This book provides a multidisciplinary approach to osteoporosis, covering assessment and treatment. It addresses osteoporosis as a skeletal metabolic disorder of epidemic extent, noting the dramatic increase in affected individuals and fragility fractures globally due to increased life expectancy. The disease affects millions of women and increasingly men, driven by age-related changes in body composition, metabolic factors, and hormonal levels.
This book, edited by Philippe Gorce, is a collection of articles focusing on the application of biomechanical modeling techniques to understand and analyze musculoskeletal disorders and diseases. Key areas covered include sports performance, health analysis, rehabilitation (such as pediatric lower-limb exoskeletons), and occupational ergonomics, featuring detailed studies on human gait and risk assessment.
Focuses on recent interest regarding assessments and therapeutic options of osteoporosis from the point of view of orthopedics. It addresses osteoporosis as a skeletal disorder characterized by low bone mass and compromised bone strength resulting in increased bone fragility and susceptibility to fracture.
An atlas detailing the technic and methods of examination using the slitlamp and corneal microscope, illustrating numerous observations made on patients. This work aims to provide fundamental instruction in the method of application in this new field of research.

This tutorial compares the management algorithms and necessary equipment (difficult-airway trolleys) for handling the paediatric difficult airway across high-resource and low-resource medical settings. It discusses the limitations of existing paediatric-specific guidelines, the economic factors determining equipment availability, and the critical need for resource-appropriate institutional protocols and designated equipment to manage both anticipated and unanticipated difficult airways.
A comprehensive clinical guide covering the diagnosis and management of pediatric urological and surgical conditions, including urinary tract infections, congenital abnormalities of the genitalia and scrotum, hypospadias, undescended testis, and disorders of continence.
A specialized guide detailing the methods, regulations, and practices required for the proper disposal and management of biomedical waste in healthcare settings.
This book provides a detailed look at the use of endoscopy and microendoscopy for the diagnosis and treatment of conditions affecting the lacrimal drainage system. It covers surgical innovations in ophthalmic plastic and reconstructive surgery, including Endoscopic Radiofrequency-Assisted Dacryocystorhinostomy (ERA-DCR) and Endoscopic Lacrimal Duct Recanalization (ELDR).
Analyzes the application of Fast Track Surgery (Enhanced Recovery After Surgery - ERAS) protocols in hip and knee arthroplasty, focusing on multimodal perioperative management, pain control, fluid management, and organizational standardization in elective orthopaedic procedures.
A High-Yield review guide designed for medical licensing exams (USMLE Step 1, 2CK, and 3), covering Reproduction and Obstetrics/Gynecology topics.
