Textbook of Nephro-Endocrinology

Editat de Ajay K. Singh, Gordon H. Williams
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 23 dec 2008
The Textbook of Nephro-Endocrinology is the definitive translational reference in the field of nephro-endocrinology, investigating both the endocrine functions of the kidneys and how the kidney acts as a target for hormones from other organ systems. It offers researchers and clinicians expert, gold-standard analyses of nephro-endocrine research and translation into the treatment of diseases such as anemia, chronic kidney disease (CKD), rickets, osteoporosis, and, hypoparathyroidism.

  • Investigates both the endocrine functions of the kidneys and how the kidney acts as a target for hormones from other organ systems
  • Presents a uniquely comprehensive and cross-disciplinary look at all aspects of nephro-endocrine disorders in one reference work
  • Clear translational presentations by the top endocrinologists and nephrologists in each specific hormone or functional/systems field

Recenzii

"This well-written, relatively concise, and current book will find a home on the shelves of many nephrologists and endocrinologists. Because it is so readable, it should be useful for students, experts, and those in between. I know I will consult my copy on a frequent basis - an unusual event in this era of online material." --N Engl J Med, 2009
"All in all, this is a solid book that provides substantial up-todate information on endocrine aspects of the kidney. I will be glad to pull it down from my shelf rather than one of the true heavyweights to which I would previously have gone for this kind of reading." --Kidney International, 2009
"Written by multidisciplinary experts from several countries, this book is divided into 2 parts and 7 sections. A very useful volume. Each chapter is richly referenced." --Pediatric Endocrinology Reviews
