A condition in which a person is very thirsty and makes large amounts of urine. The most common types of diabetes insipidus are central diabetes insipidus (a pituitary disorder) and nephrogenic diabet [..]

A disorder similar to diabetes mellitus in that it causes symptoms such as increased thirst and increased urine production, but differing in cause, frequency, treatment, and associated complications; diabetes insipidus results from a lack of production of arginine vasopressin (also called antidiuretic hormone or ADH) by the pituitary or a lack of r [..]

A disease associated with inadequate production of or response to antidiuretic hormone. A major clinical sign is production of very large volumes of urine.

Excretion of large amounts of urine of low specific gravity. The inability to concentrate urine.

Metabolic disorder showing excessive thirst and increased urination without the presence of sugar in the urine. See nephrogenic diabetes insipudus.

 - Excretion of large amounts of urine of low specific gravity. The inability to concentrate urine.

(in-SIP-ih-dus) 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 Disease that is characterized by frequent Urination, excretion of large amounts of dilute URINE, and excessive Thirst. Etiologies of diabetes insipidus include deficiency of antidiuretic Hormone (al [..]

A genetic or acquired polyuric disorder characterized by persistent hypotonic urine and Hypokalemia. This condition is due to renal tubular insensitivity to Vasopressin and failure to reduce urine vol [..]

Congenital Nephrogenic Diabetes Insipidus caused by Mutations of the Aquaporin-2 Water channel Gene (AOP2) on Chromosome 12q13.

X-linked congenital Nephrogenic Diabetes Insipidus disorders occurring mostly in males and are caused by one of more than 130 different V2 RECEPTOR Mutations.

A genetic or acquired polyuric disorder caused by a deficiency of Vasopressins secreted by the Neurohypophysis. Clinical signs include the excretion of large volumes of dilute URINE; Hypernatremia; Th [..]

A metabolic disorder caused by a lack of antidiuretic hormone, which leads to production of large amounts of dilute urine and excessive thirst.

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

A much rarer disease than diabetes mellitus, characterised by the production of excessive quantities of dilute urine and consequent great thirst. Although it displays many of the same symptoms as diab [..]
