The gray shaded areas represent electrolyte concentrations (mM) in samples from the subject’s initial peak flow, i.e., day 7 for # 19 and day 42 for # 50. ND = not determined.

a

The initial peak flow rate for this subject was on day 14. The day 7 flow was 0.24 ml/min/gland, and was substantially above baseline (0.092).

b

The initial peak flow rate for this subject was on day 28. The day 7 flow was 0.184 ml/min/gland, 36% above baseline (0.135).

c

The initial peak flow for this subject was on day 28. The day 7 flow was 0.058 ml/min/gland, 31% above baseline (0.044).
