Two men are diagnosed with diabetes insipidus. One didn’t have the disorder until he suffered a stroke. The other had a withstood the condition all his life, and it had never responded to exogenous ADH despite the presence of normal ADH receptors. What might be the cause of the diabetes insipidus in the two men?

Hi, can you help me with the following multiple choice questions: Thanks!! Z. is a 27-year-old man with readily apparent thyroid goiter. He comments that he gained 5 pounds in the last year, and you notice that his weight is approximately 20 pounds greater than normal. What can you conclude about this patient’s thyroid function? the goiter indicates that he is hyperthyroid the combination of excessive weight and goiter indicates that he is hypothyroid the combination of excessive weight and goiter indicates that he is hyperthyroid he is probably euthyroid, because the weight gain eliminates the possibility of hyperthyroidism it is not possible to make a conclusion from this information provided. For an answer to be correct, both the symptom and the explanation must be correct. Which answer is incorrect? the resting heart rate increases because circulating levels of catecholamines increase. Excess thyroid hormones stimulate the release of more adrenal catecholamines. myocardial…

Diabetes insipidus has been identified in two males. One person did not have the condition until he had a stroke. The other had lived with the condition his whole life, and despite the existence of normal ADH receptors, it had never reacted to exogenous ADH.
