Nitric oxide production by human umbilical vessels in severe pre-eclampsia.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:Although 24-h urinary measure to estimate sodium and potassium excretion is the gold standard, it is not practical for large studies. We compared estimates of 24-h sodium and potassium excretion from a single morning fasting urine (MFU) using three different formulae in healthy individuals. M...
