摘要
 The study was conducted on human volunteers as controls as well as after administration of vanadyl sulphate on induction to high altitude (HA) at 3500 m. The plasma vanadium contents were significantly reduced in the control group on abrupt induction to HA on days 3 and 10, indicating redistribution to other organs/tissues under the stressful situation. In the vanadium salt-treated group, plasma vanadium contents were similar to those obtained at sea-level. Administration of vanadyl sulphate did not act as a diuretic. Moreover the vanadium supplemented group drank more water and also excrete less urine than the control group.
