Ten hydropenic male subjects, 29–60 yr of age and without evidence of cardiovascular-renal disease, were examined with respect to renal function during the period 8:30 am-10:30 am. No infusions were given and because of the oliguric state of the subjects, the utmost care was used in emptying the bladder by catheter and air washout. The subjects remained recumbent in bed from the time of awakening until transferred by litter to the research unit, where they remained in the supine position throughout the test. The rate of sodium excretion remained essentially constant throughout the study period, an event contrary to the expected increase in sodium excretion due to the diurnal cycle and possibly related to the hydropenic state of our subjects. No evidence was obtained in these continuously recumbent subjects that a diurnal rhythm in sodium excretion extends into the mid-morning hours. Submitted on June 30, 1961

Background Therapeutic hypothermia (TH) is a well-established neuroprotective therapy applied in (near) term asphyxiated infants. However, little is known regarding the effects of TH on renal and/or myocardial function. Objectives To describe the short- and long-term effects of TH on renal and myocardial function in asphyxiated (near) term neonates. Methods An electronic search strategy incorporating MeSH terms and keywords was performed in October 2019 and updated in June 2020 using PubMed and Cochrane databases. Inclusion criteria consisted of a RCT or observational cohort design, intervention with TH in a setting of perinatal asphyxia and available long-term results on renal and myocardial function. We performed a meta-analysis and heterogeneity and sensitivity analyses using a random effects model. Subgroup analysis was performed on the method of cooling. Results Of the 107 studies identified on renal function, 9 were included. None of the studies investigated the effects of TH on long-term renal function after perinatal asphyxia. The nine included studies described the effect of TH on the incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) after perinatal asphyxia. Meta-analysis showed a significant difference between the incidence of AKI in neonates treated with TH compared to the control group (RR = 0.81; 95% CI 0.67–0.98; p = 0.03). No studies were found investigating the long-term effects of TH on myocardial function after neonatal asphyxia. Possible short-term beneficial effects were presented in 4 out of 5 identified studies, as observed by significant reductions in cardiac biomarkers and less findings of myocardial dysfunction on ECG and cardiac ultrasound. Conclusions TH in asphyxiated neonates reduces the incidence of AKI, an important risk factor for chronic kidney damage, and thus is potentially renoprotective. No studies were found on the long-term effects of TH on myocardial function. Short-term outcome studies suggest a cardioprotective effect.
