A 65-kg man is participating in a research study for
which it is necessary to know the volumes of his body
fluid compartments. To measure these volumes, the
man is injected with 100 mci (millicurie) of H0 and
500 mg of mannitol. During a 2-hour equilibration
period, he excretes 10% of the H,0 and 10% of the
mannitol in his urine. Following equilibration, the
concentration of H,0 in plasma is 0.213 mCi/100 ml
and the concentration of mannitol is 3.2 mg/100 mL.
• What is his total body water, his ECF volume, and his
ICF volume? is the man's total body water appropriate
for his weight?
Diabetes insipidus (DI) is a condition where the action of antidiuretic hormone (vasopressin) is inhibited. If normal urine concentration is 300 mOsm/L, what would you expect the urine concentration to be of a patient with DI?

- A 65-kg man is participating in a research study for which it is necessary to know the volumes of his body fluid compartments. To measure these volumes, the man is injected with 100 mCi (millicurie) of H20 and 500 mg of mannitol.

- The steroid nandrolone, which is found naturally in horses, is administered to racing horses to aid in recovery. Because it is an anabolic steroid, nandrolone levels in excess of normal background levels disqualify a horse from racing. For example, to race in the Kentucky Derby, a gelding (a castrated male horse) may have no more than 1 ng/mL in the urine, whereas an unaltered male horse may have no more than 45 ng/mL of the metabolite estrane-3,17-diol in the urine. Knowing that nandrolone is an anabolic steroid, which hormone would you expect it to closely resemble? (testosterone cortisol O progesterone O epinephrine antidiuretic hormone During metabolism, carbon 3 and carbon 4 of nandrolone are reduced, forming the metabolite estrane-3,17-diol.
