en Limba Engleză Paperback – 19 iun 2023
Genetic Steroid Disorders, Second Edition targets adult and pediatric endocrinologists, clinical geneticists, genetic counselors, reproductive endocrinologists, neonatologists, urologists, and psychoendocrinologists. It is designed to assist these specialists in the diagnosis and treatment of steroid disorders. This revision includes a new chapter on "Gonadotropins, Obesity and Bone" and new research on non-invasive prenatal diagnosis with cell-free DNA. Chapters are thoroughly updated covering steroid disorders, the genetic bases for the disorder and case presentations, This definitive reference belongs in every medical library!

  • Presents a comprehensive, translational look at all aspects of genetic steroid disorders in one reference work
  • Provides a common language for endocrinologists, geneticists, molecular pathologists, and genetic counselors to discuss and diagnose genetic steroid disorders Saves clinicians and researchers time in quickly accessing the very latest details on genetic tests and diagnoses as opposed to searching through thousands of journal articles
  • Highlights significant discoveries with clinical relevance, presenting insight into which medications to use based on the genetic makeup of a patient
  • Teaches the best strategies and most effective use of genetic information in the patient counseling setting

Recenzii

Praise for the First Edition:
"Appropriate for both novice and experienced researchers, this collection demonstrates that the genetic basis has been located for each steroid disorder causing clinical and bioclinical abnormalities in patients. Ten of the 31 chapters describe the symptoms, cause, diagnosis, and treatment of the many disorders resulting from congenital adrenal hyperplasia…the definitive treatise belongs in every medical library." --ProtoView.com, February 2014

"[A] comprehensive review of the genetic basis of steroid disorders,.... [that] gives a detailed overview of the mechanisms of steroid pathophysiology and each chapter addresses a different enzymatic defect.... All levels of clinicians from students to attendings in pediatric or adult endocrinology, family medicine, urology or genetics would benefit from this textbook.... This edition discusses in detail the clinical and biochemical abnormalities of steroid enzyme alterations. The chapters on congenital adrenal hyperplasia even go further to elaborate on the topic of bone health and psychosocial health in these individuals. The chapters on geographic distribution of disorders as well as controversial topics were interesting and practical topics.... There are no other comparable textbooks on this topic." --©Doody’s Review Service, 2024, Mindy Li, MD (Rush University Medical Center)
