentration of several individual electrolytes and non-electrolytes within a limited range of variability.
