✅ Copeptin increased in healthy adults & primary polydipsia, but not in AVP deficiency.
❌ Urea & copeptin correlation? Weak.

What fun to teach fellow endocrinologist about #hyponatremia and #avp-deficiency together with prof. Mark Sherlock at the Erasmus Endocrinology cursus!
Being the broad specialist he is, Mark then went on to rock the plenary lecture on adrenal incidentalomas 💪😎
