1.Primary Outcome
Title Copeptin Levels
Hide Description Measured by fasting blood draw; Copeptin will be measured by ultrasensitive assays on KRYPTOR Compact Plus analyzers using the commercial sandwich immunoluminometric assays (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA). The copeptin assay has a lower limit of detection of 0.9 pmol/L, and a sensitivity of <2pmol/L. Elevated copeptin will be defined as >13pmol/L, which is >97.5th percentile for healthy adults (68).
Time Frame 4 hours
Hide Outcome Measure Data
Hide Analysis Population Description
The overall number of participants analyzed for the outcome measure Copeptin levels is 49 because of an assay issue, specifically one of the samples failed during quality control.

2.Primary Outcome
Title Effective Renal Plasma Flow (ERPF)
Hide Description Measured by para-aminohippurate (PAH) clearance; An intravenous (IV) line was placed, and participants were asked to empty their bladders. Spot plasma and urine samples were collected prior PAH infusion. PAH (2 g/10 mL, prepared at the University of Minnesota, with a dose of [weight in kg]/75 × 4.2 mL; IND #140129) was given slowly over 5 min followed by a continuous infusion of 8 mL of PAH and 42 mL of normal saline at a rate of 24 mL/h for 2 h. After an equilibration period, blood was drawn at 90 and 120 min, and ERPF was calculated as PAH clearance divided by the estimated extraction ratio of PAH, which varies by the level of GFR (13). We report absolute ERPF (mL/min) in the main analyses because the practice of indexing ERPF for body surface underestimates hyperperfusion, and body surface area (BSA) calculations introduce noise into the clearance measurements.
Time Frame 4 hours
Hide Outcome Measure Data
Hide Analysis Population Description
The overall number of participants analyzed for the outcome measure ERPF is 37 because PAH was unavailable for several of the first study visits.

3.Primary Outcome
Title Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR)
Hide Description Measured by iohexol clearance; An intravenous (IV) line was placed, and participants were asked to empty their bladders. Spot plasma and urine samples were collected prior to iohexol infusion. Iohexol was administered through bolus IV injection (5 mL of 300 mg/mL; Omnipaque 300, GE Healthcare). An equilibration period of 120 min was used and blood collections for iohexol plasma disappearance were drawn at +120, +150, +180, +210, +240 min (11). Because the Brøchner-Mortensen equation underestimates high values of GFR, the Jødal-Brøchner-Mortensen equation was used to calculate the GFR (12). We report absolute GFR (mL/min) in the main analyses because the practice of indexing GFR for body surface underestimates hyperfiltration, and body surface area (BSA) calculations introduce noise into the clearance measurements.

4.Secondary Outcome
Title Renal Perfusion
Hide Description Measured by Arterial Spin Labeling (ASL) MRI; ASL MRI: ROI analysis will be used to estimate (delta) M (difference in signal intensity between non-selective and selective inversion images). Using the same ROI, M0 will be estimated from the proton density image. T1 measurements from the same ROI will be obtained by fitting the signal intensity vs. inversion time data as described previously (104) using XLFit (ID Business Solutions Ltd., UK) or T1 maps created using MRI Mapper (Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Boston). Partition coefficient will be assumed to be 0.8 ml/gm (105, 106). These values will then be used to estimate regional blood flow.
Time Frame 10 min

The overall number of participants analyzed for the outcome measure Renal Perfusion is 45 because scans did not meet the high quality control standard of our MRI reader and thus were omitted.

5.Secondary Outcome
Title Renal Oxygenation
Hide Description Measured by Blood Oxygen Level Dependent (BOLD) MRI; Regions of interest (ROI) analysis for BOLD MRI will be performed on a Leonardo Workstation (Siemens Medical Systems, Germany). Typically, 1 to 3 regions in each, cortex and medulla, per kidney per slice will be defined leading to a total of about 10 ROIs per region (cortex and medulla) per subject. The mean and standard deviation of these 10 measurements will be used a R2* measurement for the region, for the subject and for that time point. These data are used to calculate kidney oxygen availability (R2*), which is the BOLD-MRI outcome.
