For further information why not contact; What is cranial Diabetes Insipidus (DI)? It is a disease characterised by the passing excessive amount of urine due to the under production of Anti Diuretic Hormone (ADH), which is produced by the HYPOTHALAMUS and is stored and released by the PITUITARY. What is the Hypothalamus? It is a part of the brain, which control the functions of the pituitary gland. What is the pituitary? It is a small pea size gland situated in a hollow bony pouch, at the base of the brain, at the back of the bridge of the nose. It is the master gland of the endocrine system and controls the functions of the other endocrine glands. What is Anti Diuretic Hormone and what are the functions? This hormone controls and regulates the fluid balance of the body. It is produced by the HYPOTHALAMUS and is stored and released by the PITUITARY. When released into the blood circulation it travels to the kidneys. You have two kidneys which cleanse one cup volume of fluid (150mls) each minute. ADH makes the kidneys reabsorb the fluid passing through the kidneys. Without ADH you would pass plenty of urine day and night as the kidneys have to rely on other systems to try and reabsorb fluid but these are not as effective as ADH What symptoms does the patient have with DI?

It is characterized by a deficiency of the hormone vasopressin (anti-diuretic hormone [ADH]), which is produced in the posterior lobe of the pituitary gland. The lack of effect of this hormone on the kidney causes excretion of excessive quantities of very dilute (but otherwise normal) urine. Excessive thirst and urination are the major symptoms of this disorder.

Nephrogenic diabetes insipidus involves a defect in the kidney tubules (the portion of the kidneys that causes water to be excreted or reabsorbed).

Home All Health Reference Condition Guides Healthy Living ... Metabolic Disorders Diabetes insipidus Question: Can you tell me more about diabetes insipidus? How is it different from diabetes mellitus? Pat / Minnesota Answer: Diabetes insipidus (DI) is a rare condition in which the kidneys are unable to conserve water, leading to increased urination and excessive thirst. Although diabetes insipidus and diabetes mellitus have similar names and symptoms, they're not related. DI has two causes. The most common cause is a deficiency of anti-diuretic hormone (ADH, also called vasopressin). Doctors refer to this as central DI. ADH is made in a part of the brain called the hypothalamus and stored in the pituitary gland. Most people develop central DI from a disease or injury involving the hypothalamus or pituitary gland. A less common cause of DI is failure of the kidneys to respond to ADH. Doctors call this nephrogenic DI. This may result from: Kidney disorders Metabolic disorders A side effect of certain medications such as lithium Rarely, nephrogenic DI is inherited.

Diabetes insipidus is a condition that results from insufficient production of the antidiuretic hormone (ADH), a hormone that helps the kidneys, and body, conserve the correct amount of water. Diabetes insipidus may also occur when the kidneys do not respond properly to normal levels of ADH. The disease is actually categorized into two groups: central diabetes insipidus - insufficient production or secretion of ADH; usually a result of a problem in the brain or central nervous system. nephrogenic diabetes insipidus - lack of kidney response to normal levels of ADH. Normally, the antidiuretic hormone controls the kidneys' output of urine. It is secreted by the pituitary gland to decrease the amount of urine output so that dehydration does not occur. Diabetes insipidus, however, causes excessive thirst and excessive production of very diluted urine. What causes diabetes insipidus?

Prevention Diabetes insipidus Definition Diabetes insipidus is caused by the inability of the kidneys to conserve water, which leads to frequent urination and pronounced thirst. Causes Diabetes insipidus (DI) is an uncommon condition that occurs when the kidneys are unable to conserve water as they perform their function of filtering blood. The amount of water conserved is controlled by antidiuretic hormone ( ADH , also called vasopressin). ADH is a hormone produced in a region of the brain called the hypothalamus. It is then stored and released from the pituitary gland, a small gland at the base of the brain. DI caused by a lack of ADH is called central diabetes insipidus. When DI is caused by failure of the kidneys to respond to ADH, the condition is called nephrogenic diabetes insipidus. The major symptoms of diabetes insipidus are excessive urination and extreme thirst. The sensation of thirst stimulates patients to drink large amounts of water to compensate for water lost in the urine. Central diabetes insipidus is caused by damage to the hypothalamus or pituitary gland as a result of surgery, infection
