Gestational Diabetes Origins Complications and Treatment

Gestational Diabetes Origins Complications and Treatment

Given the rapid increase in the worldwide incidence of gestational diabetes the need for defining the risks and effects associated with raised glucose concentrations in pregnancy is great. Recent large studies are helping to define the risks as well as identify the benefits of reducing glucose intolerance. Written by an esteemed list of international authors Gestational Diabetes: Origins Complications and Treatment presents timely reviews relating to some of the most important aspects of gestational diabetes specifically its causes consequences and treatments. Divided into five sections the book begins with a section on metabolism in pregnancy and gestational diabetes dealing with maternal and foetal glucose metabolism and the controversial area of what actually constitutes gestational diabetes. The next section examines risk factors and causes of gestational diabetes including the obvious but often overlooked factors—being female and pregnant. The text also outlines environmental and genetic risk factors. The third section deals with the potential complications of gestational diabetes for both mother and offspring considering short-term and long-term effects. The largest section in the book addresses treatments in an effort to improve the outcome for the mother and the baby. Chapters describe the nutritional approach considered the cornerstone of treating gestational diabetes as well as evidence for the role of exercise in its treatment and a useful strategy for treating gestational diabetes pharmacologically. The final section discusses future prospects in screening diagnosis prevention pathophysiology and treatment of gestational diabetes. | Gestational Diabetes Origins Complications and Treatment

Pathology of the Developing Mouse A Systematic Approach

Pathology of the Developing Mouse A Systematic Approach

Pathology of the Developing Mouse provides in so far as feasible one complete reference on the design analysis and interpretation of abnormal findings that may be detected in developing mice before and shortly after birth. In particular this book is designed specifically to be not only a how to do manual for developmental pathology experimentation in mice but more importantly a how to interpret resource for pathologists and other biomedical scientists faced for the first or hundredth time with defining the significance of distorted features in some fantastic murine developmental monstrosity. The topics covered in this volume include a full range of subjects encountered when building and wielding a developmental pathology tool kit: baseline anatomic and physiologic traits of developing miceprinciples of good experimental design and statistical analysis for mouse developmental pathology studiesprocedures for anatomic pathology examinations to evaluate structural changes at the macroscopic (gross) microscopic (cells and tissues) and ultrastructural (subcellular) levels suing conventional autopsy-based or novel non-invasive imaging techniques;methods for clinical pathology testing to assess the biochemical and cellular composition of tissues and fluids; options and protocols for in situ molecular pathology analysis to undertake site-specific explorations of the various mechanisms responsible for producing adverse findings (i. e. lesions) during development; and well-referenced and illustrated guides to the interpretation of anatomic pathology and clinical pathology changes in the animal (embryos fetuses neonates and juveniles) and its support system (placenta). | Pathology of the Developing Mouse A Systematic Approach

Nanotechnology in Biology and Medicine Methods Devices and Applications Second Edition

Nanotechnology in Biology and Medicine Methods Devices and Applications Second Edition

The second edition of Nanotechnology in Biology and Medicine is intended to serve as an authoritative reference source for a broad audience involved in the research teaching learning and practice of nanotechnology in life sciences. This technology which is on the scale of molecules has enabled the development of devices smaller and more efficient than anything currently available. To understand complex biological nanosystems at the cellular level we urgently need to develop a next-generation nanotechnology tool kit. It is believed that the new advances in genetic engineering genomics proteomics medicine and biotechnology will depend on our mastering of nanotechnology in the coming decades. The integration of nanotechnology material sciences molecular biology and medicine opens the possibility of detecting and manipulating atoms and molecules using nanodevices which have the potential for a wide variety of biological research topics and medical uses at the cellular level. This book presents the most recent scientific and technological advances of nanotechnology for use in biology and medicine. Each chapter provides introductory material with an overview of the topic of interest; a description of methods protocols instrumentation and applications; and a collection of published data with an extensive list of references for further details. The goal of this book is to provide a comprehensive overview of the most recent advances in instrumentation methods and applications in areas of nanobiotechnology integrating interdisciplinary research and development of interest to scientists engineers manufacturers teachers and students. | Nanotechnology in Biology and Medicine Methods Devices and Applications Second Edition
