(1) The effect of normal ureter stimulation towards the opposite normal kidney (240 cases): The percentage of oliguria (17.9%) and polyuria (2.1%) was about the same with normal reno-renal reflex, but both the oliguria and the polyuria were observed in slighter degree and in shorter minute.
(2) The effect of normal ureter stimulation towards the opposite tuberculous kidney (128 cases): In the initial tuberculous kidney, the oliguria was found about in the same percentage (17.5%) with (1), but in slighter degree and in shorter minute, while it occured in the heavier tuberculous kidney less frequently (6.8%) and in slighter degree.
(3) The effect of tuberculous ureter stimulation towards the opposite normal kidney (114 cases): In the initial tuberculous ureter, the oliguria was observed in the same frequency (17%) with (1) and the initial tuberculous kidney of (2), while it occured in slighter degree and in shorter minute than in case of the initial tuberculous kidney of (2). In the heavier tuberculous ureter, the oliguria was found less frequently (12. 6%), which was very slighter in degree and lasted in remarkably shorter time. No polyuria was observed in all 3 cases of reflex.
