Elevated anti-diuretic (ADH) levels and hyponatremia is seen with which of the following disorders?

A. Diabetes Insipidus is associated with reduced ADH levels, leading to excessive urination and dehydration, not hyponatremia.

B. Acromegaly results from excessive growth hormone (not ADH) secretion, causing abnormal growth of tissues and bones.

C. Addison's disease involves the adrenal glands and the insufficient production of cortisol and aldosterone, not ADH-related hyponatremia.

D. Syndrome of Inappropriate Antidiuretic Hormone (SIADH).

SIADH is a disorder characterized by the excessive release of antidiuretic hormone (ADH) from the posterior pituitary gland, leading to increased water reabsorption by the kidneys. This results in diluted blood and hyponatremia (low sodium levels) due to the retention of water. Patients with SIADH often experience fluid overload and related symptoms.

A.Growth of that leg may be affected.

When a fracture occurs near the epiphyseal plate of a long bone, such as the femur, there is a risk of damage to the growth plate. The growth plate (epiphyseal plate) is responsible for longitudinal bone growth in children. If the growth plate is injured or damaged during the fracture, it can potentially lead to growth disturbances and affect the growth of that leg.

B. Risk for infection at this location is increased: While any fracture has a risk of infection, the proximity to the epiphyseal plate doesn't necessarily increase the risk of infection.

C. Long bones contain marrow, which increases the risk for anemia: The presence of bone marrow in long bones is unrelated to the potential effects on bone growth after a fracture near the epiphyseal plate.

D. Fracture repair will necessitate prolonged traction: The use of traction for fracture repair can vary depending on the type and location of the fracture. However, the primary concern with a fracture near the epiphyseal plate is its potential impact on bone growth.
