Systemic diseases associated with disorders of water homeostasis.
Disorders of AVP secretion and action sometimes present as the first manifestation of a variety of different systemic diseases. It is prudent for the clinician to consider these causes in the differential diagnosis of hypoosmolar [...]
EFFECT OF WATER DEPRIVATION ON COGNITIVE-MOTOR PERFORMANCE IN HEALTHY MEN AND WOMEN.
Whether mental performance is affected by slowly progressive moderate dehydration induced by water deprivation has not been examined previously. Therefore, objective and subjective cognitive-motor function was examined in 16 volunteers (8 females, 8 males, mean [...]

Disordered water metabolism: hyponatremia.
Normal osmoregulation is maintained by the proper function and interplay of factors influencing thirst, renal water metabolism, and vasopressin secretion. In pathophysiologic states, body water homeostasis is disrupted and hyponatremia ensures. Hyponatremia associated with cardiac [...]
