NCT02078908

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of different doses of sodium nitrite infusion in 12 healthy subjects. The effects on renal handling of nitrite, nitrate, sodium and water, plasma concentrations of vasoactive hormones, peripheral (brachial) and central blood pressure will be evaluated. Hypothesis Sodium nitrite infusion

  1. 1.increases urinary sodium excretion and renal filtration rate
  2. 2.lowers blood pressure, central as well as peripheral
  3. 3.affects vasoactive hormones
  4. 4.it is possible to establish a dose that affects the renal function with only minor effect on the blood pressure.
