The plasma EDLS level increases in response to fluid or salt loading. EDLS may play a role in salt and blood pressure regulation. Being considered as a volume-expanding state, pregnancy may cause an increase in maternal EDLS. However, further studies to identify the origin of EDLS in normal pregnancy are needed.展开更多
