1 Urinary aquaporin-2 in healthy humans and patients with liver cirrhosis and chronic heart failure during baseline conditions and after acute water load  Robert S. Pedersen, H. Bentzen, J.N.

2 Figure 1 Urinary excretion of aquaporin-2 (u-AQP2) after an acute water load in 14 healthy subjects (A), 14 patients with liver cirrhosis (B), and 14 patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) (C). Baselines are from the end of the 24-hour urine collection to the beginning of the study. Results are means with ± SD. *P < 0.05 vs. baseline; †P < 0.05 vs. healthy subjects at baseline.

3 Figure 2 Relative changes in urinary aquaporin-2 (u-AQP2) after an acute water load in 14 healthy subjects (□), 14 patients with liver cirrhosis (), and 14 patients with chronic heart failure (▪). Baselines are from the end of the 24-hour urine collection to the beginning of the study. Results are means ± SD. †P < 0.05 vs. healthy subjects.

4 Figure 3 Plasma levels of vasopressin (AVP) at baseline and at 240 minutes after an acute water load in 14 healthy subjects (□), 14 patients with liver cirrhosis (), and 14 patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) (▪). Baselines are from the end of the 24-hour urine collection to the beginning of the study. Results are means ± SD. *P < 0.05 vs. baseline; †P < 0.05 vs. healthy subjects; ††P < 0.05 vs. healthy subjects at baseline.

5 Figure 4 Urinary osmolality (u-osm) after an acute water load in 14 healthy subjects (A), 14 patients with liver cirrhosis (B), and 14 patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) (C). Baselines are from the end of the 24-hour urine collection to the beginning of the study. Results are medians with 25th, 75th, 10th and 90th percentiles. *P < 0.05 vs. baseline.
