... fluid, five 2-liter exchanges for 10 liters per day, would allow the removal of 7,000 mg of urea, the average quantity generated on a diet of a 70-kg person eating 1 g of protein per kg of body weight per day. The procedure was originally called ‘equilibrium peritoneal dialysis', but was later changed...

... das Atemminutenvolumen (unter Ruhebedingungen etwa 16 x 500 ml = 8 Liter) auf mehr als 30% der maximalen Respirationskapazität (normalerweise 120–150 Liter) steigt, und hauptsächlich, wenn der Atemwegswiderstand bei Bronchusobstruktion 5 cm H2O/1 s übersteigt. Bei einem jungen gesunden Sportler...

... Abstract Gases are also produced while passing through the gastrointestinal tract, possibly resulting in abdominal symptoms although gas is continuously removed by eructation, anal evacuation, absorption through the intestinal mucosa, and bacterial consumption. It seems that 2–8 liters of air...

... Working Group (EUDIAL) recommendations, convective dose is the total volume of ultrafiltration achieved per HDF session (liters/session) and aggregated to week (liters/week), adjusted to postdilution mode for the various dilution modalities (pre-, mixed-, or mid-HDF) [ 6 ]. This is an easily derived...

... performance in competitive cyclists has been investigated. Studies have shown a 1–2% reduction in the time to complete time trial distances between 4 and 16 km. The dose of nitrate that has been shown to improve exercise efficiency can readily be achieved through the consumption of 0.5 litre of beetroot juice...

... and oxidize fat are activated more slowly than CHO at the onset of exercise and reach a maximum at moderate exercise intensities. As exercise intensity increases to ∼75% VO2max and beyond, fat metabolism is inhibited: using CHO will increase the amount of energy produced per liter of oxygen consumed...

... Abstract Anstieg der täglichen Urinausscheidung auf über 2 Liter. Gesteigertes Durstgefühl (Polydipsie) ist meist die Folge, gelegentlich jedoch die Ursache. ...

... Abstract SummaryThe aerosol produced by an ultrasonic generator has a mass medium particle diameter of about 6 m and contains up to 200 mg of water per litre of air. In a mist tent the larger particles are lost and the mass median diameter (MMD) of the cloud is about 3 μ with a moisture content...

... liter of RBC. 1 % of RBC potassium was lost.Hypotonic osmotic fragility studies showed a progressive decrease in resistance to hypotonic saline during a three hours' period of glucose exposure. Re-equilibration with plasma resulted in a normal osmotic fragility curve for 80 % with abnormal fragility...

... (literally) healthy eating. Finally, physicians’ own health and nutrition are powerful predictors of nutrition education to patients and can be a target of intervention as well. Introduction The importance of healthy nutrition in the prevention and management of common, chronic conditions...

... (four daily 2-liter exchanges) or an increased dose to maintain a total creatinine clearance of greater than 60 liters/week/1.73 m 2 . The total Kt/V urea was 2.27 in the intervention group compared to 1.80 in the control group. The 2-year overall patient survival was similar in both groups (68 and 69...

... forms of monogenic diabetes, such as neonatal diabetes mellitus (NDM), and the identification of literally tens of genes that cause diabetes, either in isolation or syndromic. Of note, NDM genetics not only shed light on several aspects of pancreatic β-cell biology, but revealed new and unexpected...

... randomizedwell-controlled in-house nutrition trials lasting for weeks or even months, a situation generally not available for most other modern nutrition studies in childhood or adulthood. It was literally like, amazingly, there was now a new human species discovered, very preterm infants, with increasingly...

... trials confirmed these findings, suggesting a better survival when a convection volume of at least 23 litres/session was delivered, while other studies did not confirm these conclusions. Even after extensive statistical adjustments, residual confounding always remain; therefore, randomized control trials...

.... The beneficial effects of predilution OL-HDF have recently been evaluated by 2 Japanese studies. A study by the Japanese Society for Dialysis Therapy (JSDT) found a clear survival benefit for all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality of predilution OL-HDF with a substitution volume >40 liters/session...

... of continuous arteriovenous hemodiafiltration (CAVHDF) and continuous arteriovenous hemodialysis (CAVHD) where uremic control could be by increasing countercurrent dialysate flow rates to 1.5 or 2 liters/h as necessary, or by venovenous techniques utilizing a double-lumen central venous catheter for vascular...

.... In this chapter, we examine the extant literate on the mental health and psychosocial challenges experienced by older PLWHA as elements of the total health of the individual. We also provide a contextualization and conceptualization for understanding the significant role that resilience may play in empowering...

.... The patient via handheld computer can activate this function. After 2 h, the fluid is drained and a 2-liter icodextrin exchange is performed overnight to achieve further ultrafiltration. Assuming a daily clearance of 12 liters obtained by the minicycler, as demonstrated by the experimental findings...

... Shackford, who made a great contribution to mankind by providing 40 liters of plasma in the year prior to his death, was distributed to many researchers. This accelerated the exploration of the mechanisms involved in allergic reactions, especially regarding the role of mast cells in IgE-mediated reactions...
