Abstract

The antidiuretic hormone (ADH) or arginine vasopressin (AVP) regulates the body's water balance. Recently, modifications in AVP levels have been related to osteoporosis during ageing and microgravity/bed rest. Therefore the present study was devised to assess whether the absence of AVP, as in patients with central diabetes insipidus (CDI), modulates renal calcium excretion.
