Circulatory overload due to expansion of extracellular fluid is a serious adverse effect of mannitol; as a consequence, pulmonary oedema can be precipitated in patients with diminished cardiac reserve, and acute water intoxication may occur in patients with inadequate urine flow. So, as interstitial oedema is determined by starling's forces, it is possible that the increased hydrostatic pressure created by the manitol offsets the increased oncotic pressure leading to extravasation of fluid.

The hypoxia associated with high altitude can cause?
The hypoxia associated with high altitude can cause symptoms such as shortness of breath, headaches, fatigue, dizziness, and difficulty sleeping. In severe cases, high altitude hypoxia can lead to altitude sickness, pulmonary edema, or cerebral edema, which can be life-threatening if not treated promptly.
Does E. faecalis test positive for MSA agar test?
E. faecalis typically does not ferment mannitol, so it does not grow well on mannitol salt agar (MSA) and would not test positive on this medium. MSA is selective for organisms that can ferment mannitol, such as Staphylococcus species.
What does water do when built up in the body?
It can cause edema, whether it be peripherally, pulmonary, or cerebral. Peripheral edema when controlled may be completely harmless. Pulmonary edema can affect gas exchange, literally causing a person to drown in their own lungs. Cerebral edema is swelling in the brain, which can lead to permanent brain damage. Good news? Usually you can take a diuretic (water pill) and get rid of most excess water in the body in very little time.
Can drugs cause cerebral edema?
yes
Do cerebral emboli cause strokes?
An estimated 5-14% of all strokes are caused by cerebral emboli
Can a blood transfusion cause a pulmonary embolus?
can
What was the cause of death for Henry Ford?
Cerebral Hemorrhage
What cause hemorrhage?
Rupture of one of the cerebral arteries.
Why does decreased pulmonary blood flow cause cyanosis?
Decreased pulmonary blood flow alone does not cause cyanosis. It is when decreased pulmonary blood flow is associated with right to left shunting (ie Tetralogy of fallot) that it is associated with cyanosis.
Does diesel exhaust cause pulmonary fibrosis?
Yes
What was the cause of Bruce Lee death?
Cerebral Edema.
Alfred Nobel cause of death?
