What causes diabetes insipidus?

Choice A rationale

Stress incontinence is triggered by an increase in intraabdominal pressure due to actions such as coughing or sneezing. This pressure can overcome the resistance of the urinary sphincter, leading to involuntary leakage of urine.

Choice B rationale

Urge incontinence is characterized by a sudden, intense urge to urinate, followed by an involuntary loss of urine. It’s not typically triggered by increases in intraabdominal pressure.

Choice C rationale

Overflow incontinence is characterized by frequent or constant dribbling of urine due to a bladder that doesn’t empty completely. It’s not typically triggered by increases in intraabdominal pressure.

Choice D rationale

Neurogenic bladder is a condition in which a person lacks bladder control due to a brain, spinal cord, or nerve condition. It’s not typically triggered by increases in intraabdominal pressure. Inflammatory bowel diseaseInflammatory bowel disease Explore

Choice A rationale

Impaction of stool in the large intestine could lead to constipation and discomfort, but it would not typically cause a rigid abdomen in peritonitis.

Choice B rationale

While fluid can cause distension or bloating of the abdomen, it does not typically cause the abdomen to become rigid.

Choice C rationale

Increased gas can cause abdominal distention or bloating, but it does not typically cause the abdomen to become rigid.

Choice D rationale

In peritonitis, inflammation of the peritoneum (the lining of the abdominal cavity) can cause the abdominal muscles to spasm, leading to a rigid abdomen.
