DEFINITION Diabetes Insipidus (DI) is defined as a condition in which urine is not concentrated (urine is dilute or water-like)
In Central Diabetes Insipidus (CDI, also known as Vasopressin-sensitive DI), the pituitary gland fails to produce ADH
In Nephrogenic Diabetes Insipidus (NDI, also known as 'antidiuretic hormone' or Vasopressin-resistant DI), the pituitary gland may be secreting ADH, but the kidneys fail to react to it
The basic symptoms for both disorders are however the same and generally include: Persistent thirst, drinking large amounts of fluids, and urinating frequently Susceptibility to de-hydration and blood electrolyte imbalance(s) A variety of other symptoms which are age and type of DI dependent Diabetes Insipidus is a rare disorder

BBC NEWS | Health | Study suggests 'type 3 diabetes'
Research showing that the brain produces insulin as well as the pancreas points
to a third type of diabetes.
| ----------------- RELATED BBC SITES Last Updated: Monday, 7 March, 2005, 23:19 GMT Study suggests 'type 3 diabetes' The brain is another source of insulin say the researchers Scientists say they may have discovered a previously unknown form of diabetes, after finding the brain produces insulin as well as the pancreas
Unlike other types of diabetes, the form - dubbed type 3 by the US Brown Medical School team - is not thought to affect blood sugar
It raises the possibility of a type 3 diabetes Study author Dr Suzanne de la Monte Type 1 and type 2 diabetes occur when the body is unable to produce or use insulin from the pancreas
The so-called 'type 3' diabetes refers to lower than normal levels of newly discovered brain insulin, which appears to be associated with Alzheimer's disease in some way
Scientists have known for some time that people with diabetes have an increased risk of Alzheimer's disease - by up to 65%
Dr Suzanne de la Monte and colleagues now believe it is down to what they are calling type 3 diabetes
I suspect that the brain insulin itself is not very significant Professor Greg Cole of the University of California, Los Angeles 'These abnormalities do not correspond to type 1 or type 2 diabetes, but reflect a different and more complex disease process that originates in the central nervous system.' Not only does this opens the way for targeted treatment to the brain and changes the way we view Alzheimer's disease, 'it raises the possibility of a type 3 diabetes', she said

FDA Approves New Drug to Treat Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes
Symlin, an injectable medicine to control blood sugar for adults with type 1 and
type 2 diabetes who cannot achieve adequate control of their blood sugars on ...
| FDA Talk Paper T05-08 March 17, 2005 Media Inquiries: 301-827-6242 Consumer Inquiries: 888-INFO-FDA FDA Approves New Drug to Treat Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) today approved Symlin, an injectable medicine to control blood sugar for adults with type 1 and type 2 diabetes
Symlin will be the only therapy for the treatment of type 1 diabetes other than insulin
Patients with type 2 diabetes already have several other types of oral therapies available
Overall Symlin therapy was associated, in patients with both types of diabetes, with improvements in the control of blood glucose and with weight loss
So-called 'tight' control of blood sugar is desirable in all patients with diabetes in order to reduce risks for long-term adverse consequences of the disease, including blindness, kidney disease, and vascular disease
First, the principle risk associated with Symlin therapy is hypoglycemia, and this risk is greatest in patients with type 1 diabetes and in patients with gastroparesis (motility problems of the stomach-a long-term complication of diabetes)

Covers the background, pathophysiology, frequency, causes, medication, and

It is a disproportionately expensive disease; patients with diabetes accounted for 6.2% of the US population in 2002, or 18.2 million people
In that year, the per-capita cost of healthcare was $13, 243 for people with diabetes, while it was $2560 for those without diabetes
This article focuses on the ED evaluation and treatment of the acute and chronic complications of diabetes other than those directly associated with hypoglycemia and severe metabolic disturbances, such as diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and hyperosmolar hyperglycemic nonketotic coma (HNKS)
(Please see, and for more information on these disorders.) Pathophysiology: Type 1 diabetes mellitus can occur at any age and is characterized by the marked inability of the pancreas to secrete insulin because of autoimmune destruction of the beta cells
It commonly occurs in children, with a fairly abrupt onset; however, newer antibody tests have allowed for the identification of more people with the new-onset adult form of type 1 diabetes mellitus called latent autoimmune diabetes of the adult (LADA)
The distinguishing characteristic of a patient with type 1 diabetes is that, if his or her insulin is withdrawn, ketosis and eventually ketoacidosis develop

Cat owners often notice these four classical signs of diabetes mellitus: ravenous appetite, weight loss, increased urination, and increased water consumption
Diabetes mellitus is generally divided into two different types in cats: insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM)], and non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM)]
While diabetes mellitus can affect any cat, it most often occurs in older, obese cats
Burmese cats in New Zealand, Australia, and the United Kingdom are prone to developing to diabetes, but this doesn't appear to be the case in North America
How is diabetes diagnosed? Diabetes mellitus is diagnosed based on the cat's signs, physical examination findings, laboratory test results, and the persistent presence of abnormally high levels of sugar in the blood and urine
Once diabetes has been diagnosed, immediate treatment is necessary

Nephrogenic Diabetes Insipidus - caused when the kidneys do not respond to the ADH that is produced by the pituitary gland
This type of DI may be caused by a congenital defect, drugs, or caused by other metabolic disorders polyuria (excessive urination) polydipsia (excessive drinking) Diagnosis includes ruling out other diseases such as hyperadrenocorticism (Cushing's disease), diabetes mellitus, (in cats), liver disease, pyometra (infection of the uterus), and other disorders
