In a crude oil contract, a one-cent move is equal to $10. When determining NYMEX's crude oil profit and loss figures, you calculate the difference between the contract price and the exit price, and then multiply the result by $10.
The hypothesis is that strict fluid restriction leads to a larger increase in plasma sodium than standard treatment in patients with decompensated heart failure associated with hyponatremia. A secondary hypothesis is that the neurohormonal change is greater in patients treated with strict fluid restriction versus standard treatment.
Mild asymptomatic hyponatremia (above 125 mEq/L of sodium) secondary to SIADH may be treated with fluid restriction, typically 500 cc/day to 1000 cc/day or 60% of total fluid output (sum of insensible and urinary output).
