Predictions of the AVP secretion depends on the fluid intake probability during the sleeping period. 24 h simulation of the hydromineral parameters is displayed under two distinct conditions. The solid black line illustrates the prediction of the AVP secretion and related hydromineral parameters when fluid intake occurs twice at the beginning of the sleeping period (F, control condition). The solid gray line illustrates the prediction of the hydromineral parameters when the rat was forced to take one additional bout of water (F, dotted line 1).
