Diabetes insipidus: a physiologic approach to diagnosis
Abstract:
Diabetes insipidus can be delineated in the context of the normal physiology of water metabolism. This approach highlights the common pathway taken by the variety of diseases that can progress to an insufficiency of antidiuretic hormone (ADH) and to diabetes insipidus. A simple diagnostic approach uses homeostatic pathways to separate diabetes insipidus from the other polyuric states. New developments in the biochemical alteration of ADH have improved the ability to individualize hormonal replacement and promise better therapy in the near future.

Diabetes Mellitus: Overview and Type I Subtype
Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease in which the immune system mistakenly attacks and destroys the insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas. As a result, the body is unable to produce sufficient insulin, and individuals with...
Pathophysiology of Diabetes
Type 1 diabetes is characterized by autoimmune-mediated destruction of pancreatic β cells, with environmental factors potentially triggering this process in genetically susceptible individuals. Despite many not having a family history, certain genes increase susceptibility, suggesting a...
