Question

Diabetes insipidus is a condition in which there is a malfunction involving antidiuretic hormone-ADC (also known as vasopressin). There are two forms of the disease. In central diabetes insipidus (CDI), the hypothalamus cannot secrete the hormone ADH, while in nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI), the kidneys become insensitive to ADH. At left below are a list of symptoms. Drag each symptom to the appropriate box at right to indicate whether it would occur:1) only in a patient with CDI, (2) only in a patient with NDI, (3) in patients with either condition, or (4) in neither type of patient. CDI patients only Both patient types Large thirst and water intake ADH levels above normal Abnormally high urine osmolarity Injecting ADH significantly increases urine osmolarity Glucose in the urine ADH levels below normal NDI patients only Neither patient type Abnormally large urine volume Injecting ADH does not change urine osmolarity Reset
