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.
This modality is very cost effective and has been used to correct hyponatremia in SIADH slowly, by 2â3 mmol/liter/day, a rate comparable to the effect of water restriction [Decaux, 2001; Soupart and Decaux, 2009].
