diabetes insipidus teriminin İngilizce İngilizce sözlükte anlamı
A disease characterized by excretion of large amount of severely diluted urine, which cannot be reduced when fluid intake is reduced. It is generally related to a tumor or insult to the pituitary gland, where the hormonal signals the pituitary gives to the kidneys break down, and the kidneys do not conserve water, but express all water as urine. This is a rather rare disease
a problem with water balance in the body causing excess urine production and great thirst, due to pituitary-hypothalamic damage in the brain Ordinary diabetes, which has the same symptoms, is due to insufficient insulin production by the pancreas
a rare form of diabetes resulting from a deficiency of vasopressin (the pituitary hormone that regulates the kidneys); characterized by the chronic excretion of large amounts of pale dilute urine which results in dehydration and extreme thirst
the most serious type of diabetes; diabetes insipidus is caused by lesions in the hypothalamus or between the pituitary gland and the hypothalamus
Endocrine disorder causing extreme thirst and excessive production of very dilute urine, apparently due to lack of antidiuretic hormone (vasopressin, which regulates the kidney's water conservation and urine production) or failure of the kidney tubules to respond to it. Injections of synthetic vasopressin are effective if the hormone is lacking but not if the response is absent. Disorders of the hypothalamus are one cause of diabetes insipidus
A condition in which blurred vision and a central scotomo (blind spot) appear in one eye It is treated with the hormone vasopressin
a condition characterized by frequent and heavy urination, excessive thirst, and an overall feeling of weakness This condition may be caused by a defect in the pituitary gland or in the kidney In diabetes insipidus, blood glucose levels are normal
a disorder of the pituitary gland characterized by intense thirst and by the excretion of large amounts of urine
Excretion of large amounts of urine of low specific gravity The inability to concentrate urine
