Excerpt

Vasopressin (AVP) plasma levels increase in the early phase of sepsis but remain at basal levels in the late phase of sepsis [1]. It is also known that one-half of septic patients do not properly respond to an osmotic challenge, one of the strongest stimuli for AVP secretion [2]. However, whether these AVP secretion changes persist in sepsis survivors is not known. This study investigated the possible alterations in plasma AVP levels in sepsis-surviving animals. …
