Correct Answer is B

Explanation

Choice A rationale: This test is not specific for confirming osteoporosis.

Choice B rationale: This test is called a bone mineral density (BMD) test or a dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scan. It measures how much calcium and other minerals are in a segment of bone.

Choice C rationale: This test is not specific for confirming osteoporosis.

Choice D rationale: This test is not specific for confirming osteoporosis.

A. Syndrome of Inappropriate Antidiuretic Hormone (SIADH) B. Cushing's syndrome/disease C. Adrenal insufficiency D. Diabetes Insipidus (DI)

Correct Answer is A

Explanation

Choice A rationale: These lab findings, particularly concentrated urine (high specific gravity) and hyponatremia, are consistent with SIADH, where excessive ADH secretion leads to water retention and dilutional hyponatremia.

Choice B rationale: While it can affect sodium levels, Cushing's syndrome typically results in hypernatremia or normal sodium levels rather than hyponatremia.

Choice C rationale: Usually presents with hyponatremia but not specifically with high urine specific gravity or hematocrit.

Choice D rationale: DI is associated with high serum sodium and low urine specific gravity due to excessive excretion of dilute urine.
