Abstract

Prescribed Water Intake in Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease The effect of increased water intake on kidney cyst growth in patients with polycystic kidney disease was compared for two groups randomly assigned to either prescribed or ad libitum water intake. Over 3 years, there was no difference in height-corrected total kidney volume between the groups.
