Interventions for altering blood pressure in people with acute subarachnoid haemorrhage [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Subarachnoid haemorrhage has an incidence of up to nine per 100,000 person-years. It carries a mortality of 30% to 45% and leaves 20% dependent in activities of daily living.

Sodium fraction excretion rate in nocturnal enuresis correlates with nocturnal polyuria and osmolality [PDF]
: Purpose: We verify the sodium fraction excretion rate (FE Na) and potassium fraction excretion WE K) rates in monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis. We also correlate FE Na and FE K to urinary osmolality, nocturnal polyuria and vasopressin in the same ...

Vasopressin and Vasopressin Receptor Antagonists [PDF]
Vasopressin, a neurohypophyseal peptide hormone, is the endogenous agonist at V1a, V1b, and V2 receptors. The most important physiological function of vasopressin is the maintenance of water homeostasis through interaction with V2 receptors in the kidney.

Molecular evolution of the neurohypophysial hormone precursors in mammals: comparative genomics reveals novel mammalian oxytocin and vasopressin analogues [PDF]
Among vertebrates the neurohypophysial hormones show considerable variation. However, in eutherian mammals they have been considered rather conserved, with arginine vasopressin (AVP) and oxytocin (OT) in all species except pig and some relatives, where ...

Background: Laparoscopic cystectomy for ovarian endometrioma, despite its high usefulness, reduces ovarian reserve; so, several methods are proposed to reduce this problem.

Vasopressin (antidiuretic hormone) is emerging as a potentially major advance in the treatment of a variety of shock states. Increasing interest in the clinical use of vasopressin has resulted from the recognition of its importance in the endogenous response to shock and from advances in understanding of its mechanism of action.

The Effects of Lysine Vasopressin on Conditioned Behaviour in Rats [PDF]
This thesis is concerned with lysine vasopressin's (LVP's) behavioural activity. Chapter One describes vasopressin's synthesis, secretion, metabolism, pressor, antidiuretic and putative corticotrophic functions with emphasis on behaviourally ...

Control of Renal Tubular Sodium and Water Absorption - An Animated Model
The kidney is among the most complex of internal organs. This is due in large part to the multiple and integrated mechanisms of the kidney and their highly dynamic regulation by a variety of neurohormonal and hemodynamic inputs.
