Chapter 20, Problem 32RQ

Osmotic diuresis refers to the loss of additional water in urine as a result of unreabsorbed solutes. To see what difference unreabsorbed solutes make, calculate the volumes of filtrate that would be needed for excretion of 150 milliosmoles of NaCl. Then repeat the calculation for a diabetic who is excreting the same 150 mosmol NaCl plus 200 mosmol unreabsorbed glucose.
