REDUCED THIRST AFTER WATER DEPRIVATION IN HEALTHY ELDERLY MEN.
To determine whether responses to dehydration are altered with age, we investigated the thirst, fluid and electrolyte responses, and hormonal responses to 24 hours of water deprivation in seven healthy active elderly men (67 to 75 years old) and seven healthy young men (20 to 31 years old) who were matched for weight loss during [...]
EFFECTS OF HYDRATION ON FEBRILE TEMPERATURE PATTERNS IN RABBITS
Patients with fever have a predisposition to experience dehydration, which may alter their thermoregulatory responses to elevated body temperature. In view of the recent discovery of the antipyretic activity of arginine vasopressin (AVP), it is possible that dehydration has a beneficial role during fever. Dehydration may enhance endogenous antipyresis by stimulating AVP release, making aggressive [...]
HYPONATREMIA AND RHABDOMYOLYSIS: A POSSIBLE RELATIONSHIP
A 40-year-old schizophrenic presenting with an acute toxic psychosis was found to be severely hyponatremic with a serum osmolality of 217 mOsm/kg. The patient was combative and required physical restraints. Shortly after admission the patient's serum transaminase level was elevated, and the next day the CPK value was 175,000 IU. In addition, his serum and [...]
