Abstract: OBJECTIVE Primary polydipsia is characterized by excessive fluid intake which may suppress vasopressin levels. It is speculated that suppressed vasopressin levels lead to a dysregulated hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis as vasopressin co-modulates the HPA axis. However,… read more here.

Abstract: Primary polydipsia associated with hyponatraemia is a potentially life-threatening though often unrecognised condition, induced by different, poorly understood pathophysiological processes. Accordingly, the recently published review by Sailer and colleagues [1] has inspired me to share… read more here.
