[The prognosis of endogenous nitrogen loss of the human body by the level of energy consumption]. / Prognoz poter' éndogennogo azota organizmom cheloveka po urovniu énergopotrebleniia.

Excretion of total nitrogen with urine and feces was studied and the value of nitrogen balance was calculated in young male volunteers under conditions of complete starvation or receiving protein-free rations of varying energy value. The data obtained were computerized and equations were derived permitting prognosis of the amount of daily excretion of endogenous nitrogen with urine and feces at different time and at any level of energy consumption.
