In recent years, the clinical evolution of thyroid diseases has been studied exhaustively as new discoveries have been made about thyroid malfunction and the effective management of patients. Thyroid Diseases presents a comprehensive exposition of a range of disorders caused by thyroid dysfunction. With contributions by well-known experts in the field, the book is the first compendium in several decades to assemble a vast amount of data and research into one volume.
Following a methodological format, each chapter explores a different malady or condition. After defining the dysfunction or disease, the text presents the epidemiology, etiopathogenesis, clinical features, first and second level tests for diagnosis, first and second line therapies, prognosis, and recommendations for follow-up.
Highlighted topics include:
Transient forms of hyper- and hypothyroidism
Subclinical hyper- and hypothyroidism
Thyroid dysfunction during gestation and postpartum
The influence of iodine on the thyroid during pregnancy
The importance of drugs that modify thyroid function
Thyroid disrupters that affect thyroid homeostasis
The bimodal and/or transient development of some thyroid diseases
The evolution of diagnosis, priorities of therapies, and lifelong monitoring of patients
All of the contributors to this text pursued long periods of training in elite research laboratories. They are active investigators and well known in the international arena. The information presented in this volume is invaluable for practicing clinicians and those training in internal medicine, endocrinology, surgery, and other areas of medicine.

Описание: The Second Edition of this comprehensive reference combines a strong scientific base with a clinical focus to address the principal disorders of bone and mineral metabolism, including osteoporosis, kidney stone formation, abnormal serum mineral levels, Paget's disease, and other conditio. The contributors examine normal bone structure and mineral metabolism throughout the life cycle, explain the mechanisms underlying each disorder, and provide succinct guidance on evaluation and management. This edition describes recently introduced drugs, thoroughly reviews powerful new treatments for osteoporosis and nephrolithiasis and also features completely rewritten chapters on stone formation. Over than 500 illustrations complement the text plus over 150 tables help readers find needed information at a glance.

The popular narrative of "globesity" posits that the adoption of Western diets is intensifying obesity and diabetes in the Global South and that disordered metabolisms are the embodied consequence of globalization and excess. In Metabolic Living Harris Solomon recasts these narratives by examining how people in Mumbai, India, experience the porosity between food, fat, the body, and the city. Solomon contends that obesity and diabetes pose a problem of absorption between body and environment. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork carried out in Mumbai's home kitchens, metabolic disorder clinics, food companies, markets, and social services, he details the absorption of everything from snack foods and mangoes to insulin, stress, and pollutants. As these substances pass between the city and the body and blur the two domains, the onset and treatment of metabolic illness raise questions about who has the power to decide what goes into bodies and when food means life. Evoking metabolism as a condition of contemporary urban life and a vital political analytic, Solomon illuminates the lived predicaments of obesity and diabetes, and reorients our understanding of chronic illness in India and beyond.

Описание:
In the historical record there is abundant evidence that obesity was a medical and health concern as long as medicine has been practiced. The idea of diet and exercise are bulwarks in the fight against obesity in history from the time of Hippocrates to the 16th century--a span of 2,000 years. However, our scientific understanding of this problem is only a little over 200 years old. An examination of the root cause of what many consider the obesity epidemic, A Guide to Obesity and the Metabolic Syndrome traces the origins and types of obesity and its treatment.
Examining in detail the developing treatment for obesity, this book provides:
A history of obesity, including treatment, proposed causes, and perceptions
An examination of the causes and problems associated with obesity
A discussion of lifestyle, diet, exercise, and treatment strategies
A detailed look at the medications and surgeries available for obesity
The fact that we have an epidemic of obesity today that is covering the globe suggests that the strategically simple ideas of eating less and exercising more, ideas that require commitment and personal involvement by the individual, have not been very successful. As we move forward in trying to understand this problem, we need to be alert to strategies and tactics that may not require individual motivation and commitment--history has shown that they do not work well. This book supplies guidance on developing and designing novel strategic interventions against obesity and metabolic disorders.
Описание: Thyroid disorders affect many people worldwide, but luckily, they can often be avoided or cured quite simply through making some dietary changes. This book explains to you the different thyroid disorders out there, and the signs and symptoms of each.
