what are the two major compartments of the adrenal gland?

adrenal cortex and adrenal medulla
Discuss the pathophysiology of panhypopituitarism.

Describes the absence of all pituitary hormones. Loss of
adrenocorticotropic hormone secretion with decreased cortisol is a life-
threatening disorder.
,Treatment for Cushing disease
Give this one a try later!
Treatment is specific for the cause of hypercorticoadrenalism and includes
medication, radiation, and surgery. Differentiation between pituitary
ectopic and adrenal causes is essential for effective treatment.
Management of diabetes, hypertension, and coronary disease is also
essential.
treatment of thyrotoxic crisis

Management includes propylthiouracil (an antithyroid drug) to reduce
thyroid hormone levels, beta-blockers to block the catecholamine effects,
steroids, and supportive care. Once the crisis has passed, indivs. with
thyroid storm usually do well and can then receive definitive care for the
underlying hyperthyroid condition.

The vasopressin-degrading enzyme vasopressinase is increased. Clinical
manifestations are usually mild and do not require treatment.
Are the thyroid hormones T3 and T4 increased or decreased in hyperthyroidism?

increased
Neurogenic (central) Diabetes Insipidus

the inadequate synthesis and release of ADH and results from tumors,
trauma, infarction, or infection of the hypothalamus, posterior pituitary
gland, or pituitary stalk. In rare cases, results from genetic disorders of the
pituitary gland.
Is the urine diluted or concentrated in diabetes insipidus?
Give this one a try later!
diluted (decreased urine osmolality)
, How are calcium and phosphate levels affected in hyperparathyroidism?
Give this one a try later!
Increased calcium
Graves' is what type of hypersensitivity disorder?
Give this one a try later!
Type II autoimmune hypersensitivity, tissue specific (that includes ORGANS
such as the THYROID)
What are the clinical results and clinical manifestations of diabetes insipidus?
Give this one a try later!
Complain of constant thirst with polydipsia, polyuria, and nocturia.
Restriction of fluid intake can result in severe increases in serum osmolarity,
causing neurologic changes, seizures, and cardiovascular collapse and
shock.
