A Comparison of Natriuresis after Oral and Intravenous Sodium Loading in Sodium-Depleted Rabbits: Evidence for a Gastrointestinal or Portal Monitor of Sodium Intake

Abstract
1. Rabbits in balance on a low sodium diet were given doses of sodium chloride either orally or intravenously. 2. Those receiving oral doses responded with a much greater natriuresis than those receiving intravenous ones. 3. This could be explained by the existence of a sodium input monitor somewhere in the gut or portal circulation.
