The amount of urine excreted by the kidneys is affected by certain physiological conditions, especially by the amount of fluids taken into the system, and certain foods and drugs which stimulates kidney activity. it is also affected by certain systemic conditions or diseases, such as :
- diabetes,
- high blood pressure,
- and a certain form of Bright's disease.
Lowering of external temperature causes the kidneys to secrete more urine due to the cessation of the sweat glands to excrete perspiration, and due to decreased loss of moisture from the lungs during breathing.
