Pathophysiologic factors in the development of exercise-associated hyponatremia (EAH). AVP, arginine vasopressin.

Relationship between serum sodium after racing and the weight change (in %) during exercise in 2135 athletes who competed in endurance events. •, asymptomatic athletes; ○, athletes with symptoms compatible with EAH encephalopathy (EAHE). The majority of athletes who develop clinically significant hyponatremia have positive weight changes. Reprinted from reference (34), with permission. Copyright 2005 National Academy of Sciences.
