Plasma vasopressin concentrations, determined by radioimmunoassay, were followed throughout the menstrual cycle in eight healthy women. The concentrations were found to depend on the day of the menstrual cycle. The mean concentration on day 1 was 0·5±0·08 (s.e.m.) μu./ml, while that on days 16–18 was 1·1±0·16 μu./ml. These values were significantly (P <0·02) different. Vasopressin release in women may thus depend on the hormonal changes during the menstrual cycle.
Journal of Endocrinology is committed to supporting researchers in demonstrating the impact of their articles published in the journal.
The two types of article metrics we measure are (i) more traditional full-text views and pdf downloads, and (ii) Altmetric data, which shows the wider impact of articles in a range of non-traditional sources, such as social media.
