A normal male subject has transient inc in Bp to 146/88 after rapid infusion of 2 L of NL saline .which findings are most likely for the following :

atrial natriuretic factor
renin
aldosterone
angiotensin
ADH

choose either inc or dec for the above .

I would assume.... anp: incr , Renin: dec, Aldo: dec, Angiot: dec, ADH: dec...since they all contribute to obtaining volume in a hypovolemic state and only ANP helps with diuresis... But i could be wrong more replies would be helpful

i to agree...infusion of saline causes ANP increase..

wer as other choices are to increase in hypovolemic state...ie decrease in vol...secrete renin...aldo..n Angio..
and ADH... also increase..
