Clearance of inulin and CHH2O were compared in control rats and in rats after 25–35 days of potassium deficiency. The latter had a decrease in inulin clearance and a proportional decrease in CHH2O. After 5–13 days of repair in the potassium-deficient group the clearance of inulin was normal and the CHH2O was normal or possibly high. A slight impairment in ability to dilute urine was noted.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
