  • congenital defects, disruption in blood flow, decline in function, atrophy, receptor defects

    What are causes of Hypofunction-Endocrine disorders? (5)

  • excessive stimulation, hyperplasia, hormone-producing tumor

    What are causes of Hyperfunction-Endocrine disorders? (3)

  • primary disorders

    -originate in the target gland responsible for producing the hormone

  • stimulating hormones; releasing factors

    Secondary disorders involve a functional target gland with defective levels of _______ & ________.

  • hypothalmic dysfunction; pituitary & target gland understimulation

    Tertiary disorders arise from _______ & _________

  • receptor-associated disorders, intracellular disorders

    Target-cell disorder is caused by? (2)

  • intracelluar disorders

    -characterized by inadequate synthesis of second messengers, decreased number of intracellular receptors, altered affinity for hormones, new mRNA, absence of substrates for new protein synthesis.

  • an absence of GnRH

    Deficiency of hypothalamic hormones in adult women & men are both characterized by _________.

  • Hypothalamic hypothyroidism

    -absence of TRH

  • absence of GH regulatory hormones

    Low levels of growth hormone results in what?

  • the absence of CRH

    The failure of ACTH to respond to low serum cortisol levels is because

  • b

    Metastatic lesions are ______.

    a) primary tumors

    b) secondary tumors

    c) functional tumors

  • c

    Tumors that secrete pituitary hormones.

    a) primary tumors

    b) secondary tumors

    c) functional tumors

    d) nonfunctional tumors

    Tumors that do not secrete hormones at all.

    a) primary tumors

    b) secondary tumors

    c) functional tumors

    d) nonfunctional tumors

  • SIADH

    - a disorder that is characterized by high levels of ADH in the absence normal physiologic stimuli for its release.

  • decreased aldosterone production, hyponatremia, suppression of renin, hypo-osmolality

    Elevated levels of ADH can result in?

    Rapid decrease of serum Na+ falls under what range?

  • below 110-115 mmol

    Slow decrease of serum Na+ falls under what range?

  • diabetes insipidus

    -insufficiency of ADH leading to polyuria and polydipsia

    a) neurogenic

    b) nephrogenic

    c) psychogenic

    Which type of diabetes insipidus results in an inadequate response to ADH?

    a) neurogenic

    b) nephrogenic

    c) psychogenic

  • c

    Which type of diabetes insipidus results from extremely large volumes of fluid intake that leads to inhibition of ADH?

    a) neurogenic

    b) nephrogenic

    c) psychogenic

  • plasma osmolality; urine specific gravity

    Diabetes insipidus leads to an increase in ________ and a decrease in _______.
