Insulin Resistance and Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome: Pathogenesis, Evaluation, and Treatment: Contemporary Endocrinology

Editat de Evanthia Diamanti-Kandarakis, John E. Nestler, Dimitrios Panidis, Renato Pasquali
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 9 noi 2010
Despite dizzyingly fast-paced advances over the past two decades, even the definition of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) remains in dispute. Insulin Resistance and Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome: Pathogenesis, Evaluation, and Treatment highlights the recent transition of PCOS from an infertility disorder with a diagnosis based on ovarian tissue histology to a more complex clinical entity, a metabolic disorder in which insulin resistance plays a central role.  With an expert panel of authors, each chapter provides an up-to-date and balanced overview of PCOS, paying special attention to the central role of insulin resistance in the syndrome’s pathogenesis and in the management of its reproductive and metabolic abnormalities.
Comprehensive and thought-provoking, Insulin Resistance and Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome: Pathogenesis, Evaluation, and Treatment is an invaluable resource for endocrinologists, gynecologists, and internists eager to learn more about this controversial and challenging disease.

Recenzii

From the reviews:
"This volume provides an up to date comprehensive review on various aspects of the polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), a more and more diagnosed disorder also in adolescent girls. It is divided into 6 parts … . A well written and informative text." (Pediatric Endocrinology Reviews, Vol. 5 (3), 2008)
"This is an overview of the association between insulin resistance and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) with a special focus on pathogenesis, evaluation, and treatment. The book also focuses on the other metabolic and fertility issues occurring in PCOS. … Although it can be used by students and residents, it is written primarily for practitioners whose focus is either in endocrinology or obstetrics/gynecology. … The book is useful and the information is current and relevant." (Monica Mortensen, Doody’s Review Service, August, 2007)
