The effect of starvation on urinary output and biochemical indices of renal function was investigated in @entity35 . Starvation resulted in a marked fall in water intake. Urinary output paradoxically increased during the first day following starvation, but fell dramatically thereafter. Urinary @entity1011 excretion and @entity1011 clearance fell markedly, but plasma @entity1011 concentration did not alter. Plasma @entity1133 concentration and urinary @entity1133 excretion fell. Plasma @entity1372 concentration increased, whilst plasma @entity972 concentration did not alter; urinary @entity1372 and @entity972 excretion fell. Plasma @entity3157 concentration fell marginally, but the anion gap increased to a greater extent. Following re-feeding, water intake and urine output increased, as did urinary @entity1011 excretion and @entity1011 clearance. Plasma @entity1133 and urinary @entity1133 concentrations, as well as @entity1372 and @entity972 excretion, increased. Plasma @entity3157 increased and the anion gap decreased. These indices improved within 2 days of re-feeding and were restored to normal in 5 days.
