I think there is increase concentration of ecf and diluted urine because there is no relese of ADH so there is increase urine which is diluted and leave concentrated plasma ecf behind

both pri polydipsia and neurogenic DI ve decreased ADH so, both r ch by large vol of dilute urine => urine vol is inc and osmolarity is decreased diff. b/w the 2 is pri polydipsia is hyposmolar i.e. ecf vol is inc and osmolarity is decreased icf vol is inc and osm is dec ( bcoz of excess water intake => ecf inc and osm decreases => icf vol inc and osm decreases) central DI is hyperosmolar i.e ecf vol is dec and osm is inc icf vol is dec and osm is inc (dec ADH => inc dilute urine => dec ecf vol and inc ecf osm => dec icf vol and inc icf osm)
