What condition is commonly linked with inadequate secretion of ADH?

The condition commonly linked with inadequate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (ADH) is Diabetes Insipidus. This disorder is characterized by an inability of the kidneys to concentrate urine due to insufficient levels of ADH, which is responsible for regulating water retention in the body. In cases of Diabetes Insipidus, either the body does not produce enough ADH (central diabetes insipidus) or the kidneys do not respond adequately to the hormone (nephrogenic diabetes insipidus). This leads to the excretion of large volumes of dilute urine, resulting in symptoms such as increased thirst and frequent urination.

The other conditions listed do not have a direct link to ADH secretion or its regulation. Diabetes Mellitus primarily involves insulin and glucose metabolism rather than ADH. Hypotonic urine is commonly a consequence of excessive water intake or other forms of ADH mishandling and isn't a primary condition caused by inadequate ADH secretion. Anorexia, while it can affect various metabolic processes, is not specifically tied to ADH levels in the way Diabetes Insipidus is.
