panhypopituitarism. - ✔✔term correctly associated with the lack of all (PAN = all) anterior || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||




pituitary hormones: including cortisol deficiency from lack of adrenocorticotrophic
|| || || || || || || || ||




hormone (ACTH), thyroid deficiency from lack of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), and
|| || || || || || || || || || ||




loss of secondary sex characteristics from lack of FSH and LH
|| || || || || || || || || ||




Hyperpituitarism: Primary Adenoma - ✔✔•Usually benign slow-growing || || || || || || ||




•Arise from cells of the anterior pituitary
|| || || || || ||




•Local expansion may cause both neurologic and secretory defects.
|| || || || || || || ||




•Secretes the hormone of the cell type from which it arose, without regard to physiologic
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||




needs and without benefit of regulatory feedback mechanisms.
|| || || || || || || ||




•Pressure produced is also associated with decreased function of neighboring anterior
|| || || || || || || || || || ||




pituitary cells, which results in hyposecretion of other anterior pituitary hormones.
|| || || || || || || || || || ||

clinical manifestations of hypothyroidism - ✔✔Decreased energy metabolism

Constipation

Bradycardia

production of TH || ||




Hypothyroidism Causes in adults - ✔✔Autoimmune thyroiditis (Hashimoto disease) || || || || || || || ||




Iatrogenic loss of thyroid tissue after surgical or radioactive treatment for

Thyroid Carcinoma - ✔✔1.the most common endocrine malignancy;
|| || || || || || || ||




2. Exposure to ionizing radiation, especially during childhood, is the most consistent causal
|| || || || || || || || || || || || ||




factor.

3. Most individuals with this have normal T3 and T4 levels and are therefore euthyroid.
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || ||




4. typically is discovered as a small thyroid nodule or as a metastatic tumor most commonly
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||




occurring in the regional lymph nodes, lungs, brain, or bone
|| || || || || || || || ||




5. Changes in voice and swallowing and difficulty in breathing are related to tumor growth
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||




impinging on the trachea or esophagus || || || || ||




6. diagnosis is generally made by fine-needle aspiration of a thyroid nodule
|| || || || || || || || || || ||




Diabetes insipidus - ✔✔1. ADH "water" || || || || || ||




2. Result of insufficient ADH.
|| || || ||




3. must be distinguished from other polyuric states, including diabetes mellitus.
|| || || || || || || || || || ||




4. The basic criteria for the diagnosis
|| || || || || || ||




|| a. polyuria (sign)
|| ||




|| b. polydipsia or thirst (symptom)
|| || || ||




|| c. hypernatremia
||




|| d. high serum osmolality (300 mOsm or more)
|| || || || || || ||




Diabetes mellitus - ✔✔dehydration during a state of insulin deficiency. Polyuria and
|| || || || || || || || || || || ||




dehydration result from the osmotic diuresis associated with hyperglycemia|| || || || || || || ||




Diabetic ketoacidosis - ✔✔•Dehydration during a state of profound insulin deficiency.
|| || || || || || || || || || ||

infections, medications, nonadherence to diabetes treatment, or coexisting disease.

• is more commonly seen with type 2 diabetes.

• differs from DKA in the degree of insulin deficiency and the degree of fluid deficiency.
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||




• is characterized by a lack of ketosis.
|| || || || || || ||




SIADH: syndrome of antidiuretic hormone - ✔✔•High levels of ADH in the absence of
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || ||




normal physiologic stimuli for its release.

•Associated with ectopic secretion of ADH by several types of tumor cells.
