  		Fig. 1A —Renal blood flow (RBF). Original and fitted absolute RBF of one volunteer: left panel for sodium chloride (NaCl) injection, right panel for contrast medium injection. Solid lines display estimated treatment-specific population average time course of absolute RBF (estimate based on data from all 12 volunteers). Dashed lines show fitted treatment-specific individual RBF time course. Open circles represent original RBF measurements for this volunteer.

  		Fig. 1B —Renal blood flow (RBF). Change in RBF relative to mean of five basal measurements (-5 to -1 minute after injection). Absolute RBF in this case was 607 ± 26 mL/min on study day 1 (sodium chloride measurements [{blacksquare}]) and 497 ± 14 mL/min on study day 2 (contrast medium measurements [{circ}]).

  		Fig. 2A —Change of renal blood flow (RBF). Change of RBF relative to mean of five basal measurements before IV injection of sodium chloride (NaCl) (A) and radiographic contrast medium iomeprol 400 (B). Each mean is calculated from measurements of 10-12 individuals. Solid bars indicate SD of measurements at particular time (e.g., SD of measurements 30 minutes after injection). Dashed vertical lines (slightly shifted to right for better visibility) display five simultaneous one-sided 95% CIs, and their horizontal caps indicate simultaneous 95% upper confidence limits. Dotted vertical line indicates start of injection of NaCl. (Data of both graphs are also shown in Table 1.)
