Animals subjected to certain cardiovascular manipulations, such as arteriovenous fistulas, diminish their urinary sodium excretion. It has been shown that closure of such fistulas results in a prompt increase in the rate of sodium excretion. However, the nature of the renal mechanisms increasing the excretion of sodium when the initial cardiovascular abnormality is corrected has remained unclear. Since the elucidation of such mechanisms might provide information pertinent to other sodium-retaining states, the effect of closure of chronic Teflon-Silastic arteriovenous shunts was studied in desoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA)-treated dogs by utilizing micropuncture techniques.

Usage information is collected from two different sources: this site (JCI) and Pubmed Central (PMC). JCI information (compiled daily) shows human readership based on methods we employ to screen out robotic usage. PMC information (aggregated monthly) is also similarly screened of robotic usage.
Various methods are used to distinguish robotic usage. For example, Google automatically scans articles to add to its search index and identifies itself as robotic; other services might not clearly identify themselves as robotic, or they are new or unknown as robotic. Because this activity can be misinterpreted as human readership, data may be re-processed periodically to reflect an improved understanding of robotic activity. Because of these factors, readers should consider usage information illustrative but subject to change.
