Cerebral salt wasting syndrome (CSWS) also presents with hyponatremia, there are signs of dehydration for which reason the management is diametrically opposed to SIADH. Importantly CSWS can be associated with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) which may require fluid supplementation rather than restriction to prevent brain damage.
Normal volume hyponatremia, wherein the increase in ADH is secondary to either physiologic but excessive ADH release (as occurs with nausea or severe pain) or inappropriate and non-physiologic secretion of ADH, that is, syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone hypersecretion (SIADH).
Patients with severe or life-threatening hyponatremia complications (typically those with a rapid drop in blood sodium, and/or those with certain other risk factors such as recent brain injury or ...

The term "cerebral hyponatremia" was suggested in the work of Epstein, et al. 1961. Inappropriate release of endogenous vasopressin is probably responsible for hyponatremia in tuberculous meningitis. Inability to excrete water normally is also a feature of the salt wasting of certain hyponatremic patients with pulmonary tuberculosis.
SIADH causes HYPOnatremia not HYPERnatremia, since the nephrons don't allow the loss of as much water as they should. They still lose the sodium, so since the sodium level drops but the water level doesn't drop as fast, HYPOnatremia delvelops. As far as I could see, the article does call, it HYPOnatremia, which is correct.
Last month Brooke Shields shared her harrowing tale of having suffered a seizure when overconsumption of water led to a dangerous condition called hyponatremia, which is when one has a low sodium ...
Hyponatremia means that the concentration of sodium in the blood is too low. It is generally defined as a concentration lower than 135 mEq/L. [ 3 ] This relatively common electrolyte disorder can indicate the presence of a disease process, but in the hospital setting is more often due to administration of Hypotonic fluids.
