MDH activity in extracellular fluid (EF) from leaf samples of transgenic ibm 8 (1.3) and ibm10 (2.1) lines was undetectable, which again shows that EF was not contaminated with cytosolic proteins and has a higher concentration of phylloplanin fused to GFP.
Urea is major nitrogenous end product of protein and amino acid catabolism, produced by liver and distributed throughout the intracellular and extracellular fluid. In kidneys, urea is filtered out of blood by glomerulli and is partially being reabsorbed with water.
Syringomyelia is a cystic cavitation of the spinal cord containing fluid that is identical or similar to the cerebrospinal and extracellular fluids. Hydatid disease of spine may cause inflammation in the spinal cord.

Pecker says that one possible explanation for the study findings is that sweetened drinks may cause mild increases in blood sugar, which are associated with extracellular fluid volume expansion and higher blood pressure.
On each specified day, in the afternoon (13.00-14.00 h), the measurements of total body water (TBW), extracellular fluid (ECF) and plasma volume (PV) were performed.
If the BBB is not intact after severe neurotrauma, it is possible that serum albumin may leak into the extracellular fluid of the brain resulting in more brain oedema (12).
Although this study was not able to achieve its primary end-point of reducing extracellular fluid volume, the intervention group had decreased episodes of IDH.
Total body magnesium is approximately 1000 mmols, of which 60% is in bone, 20% in skeletal muscle, and less than 1% in the extracellular fluid. In the circulation, 65% of serum magnesium is free (ionised), about 20% is protein bound, and the rest is complexed with various anions (eg: phosphate and citrate).
Rapid expansion of extracellular fluid with isotonic saline and then oral or 1V maintenance should be tailored to half maintenance or maintenance based on the child's response.
Generalised oedema becomes clinically noticeable when the extracellular fluid space is expanded by about 2 - 3 litres of fluid.
