Nephrogenic diabetes insipidus, cystinosis, and vitamin D.

Nephrogenic diabetes insipidus, cystinosis, and vitamin D.

We describe a patient with early diagnosed cystinosis who presented with nephrogenic diabetes insipidus in addition to proximal tubular dysfunction. Another feature in this patient was abnormally low serum concentration of 24,25 dihydroxy vitamin D3 (24,25(OH)2D3) with normal 25 hydroxy vitamin D3 (25(OH)D3) and relatively low 1,25 dihydroxy vitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3).

[nephrogenic Diabetes Insipidus].

In spite of its rare incidence, the inherited renal tubular disorder nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI) has in the past 10 years attracted the attention of a varied group of medical doctors and basic scientists. With the identification of the two genes involved in NDI, namely the vasopressin type-2 receptor (V2R) and the aquaporin-2 water channel (AQP2) genes, the identification of a large nu...

Lithium-induced nephrogenic diabetes insipidus.

BACKGROUND Lithium can cause nephrogenic diabetes insipidus in up to 20 to 40 percent of patients currently taking the medication, and a subset of these patients will have a persistent concentrating defect long after lithium is discontinued. They are at risk for serious hypernatremia when fluid intake is restricted for any reason. METHODS MEDLINE as used to search the key words "nephrogenic d...
