ANTIDIURESIS AS A MEASUREMENT OF LABORATORY INDUCED MOTION SICKNESS

Abstract
Eighty-one human subjects and two bitches have been exposed to accelerations on a turntable or a swing for the purpose of inducing motion sickness. An inhibition of water diuresis consistently accompanied laboratory-induced motion sickness. Subjects who failed to become motion sick exhibited a much smaller inhibition of diuresis or none at all. The inhibition of diuresis is related to the motion sickness itself and is not due to the direct effects of centrifugal and rotational forces on the circulation.
