The osmotic ratio of urine to serum varied from 0.97 to 1.23, and the urine specific gravity from 1.009 to 1.011. The osmolar excretion ranged from 6.3 to 9.6 milliosmoles per minute. Urine flow ...

THE use of mannitol for osmotic diuresis has ... Infusion of 1000 ml. of 5 per cent dextrose in water and 800 ml. of one-sixth molar sodium lactate caused a moderate diuresis, but urine ...

Volumes of urine up to 7–8 c.c./min. were passed, and this urine had a much lower osmotic pressure than the urine passed by the same person before the salt was given.

Hyperglycemia-induced osmotic diuresis results in severe fluid loss. The total body deficit of water is usually about 5–7 L in DKA and 7–12 L in HHS , which represents a loss of about 10%–15% of body ...

Consequently, water loss in the urine is increased due to osmotic diuresis induced by glucosuria. This water loss leads to severe dehydration and hypoperfusion, hypotension , lactic acidosis , and ...

The regulation of urine excretion during nighttime hours is ... blood pressure on sleep deprivation nights may also have affected the blood pressure in the kidney producing an osmotic diuresis.
