Idiopathic edema is characterized by impaired water excretion, particularly in the upright posture. Indirect evidence has shown that antidiuretic hormone is involved in this disease. For this reason, we measured urinary arginine vasopressin by radioimmunoassay before and during water loading (15
Immersion pulmonary edema (IPE) is a misdiagnosed environmental illness caused by water immersion, cold, and exertion. IPE occurs typically during SCUBA diving, snorkeling, and swimming. IPE is sometimes associated with myocardial injury and/or loss of consciousness in water, which may be fatal. IPE
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the relationship between the plasma antidiuretic hormone (p-ADH) level, electrocochleogram (ECoG), and the glycerol test in patients with endolymphatic hydrops (ELH).
METHODS
The subjects were 60 patients, including 51 with Ménière's disease (except for cochlear Ménière's
A 61-year-old man had hyponatremia (serum Na 112 mmol/L), which was associated with disturbance of consciousness. Therefore, administration of hypertonic saline was commenced. Eventually he was diagnosed with the syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH). Hypertonic saline
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the relationship between leg edema, nocturnal urine volume (NUV), and the secretion of antidiuretic hormone (ADH) during the night, and to investigate the principal factors affecting nocturnal polyuria in older men.
METHODS
A total of 74 male inpatients more than 50 years of
Plasma antidiuretic hormone (p-ADH) concentrations were determined with a radioimmunoassay, using a reversed-phase C18 silica column, in 300 patients with vertigo, dizziness and/or deafness; 119 of them had a diagnosis of Menière's disease. The p-ADH level was significantly elevated in patients with
delta-Aminolevulinic acid dehydratase deficiency porphyria (ALAD porphyria, ADP) with syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) in a 69-year-old woman is reported. The patient was admitted to our hospital complaining of slight cough with low-grade fever, and treated with
A case of hyponatremia following the first course of systemic adjuvant chemotherapy with cisplatin (CDDP) and 5-FU in a previously treated patient with esophageal cancer is reported. A 61-year-old man was admitted to our hospital for adjuvant chemotherapy after transthoracic esophagectomy and
We report a case of consciousness disorder following the fourth course of chemotherapy with cisplatin (CDDP) and 5- fluorouracil (5-FU) in a patient with esophageal cancer. A 74-year-old man was admitted to our hospital to receive chemotherapy for esophageal cancer. Six days after chemotherapy, the
