[Individual characteristics of water-mineral metabolism during 120-day head-down tilt hypokinesia and the effectiveness of prophylactic measures].
Sodium balance and circulating plasma, intracellular, extracellular and interstitial fluid volumes were measured in the test subjects exposed for 120 days to head-down tilt at -5 degrees. The large scatter of the above parameters was associated with individual variations and with the use of different countermeasures against demineralization (exercise and drugs-xydiphone and glucamak). The effect of the countermeasures was different both in qualitative and quantitative terms. It appears that the target of their action was different. The best prophylactic effect was seen when exercise and drugs were used in combination. These findings suggest that individual variations of fluid-electrolyte metabolism during prolonged hypokinesia are related to the different capacity of tissues for water and electrolytes.
