|
|
diabetes insipidus
signs and symptoms |
-poslyuria
-wxcessive thirst -dehydration: weakness, fever, mental confusion, prostration |
|
|
Euthryroid goiter
Signs and symtoms |
-can appear as a small nodule or as a huge , swollen mass on the anterior surface of the neck
-can supress the esophagus or trachea |
|
|
Diabetes Mwllitus
|
Characterized by hyperglycemia resulting from impaired insulin secreation and/or effectiveness
|
|
|
diabetes mellitus
(treatment) |
-control blood glucose levels
-monitor diet, insulin injections -hypoglycemic drugs for type2 |
|
|
diabetes insipidus
diagnosis |
-urinalysis will reveal colorless urine w/ low osmolality
|
|
|
Euthryroid goiter
diagnosis |
-based on thyroid gland enlargment in the presennce of normal hormone levels
|
|
|
Type 1
insulin dependent |
-10-15% of all cases
-hyperglycemia -requires chronic insulin treatment -usually begins in childhood -usually from a genetically determined, immune mediated destruction of beta cells. |
|
|
Diabetes insipidus
|
polyuria and excessive thirst
|
|
|
euthryroid goiter(simple goiter)
|
an enlargement of the thyroid gland due to diminished thyroid hormone production w/out clinical hypothyroidism
|
|
|
Euthryoid goiter
treatment |
-hormone replacement therapy or iodine supplementation
|
|
|
Type 2
non-insulin dependent |
-hyperglycemia
-usually in patients over 30 -commonly associated w/ obesity -genetic factors appear to be a major determinant -hyper results from both impaired insulin secreatory responses and decreased insulin effectiveness |
|
|
diabetes insipidus
Etiology |
-almost half of the cases are idiopathic
-other half attributed to head trauma resulting in damage to the pitutarygland or hypothalimus -causes insufficient secreation of antidiuretic hormone(ADH) -this allows excessive water to be excreated by the kidneys |
|
|
Euthryroid goiter
etiology |
-thyroid gland tissue enlanlarges in order to compensate for an insufficient secreation of thyroid hormones
-sometimes related to a dietary insufficient secreation of iodine -in many cases, the condition is idiopathic |
