"In 1957 the celebrated American nephrologist William B Schwartz (1923-2009) 8 and colleagues (including the American endocrinologist Frederic Bartter ((19141983) 7), first described the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion. ‘Inappropriate’ was employed because of the observed loss of the normal linkage between ADH secretion and serum osmolality 4,5."

"The syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH or SIAD) (also known as Schwartz-Bartter syndrome) was initially described in patients with lung cancer who developed hyponatraemia associated with continued urinary sodium loss. The result is often dilutional hyponatraemia in which the sodium remains normal but total body fluid increases."

Line 1:91 · 'SIADH' has no definition. Spell it out if it's unfamiliar to the audience.
