Wikipedia
Natriuresis
Natriuresis is the process of sodium excretion in the urine through the action of the kidneys. It is promoted by ventricular and atrial natriuretic peptides as well as calcitonin, and inhibited by chemicals such as aldosterone. Natriuresis lowers the concentration of sodium in the blood and also tends to lower blood volume because osmotic forces drag water out of the body's blood circulation and into the urine along with the sodium. Many diuretic drugs take advantage of this mechanism to treat medical conditions like hypernatremia and hypertension, which involve excess blood volume.

natriuresis
Natriuresis is a medical term used to describe the excretion of sodium in urine. It typically occurs as a result of an increase in the filtration or reduction in the reabsorption of sodium by the kidneys, which can be triggered by various factors such as medications, hormones, or diseases. This process plays a crucial role in regulating the body's sodium balance and blood pressure.
