Abstract
In addition to its effect on water permeability, vasopressin, through its V2 receptors (AVPR2), stimulates Na reabsorption in the collecting duct by increasing the activity of the amiloride-sensitive sodium channel ENaC. This study evaluated whether dDAVP (a potent AVPR2 agonist) reduces sodium excretion in healthy humans (n = 6) and in patients with central (C; n = 2) or nephrogenic (N) diabetes insipidus (DI) as a result of mutations of either the aquaporin 2 gene (AQP2; n = 3) or AVPR2 (n = 10). dDAVP was infused intravenously (0.3 microg/kg body wt in 20 min), and urine was collected for 60 min before (basal) and 150 min after the infusion. dDAVP markedly reduced both urine flow rate and sodium excretion in healthy individuals. A reduction in sodium excretion was also observed in CDI and NDI-AQP2 patients but not in NDI-AVPR2 patients. The magnitude of the fall in sodium excretion correlated with the rise in urine osmolality and the fall in urine output but not with the simultaneously observed fall in mean BP. These results suggest that the dDAVP-induced antinatriuresis is due to a direct V2 receptor-dependent stimulation of sodium reabsorption in the collecting duct and is not secondary to a hemodynamic effect. In conclusion, this study reveals a potent V2-dependent antinatriuretic effect of vasopressin in humans. The possibility that an inappropriate stimulation of ENaC by vasopressin might lead to significant sodium retention in chronic situations remains to be determined.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
