Syndromes of Hormone Resistance on the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Thyroid Axis
ISBN: 9781402078071 / Angielski / Twarda / 198 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The exponential growth in our knowledge on the pathophysiology of hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis and, in particular, of thyroid hormone action, largely stems from the studies on the various syndromes of resistance to the hormones involved in the function of the axis. These syndromes essentially encompass two forms, i. e. the resistance to thyroid hormones and that to TSH action. The contribution of molecular biology has been fundamental in understanding the etiology of these different thyroid disorders and led to the discovery of new pathogenetic mechanisms, e. g. the dominant negative...

Insulin Pump Therapy Demystified: An Essential Guide for Everyone Pumping Insulin
ISBN: 9781569245088 / Angielski / Miękka / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Increasing numbers of people with type 1 diabetes, all of whose lives depend on insulin, as well as type 2 diabetics, have already adopted the insulin pump, which replaces a regimen of insulin shots with a continuous delivery of insulin. Yet many who stand to benefit from "the pump" are put off by not fully understanding the device, and many already using it don't have anyone with whom to compare notes about its use. Now Gabrielle Kaplan-Mayer, who has used the pump for more than three years, cuts through common personal fears about the pump and offers insight into the day-to-day...
