Textbook Question
Chapter 20, Problem 33RQ
Osmotic diuresis refers to the loss of additional water in urine as a result of unreabsorbed solutes. To see what difference unreabsorbed solutes make, calculate the volumes of filtrate that would be needed for excretion of 150 milliosmoles of NaCl. Then repeat the calculation for a diabetic who is excreting the same 150 mosmol NaCl plus 200 mosmol unreabsorbed glucose.

- A 65-kg man is participating in a research study for which it is necessary to know the volumes of his body fluid compartments. To measure these volumes, the man is injected with 100 mci (millicurie) of H0 and 500 mg of mannitol. During a 2-hour equilibration period, he excretes 10% of the H,0 and 10% of the mannitol in his urine.

- Acetazolamide is a diuretic that blocks the activity of the enzyme carbonic anhydrase inside kidney tubule cells. This blockage prevents theformation of carbonic acid from CO2 and water. Normally, carbonicacid dissociates to form H+ and HCO3−, and the H+ is exchanged forNa+ from the urine. Blocking the formation of H+ in the tubule cellsblocks Na+ reabsorption, thus inhibiting water reabsorption andproducing the diuretic effect. With this information in mind, what effectdoes acetazolamide have on blood pH, urine pH, and respiratory rate?arrow_forwardExplain the mechanism how furosemide affects kidney tubules.

All filtered glucose is released in the PCT unless plasma glucose abnormally high B. It is reabsorbed by coupling with Na+ recovery via a sodium glucose cotransporter C.

The CD recovers any glucose that is not reabsorbed by the PCT nephron loop and DCT this is not and will not be gradedarrow_forward
