A comprehensive reference detailing the diseases of the liver and biliary system. This Thirteenth Edition is accompanied by a companion website providing PowerPoints of all figures from the book.
The main objective of this book is to provide updated information on bile acids for scientists and physicians, detailing their role as a key player in lipid metabolism, as well as a cytotoxic or protective agent for hepatobiliary and digestive diseases. It covers bile acid function in cholesterol secretion, transport in bile, and fat digestion and absorption in the small intestine, aiming to bridge basic research progress with clinical application.
Volume V of this comprehensive plastic surgery text focuses on oncological topics, covering the diagnosis and management of tumors affecting the head, neck, and skin. Key areas include pediatric tumors, vascular anomalies, salivary gland tumors, tumors of the craniofacial skeleton, oral cavity tumors, and management strategies for benign and malignant skin cancers, including melanoma and regional metastatic disease.
A comprehensive illustrated guide detailing the use of Botulinum Toxin (BTX) for aesthetic treatments. Topics covered include the active substance (BTX), mechanism of action, documentation, patient examination, treatment protocols (preparation, injection technique), and specific regional applications like the forehead, glabella, and periorbital areas.
Comprehensive evidence-based consensus guidelines developed by the Indian Academy of Pediatrics (IAP) focusing on the developmentally supportive care and long-term follow-up of high-risk infants. The guidelines aim to address the needs arising from increased neonatal survival and emphasize risk stratification, early stimulation, structured interventions, and the use of a color-coded system for monitoring to reduce the need for future rehabilitative services.
An analysis of general considerations in cataract surgery, including the relationship between different types of lens opacities and patient mortality, the association with systemic diseases, and a review of various local anaesthesia techniques (peribulbar, retrobulbar, topical) and their effects on intraocular pressure and blood flow.
An edited volume exploring how metabolic and lifestyle factors, including obesity, diabetes, age, and diet, influence the modulation of sleep patterns and function. It covers the interconnections between these areas, such as the relationship between sleep deprivation and reduced glucose metabolism.
A comprehensive resource detailing the anatomy, physiology, pathology, diagnosis, and management of diseases affecting the cornea and external eye, covering surgical techniques and clinical considerations.
Seizures are common in newborn infants with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy and are highly associated with adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes. This review discusses the impact of seizure activity on the developing brain, the poor efficacy and potential neurotoxicity of current anticonvulsants (like phenobarbital and phenytoin), and the need for randomized controlled trials to determine the safety and efficacy of treatments combined with therapeutic hypothermia.
