Abstract
Experiments in the rat indicate that following a period of intense muscular exercise, marked hyperchloremia develops and is maintained for several days following discontinuation of the exercise. Simultaneously, the red cell concentration decreases and the haematocrit values remain at approximately the same low level at least during the first 72 hr. of the recovery period.The blood sugar values, which decrease under the influence of muscular exercise, show a marked secondary rise even if the animals are fasted throughout the recovery period.Keywords
