27 Poorly controlled diabetes mellitus, which results in high blood glucose, often causes glucose to be found in the
urine. Explain this finding.
28 Drugs known as potassium-sparing diuretics work by blocking the effects of aldosterone on the kidney. What effect
would these drugs have on the amount of urine produced, on the blood pressure, and on potassium ion concentration
in the blood? Could these drugs have a negative impact on the acid-base balance of the body? Explain.
