Beautifully presented, and now in full colour, the sixth edition of Essential Endocrinology and Diabetes is fully up-to-date with the latest knowledge and concepts on the workings of the endocrine system. It explains the key principles of endocrine physiology in an easy reading style popular with students, clinicians and scientists. The invaluable background on basic science and investigation, including new molecular techniques, provides the foundation for detailed discussion of the diagnosis and management of clinical endocrine disorders and diabetes. The teaching style and presentation has been strengthened throughout, and includes learning objectives and “recap” links at the beginning of each chapter that remind the reader of key findings and principles, while cross-referencing makes it easy to locate related information quickly and efficiently. There are also more case studies, with detailed answers applying theory to practice. Essential Endocrinology and Diabetes is the perfect resource for a course on endocrinology and diabetes, as part of USMLE teaching, and an on-going companion during postgraduate clinical and scientific study. It is accompanied by a FREE enhanced Wiley Desktop Edition - the interactive, digital version of the book - featuring downloadable text and images, highlighting and note taking facilities, book-marking, cross-referencing, in-text searching, and linking to references and glossary terms.

ESSENTIAL ENDOCRINOLOGY AND DIABETES The Essentials are an international, best-selling series of textbooks, all of which are designed to support lecture series or themes on core topics within the health sciences.

Endocrinology, and diabetes care in particular, is a dynamic field where clinicians must translate new evidence into clinical practice at a rapid pace. Designed in an engaging, case-based format, Endocrinology and Diabetes: A Problem Oriented Approach offers a wide range of thought-provoking case studies that reflect contemporary, challenging, hands-on clinical care. Further, by providing a list of specific clinical problems, this format offers the reader a more convenient and pointed way to solve precise clinical problems in a timely manner. Developed by a renowned, international group of experts, this comprehensive title covers the most common clinical problems in endocrinology and diabetes and should be of great interest to endocrinologists, diabetologists, internal medicine physicians, family physicians, fellows, and residents.​

This brand new title in the Lecture Notes series coversa core element of the medical school curriculum. It presents the basic science needed to understand mechanisms ofdisease and describes the clinical presentations of the disordersassociated with different glands, concluding with the relevantinvestigations and management. Focusing on conditions commonly encountered on the wards and inexams, with key points to aid revision and recall, this new titleis perfect as a course companion and is the ideal revision tool formedical students, specialist nurses, and doctors working onendocrinology rotations. Lecture Notes: Endocrinology andDiabetes is also essential for endocrinology traineesapproaching the new Knowledge Based Assessment (KBA).

Developed from time-tested material utilized in endocrinology courses for medical students, this comprehensive and practical guide draws together a number of related disciplines to create a straightforward and accessible approach to the study of endocrine and metabolic diseases. Designed with the student in mind, each of the main endocrine organs and disorders are covered in thematic sections on diabetes, thyroid disorders, calcium disorders, adrenal disorders, and hypothalamus and pituitary disorders. Opening with clear learning objectives, chapters within each section discuss core concepts, anatomy, embryology, histology, testing, diagnosis and pharmacology, and include clinical case scenarios and multiple choice review questions. Full-color figures and diagrams enhance and extend the content. Perfect for in-class reference or board licensing review, Essentials of Endocrinology and Metabolism is an indispensable resource for medical and nursing students alike.

Essential Endocrinology clearly explains the molecular and physiological aspects of endocrinology and shows how knowledge of the fundamentals informs the understanding of endocrine diseases and their management. The distinguished author team has ensured that all topics are presented in a straightforward, accessible manner for ease of understanding. Each of the major endocrine systems is covered, with careful attention to the integration of basic medical science with clinical endocrine practice. Case studies are incorporated to give further value as a learning resource. A completely revised Chapter 2, reflecting both established and newer molecular mechanisms of hormone action. Opening chapters clearly describing the synthesis and secretion of hormones and the key topic of endocrine homeostasis. One entirely new appendix which gives a simple formula for working out steroid structures, thereby alleviating the need to learn by rote this difficult section of endocrinology. Two revised appendices covering techniques for measurement of hormones and classical experiments to characterise the interaction of hormones with their receptors. Clear, explanatory line diagrams throughout depicting the underlying concepts of the text.

A highly illustrated textbook of diabetes and endocrinology for medical students and junior doctors. An accessible coverage of diabetes and endocrinology in the graphic ICT format, making full use of line diagrams, colour photographs, tables and boxes. Comprehensive coverage of all common conditions, as well as the treatable rarer diseases. Boxes emphasise important clinical practice points. Summaries of crucial clinical trials are provided. Role of more specialised investigations, such as dynamic endocrine tests and magnetic resonance imaging are discussed. Relevant physiology and anatomy is included to enable understanding of tests and management.
