Authors study the metabolic evolution of osmolarity, natraemia, chloremia, kaliemia and uremia of 40 infants with hypertonic dehydration. They divide the serie into two groups in accordance with initial value of natraemia: more or less than 170 mEq./l. The slow average decreases by hour of osmolarity, natraemia and chloremia were evaluated, and that justifies good evolution of hypertonic dehydration and minimal neurological repercussion found. Renal function in this metabolic condition is discussed. The usefulness of the fluidotherapic technique employed is demonstrated.

Osmotic dehydration as a process of removing water from food by immersing the raw material in a hypertonic solution is used primarily to extend the shelf life of products and as a pretreatment before further processing steps, such as drying and freezing. However, due to the bi-directional mass transfer that occurs during osmotic dehydration, the process can also be used to shape sensory properties and enrich the plant matrix with nutrients. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of osmotic dehydration on the absorption of potassium by beet pulp immersed in various hypertonic solutions (sucrose, inulin, erythritol, xylitol solutions) with the addition of three chemical forms of potassium (gluconate, citrate, chloride) using variable process conditions.

This work aims to investigate the dynamics of water loss (WL) and solute gain (SG) during dehydration impregnation by immersion (D2I) and intermittent immersion (D3I). WL and SG of mango slices, 4 1 1 cm in size, during dehydration immersion impregnation (D2I) and dehydration impregnation by intermittent immersion (D3I) were determined at 35, 45 and 55 °C for 270 min. Mango slices were immersed in a hypertonic sucrose solution of (61.

Congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI; also known as arginine vasopressin resistance) is a rare inherited disorder of water homeostasis, caused by insensitivity of the distal nephron to arginine vasopressin. Consequently, the kidney loses its ability to concentrate urine, which leads to polyuria, polydipsia and the risk of hypertonic dehydration. The diagnosis and management of NDI are very challenging and require an integrated, multidisciplinary approach.

This work aimed to determine the optimum conditions for dehydration impregnation by immersion (D2I) and by intermittent immersion (D3I) of mango () slices measuring 4 × 1 × 1 cm. To this end, the Doehlert response surface plan was used, with the following factors for D2I: the volume of D2I solution/fruit mass ratio (6/1-13/1 mL/g), the process time (120-360 min) and the Brix degree of the solution (45-65 °Brix) and with the following factors for D3I: immersion time (20-60 min), process time (60-300 min) and de-immersion time (7-25 min). The temperature was fixed according to literature at 35 °C.
