This study compares early and late effects of the injection of hyperosmolar NaCl and urea of equal osmolarity on selected aspects of brain water, electrolyte, carbohydrate, amino acid, urea, and energy metabolism in normal suckling-weanling mice. One hour after treatment, salt-treated mice were
This is a study of the effects of chronic hypernatremic dehydration and rehydration on carbohydrate, energy, and amino acid metabolism in the brains of weanling mice. Chronic hypernatremic dehydration induced by 4 days of water deprivation and salt loading was associated with severe weight loss (no
As sodium level in diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and hyperglycemic hyperosmolar state (HHS) is usually low, normal, or slightly elevated, severe hypernatremia with DKA and/or HHS is rare. Case 1 was a 14-year-old boy, presenting with typical laboratory test values and symptoms consistent with DKA and
Hypernatremic dehydration was induced in rabbits during a 3- to 5-day period resulting in mean plasma sodium concentrations of 187 meq/liter. The animals were then rehydrated during a 4-h period by intravenous administration of a 2.5% glucose or fructose solution. The water content of four regions
A 13-year-old Asian boy presented with an 8 h history of lethargy and vomiting. He had a 3-week history of polyuria, polydipsia and a 6 kg weight loss over a period of 1 month. Fluid intake prior to admission was over 6 L of sports drinks and cola per day. Initial biochemical findings were as
