Journal ArticleDOI
Low-renin hypertension
TL;DR: Critical issues will be addressed are whether this represents a volume expansion type of hypertension; whether an unidentified mineralocorticoid accounts for this syndrome; what, if any, its prognostic implications are; and how it should be treated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Protection of Acid–Base Balance by pH Regulation of Acid Production
TL;DR: Under normal physiologic conditions, acid–base balance is maintained by renal excretion of hydrogen ions generated during the metabolism of dietary protein and other metabolic processes, but when a disturbance in systemic pH occurs as the result of an excess or loss of acid or base, shifts in body buffers and ventilatory adjustment of .
Journal ArticleDOI
Relationship of renal ammonia production and potassium homeostasis.
TL;DR: Observations suggest that changes in potassium modulate ammonia production, which in turn maintains hydrogen ion homeostasis and influences potassium excretion, and potassium-loading affects different portions of the renal tubule than depletion does.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vasopressin-resistant hyposthenuria in advanced chronic renal disease.
TL;DR: Eleven of 13 patients with far advanced chronic renal disease of diverse etiologies were found to have urine that remained hypotonic to plasma in spite of the administration of a supramaxi drug.
Journal ArticleDOI
Indomethacin potentiates the vasoconstrictor actions of angiotensin II in normal man
TL;DR: The blood pressure response to graded infusions of angiotensin II was assessed under control conditions and following short term indomethacin treatment utilizing normal men equilibrated on a constant diet of normal sodium and potassium content, suggesting that prostaglandins modulate the systemic vasoconstrictor effects of angiotsin II.
