Abstract
Venous congestion of the legs produced by inflating cuffs on the thighs of supine normotensive patients caused reductions in urine flow, sodium chloride excretion and the clearances of PAH and inulin. The percentage decrease in excretion of water was greater than of electrolyte or clearance substances so that the concn. of these materials in the urine rose. Similar effects occurred in hypertensive patients before and after lumbo-dorsal sympathectomy.Keywords
