HOI natriuresis involves non-ANP mechanisms; leaves open the identity of additional volume-regulatory factors in healthy subjects.
Does head-out water immersion induce natriuresis exclusively through the release of atrial natriuretic peptide in healthy individuals?
The natriuretic response to head-out water immersion is not exclusively mediated by atrial natriuretic peptide, indicating other physiological factors are involved.
Rabelink et al. (1989) studied this question.
