MSH: A genetic or acquired polyuric disorder characterized by persistent hypotonic urine and HYPOKALEMIA. This condition is due to renal tubular insensitivity to VASOPRESSIN and failure to reduce urine volume. It may be the result of mutations of genes encoding VASOPRESSIN RECEPTORS or aquaporin-2 (AQUAPORINS); KIDNEY DISEASES; adverse drug effects; or complications from PREGNANCY.,CSP: polyuric disorder characterized by normal rates of renal filtration and solute excretion, but a persistent hypotonic urine due to the failure of renal tubules to respond to antidiuretic hormones, such as vasopressin, to reduce urine volume; tubular insensitivity to vasopressin can result from genetic defects, diseases, drug effects, or may occur with pregnancy.,NCI: Diabetes insipidus caused by insensitivity of the kidneys to antidiuretic hormone.
