antidiuretic/nausea

This paper gives an overview of studies investigating endocrine changes in acute nausea and vomiting. The aetiology of nausea and vomiting is not fully understood, but it has been shown that different stress hormones are released into circulation during motion sickness. Studies with animals and

OBJECTIVE To describe a case of the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH) associated with lisinopril therapy. METHODS A 76-year-old white woman who was being treated with lisinopril and metoprolol for hypertension presented with headaches accompanied by nausea and a

We report a case of a seventy-year-old woman with syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) and adrenal insufficiency induced by Rathke's cleft cyst. She experienced nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and headache and disturbance of consciousness induced by hyponatremia at a serum

A 77-year-old woman who had taken a single oral dose of duloxetine subsequently developed a headache and nausea. On the first day, her serum sodium level was 135 mEq/L. She became confused on the third day. Her serum sodium level was 119 mEq/L and her antidiuretic hormone level was 1.9 IU. We

Escitalopram is the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) most recently approved for use in the United States. It is structurally related to citalopram, but is felt to have a more tolerable side-effect profile than its parent compound. Side effects are not generally serious and include

The causes of pituitary apoplexy are unclear. We report a case of pituitary apoplexy presenting with headache and nausea. On June 17th, 1997 a 74-year-old woman had complained of retro-orbital headache, fever and vomiting. A cold was diagnosed for which she recurred medication. In addition to the

BACKGROUND Although the use of opioids during general anaesthesia suppresses stress response to surgery and pain, the effects on antidiuretic hormone (ADH) are controversial. The aim of this study was to find the effects of morphine with either intravenous infusion or epidural route on ADH and other

Digoxin acts at central neural (CNS) as well as peripheral sites after intravenous administration. In contrast, the analog, 3-beta-O(4-amino-4,6-dideoxy-beta-D-galactopyranosyl)-digitoxigenin (ASI-222), cannot cross the blood-brain barrier so it acts only at sites outside the CNS. The effects of

The syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) is characterized by hyponatraemia due to water retention resulting from the persistent release of antidiuretic hormone (vasopressin). It may occur in a variety of malignant and non-malignant conditions, in particular in

The syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone is characterized by production of less than maximally dilute urine in the presence of hypotonic plasma. It may be secondary to malignant disease, central nervous system disorders, or pulmonary disease, among other conditions, or it may

Basaloid squamous cell carcinoma (BSQCC) of the lung is a very rare subtype of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). There have been no reported cases of syndrome of inappropriate anti-diuretic hormone secretion (SIADH) developing concurrently with this tumor. We herein present a case of a 68-year-old

A 55-year-old Japanese man was referred to our hospital because of disturbance of consciousness and hyponatremia. He had been aware of general fatigue, nausea, and headache for two weeks. Tests revealed hyponatremia, plasma hypoosmolarity with urine hyperosmolarity, an elevated level of urine sodium

The syndrome of tumor-induced osteomalacia has been previously thought to occur only in association with mesenchymal tumors, although one report has linked prostatic carcinoma with the syndrome. We report the case of a patient who presented first with the clinical and biochemical features of the
