Hypothalamic ("central") diabetes insipidus. It is a hormonal disorder, in what either not enough antidiuretic hormone was made by hypothalamus, or not enough was released by the pituitary gland. The result is frequent, large volume urination as the body's water (fluid) balancing ability is disturbed.
A lack of antidiuretic hormone (ADH) can lead to diabetes insipidus, characterized by excessive urination and thirst due to the body's inability to retain water properly. This condition can result in dehydration and electrolyte imbalances if left untreated.
Hypo secretion of antidiuretic hormone (ADH) leads to a condition called diabetes insipidus. This causes excessive thirst and urination, as the kidneys are unable to concentrate urine properly. This can result in dehydration and electrolyte imbalances if left untreated.
ADH (Antidiuretic Hormone)The brain and kidneys regulate the amount of water excreted by the body. When the blood volume is low, the concentration of solutes in the blood is high. When the hypothalamus senses this low blood volume and increased serum osmolality it synthesizes ADH, a small peptide molecule. The pituitary gland then releases ADH into the bloodstream and causes the kidneys to retain water by concentrating the urine and reducing urine volume. Water retention boosts blood volume and decreases serum osmolality.
Yes. You are right. Addison's disease is caused by deficiency of the secretion of the adrenal cortex.
Failure to meet your nutrients needed may result in a deficiency disease.
Selenium deficiency can lead to a range of health issues, including weakened immune function, increased susceptibility to infections, and impaired thyroid hormone metabolism. It may also result in Keshan disease, a form of cardiomyopathy, and Kashin-Beck disease, which affects bone and joint health. Additionally, low selenium levels can contribute to fertility problems and cognitive decline. Overall, adequate selenium is essential for maintaining various bodily functions and overall health.
diabetes mellitus
water retentionStudies have shown that a deficiency of Vitamin B12 can lead to abnormal neurological and psychiatric.
Iodine deficiency is the most common cause of hypothyroidism worldwide.
hyposecretion is when not enough (hypo=low) of a certain substance (usually a hormone) is being secreted(released) into the bloodstream etc. For example, a hyposecretion of growth hormone would result in that individual in having pituitary-dwarfism.
Malnutrition disorders such as marasmus result from decreased dietary intake of fats/oils and other calories except protein. Malabsorption syndromes such as Tropical Sprue and Celiac's disease can produce fat deficiency symptoms.
