| Description | The Guyton model, modified by the addition of leg compartments and the effect of the gravity vector, was used to evaluate hypotheses describing leg dehydration and fluid shifts. While the study is not complete, the basic approach was shown to be useful by identifying important mechanisms, identifying systems which need further experimental description and by assisting in the development of a general hypothesis. |
