  The subtle humor in this excellent video is great.    "...is, unsurprisingly made up of cells, which is a common trait among living things..."  Thank you so much!

  I wish 90% of the physicians and specialists nowadays were as thorough and educated as you (whomever created this video slideshow). I cannot begin to share how many doctors and PA&apos;s have missed the correlation bwtn low sodium levels, pituitary/hypothalamus dysfunction, plasma osmolarity, urine osmolality, and the overall symptoms indicative of probable(?) SIADH!! <br>Keep up the amazing work!!!

  great, but should add a warning about correcting hyponartimia too rapidly (CPM).

  I was recently diagnosed with SIADH and a small adenoma was found in my pituitary gland, aling with an intussusception in my small bowel. My sodium level went down to 112 and had to spend 3 days in ICU. Every doctor tells me they can&apos;t believe I am alive. It&apos;s an absolutely awful feeling!

  Excellent explanation of a difficult concept . Thank you. A summarizing note with a quick differential diagnosis between SIDH , Dehydration and Diabetes insipidus &nbsp;based on serum Na , Serum osmolarity and Urine osmolarity ,would be great to help student answering MCQ in exams.
