Book Synopsis Controversias en nefrología by : María Guadalupe Castro Martínez
Download or read book Controversias en nefrología written by María Guadalupe Castro Martínez and published by Editorial Alfil. This book was released on 2023-06-06 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La nefrología constituye una parte importante del quehacer del internista, quien suele participar en el estudio y el manejo de las enfermedades del riñón, órgano que además de presentar enfermedades propias suele ser blanco de la historia natural de enfermedades crónicas que lo dañan, provocan pérdida de las nefronas y deterioro de la función renal. Las principales causas de enfermedad renal terminal en México son la diabetes mellitus y la hipertensión arterial. Por lo anterior, el internista debe conocer la fisiología renal, así como la patología del órgano, los mecanismos de lesión renal, cómo se manifiesta clínicamente su deterioro y cómo manejar al paciente con enfermedad renal, ya sea intrínseca o secundaria. En los hospitales generales en México el internista suele ser quien maneja a estos pacientes; por esta razón el libro va dirigido principalmente a ellos; sin embargo, esta obra, que desarrolla cada tema en forma sencilla y fluida, será de gran utilidad también para los médicos generales o de otras especialidades que en su práctica diaria atienden pacientes nefrológicos. Como consecuencia de la necesidad de actualización que los internistas tienen en el área, y del compromiso de estos especialistas de brindar una atención médica de calidad a la sociedad, los editores ponen a disposición de la comunidad médica este volumen de Controversias en nefrología, escrito por un grupo de destacados especialistas, expertos cada uno de ellos en los temas que desarrollaron, esperando que atienda exitosamente las necesidades de conocimiento en los temas desarrollados para una mejor atención a nuestros pacientes. Los temas revisados incluyen la fisiopatología de las distintas nefropatías, cómo realizar la evaluación de estos pacientes, el manejo integral de los enfermos de acuerdo con los distintos padecimientos y la prevención del daño renal; aunque la obra va dirigida al médico internista, la forma en que fueron abordados los temas permite que sea de utilidad también para profesionistas de otras especialidades y para el médico general que se enfrenta al manejo del enfermo nefrópata.

Book Synopsis Onco-Nephrology E-Book by : Kevin W. Finkel
Download or read book Onco-Nephrology E-Book written by Kevin W. Finkel and published by Elsevier Health Sciences. This book was released on 2019-07-02 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kidney disease and cancer are frequent comorbidities that require specialized knowledge and expertise from both the nephrologist and the oncologist. Written by three pioneers in this growing subspecialty, Onco-Nephrology provides authoritative, definitive coverage of the mechanism and management of these two life-threatening diseases. This unique, single-volume resource covers current protocols and recommends management therapies to arrest kidney failure and allow oncologic treatments to continue and succeed. - Addresses acute and chronic kidney diseases that develop from a variety of cancers. This includes direct kidney injury from the malignancy, paraneoplastic effects of the cancer, and various cancer agents used to treat the malignancy. - Discusses key issues regarding kidney disease in patients with cancer, including conventional chemotherapeutic regimens and new novel therapies (targeted agents and immunotherapies) or the malignancies themselves that may promote kidney injury; patients with chronic kidney disease who acquire cancer unrelated to renal failure; and kidney transplantation, which has been shown to carry an increased risk of cancer. - Contains dedicated chapters for each class of the conventional chemotherapeutic agents, targeted cancer agents, and cancer immunotherapies including the basic science, pathogenic mechanisms of injury, clinical manifestations, and treatment. - Includes special chapters devoted to the individual classes of chemotherapies that relate to kidney disease for quick reference. Discusses increasingly complex problems due to more numerous and specialized anti-cancer drugs, as well as increased survival rates for both cancer and renal failure requiring long-term patient care. - Covers anti-VEGF (antivascular endothelial growth factor) agents and cancer immunotherapies – treatments that are being recognized for adverse kidney effects. - Utilizes a clear, logical format based on the ASN Core Curriculum for Onco-Nephrology, making this reference an excellent tool for board review, as well as a practical resource in daily practice. - Enhanced eBook version included with purchase. Your enhanced eBook allows you to access all of the text, figures, and references from the book on a variety of devices.

Download or read book Kidney Protection written by Vijay Lapsia and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-02-15 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kidney disease affects approximately ten percent of the population worldwide, with more than 2.6 million individuals estimated to be receiving renal replacement therapy. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is fast becoming a major public health issue, with increasing incidence and death rates throughout the world. Many strategies have been proposed to reduce the growing burden of kidney disease; but while early identification and improved access to renal replacement therapies and transplantation are important, they are unlikely to solve this enormous problem. Efforts focused on primary prevention, protection, and slowing the progression of kidney disease are needed as well. Renal protection is a vital and critical component of protecting the kidneys, promoting recovery, and preventing further renal loss, yet observational data suggests that awareness of renal protection remains low and the concept of renal protection under-recognized.. Kidney Protection: A Practical Guide to Preserving Renal Function in Acute and Chronic Disease is a clinically focused review that aims to address this awareness and knowledge gap. It assembles clinically pertinent information in a concise and lucid format with the goal of helping the clinician protect the kidneys, whether in the ICU, perioperative, or out-patient setting. The authors' interdisciplinary approach is inclusive of nephrology, urology, critical care, anesthesia, and emergency medicine. Chapters review understanding kidney disease, general concepts in protecting renal function, patient selection, assessment, pharmacologic issues, and kidney protection in systemic illness. The latest evidence-based practical guidelines for optimal renal outcomes are also included.
Book Synopsis Continuous Renal Replacement Therapies by : R. L. Mehta
Download or read book Continuous Renal Replacement Therapies written by R. L. Mehta and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The management of critically ill patients is rapidly undergoing change as new technology for the diagnosis, monitoring and treatment of these patients is being utilized. Moreover, the understanding of the pathophysiology of multi-organ failure has greatly increased, a key element in its management involving the support of organ function to allow specific interventions or time for recovery. Originally introduced as an alternative for intermittent hemodialysis, CRRT techniques are now also used for renal support not only in the traditional setting of acute renal failure, but also in other settings as diverse as liver support systems for end-stage liver disease and cancer chemotherapy. This utilization of a common mechanism of blood and plasma membrane interactions is truly an exciting advance, which is likely to be further developed in the next decade. In this multidisciplinary publication, recent advances in our understanding of pathophysiology and critical illness are highlighted, as well as emerging strategies in the management of sepsis, liver failure, acute renal failure, technical advances in CRRT and targeted intervention with these techniques. Since this publication provides articles relevant to the management of critically ill patients requiring renal support in the ICU setting, it should be read not only by nephrologists and critical care physicians, but by all those involved in the care of patients with multi-organ failure.
Download or read book Urinary Stones written by Albrecht Hesse and published by S. Karger AG (Switzerland). This book was released on 1997 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although methods for lithotripsy are effective in removing urinary stones, these methods can only treat the symptoms, not cure the disease. Depending on the nature of the stones, there is a recurrence rate of 60-100% if no follow-up measures are taken. With detailed knowledge of the causes of urinary stone formation, however, recurrences can largely be prevented.
Download or read book Hidden Hunger written by H.K. Biesalski and published by Karger Medical and Scientific Publishers. This book was released on 2016-05-24 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Malnutrition caused by deficiencies of vitamins and minerals - also called hidden hunger - impairs both the intellectual and physical development of a child. Due to the absence of clinical symptoms and assessments, no intervention can be staged. The tragedy is that this, in turn, decreases the child’s chance to escape from poverty. This book looks at malnutrition in high-income countries, the nutrition transition and nutritional deficiencies in low-income countries, consequences of hidden hunger, and interventions to improve nutrition security. Written by leading experts in the field, it clearly stresses that national governments and international organizations must make malnutrition one of their top priorities in order to provide children with optimal conditions for a healthy future.

Download or read book Nephrology Forum written by J.J. Cohen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A few years ago, as the editor of Kidney International, I was ap proached by Drs. Cohen, Kassirer, and Harrington who suggested that a new feature should be included in each monthly issue of the journal. They suggested that it should employ a case discussion format such as that used frequently at specialty rounds in teaching hospitals, and that the discussion should place a special emphasis on the relationship between basic science and important problems in clinical nephrology. The summary of an actual patient history would first be presented to exemplify a particular clinical problem, a seasoned person of proven expertise would be invited to deliver a well-documented analysis of the relevant issues, and perhaps most ambitiously of all, a critical audience would be assembled to challenge the principal discussant in an open ended, question-and-answer period. The entire affair would be recorded at the time of the live conference and transcribed subse quently in preparation for publication as a "Nephrology Forum. " I must confess that I was somewhat hesitant at first to endorse their proposal because, at the time, Kidney International had just begun to establish a solid reputation for the publication of high quality, peer reviewed manuscripts dealing with the clinical and laboratory research interests of the international nephrological community.

It is therefore an essential resource for practicing cardiologists, cardiac surgeons, vascular specialists and radiologists.
Book Synopsis Chronic Kidney Disease by : Junwei Yang
Download or read book Chronic Kidney Disease written by Junwei Yang and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-11-08 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive and systematic review of the latest findings in a wide spectrum of clinically important aspects of chronic kidney disease (CKD), focusing on clinical diagnosis and therapeutics. CKD is a global health problem with a rising morbidity and mortality. The last decade has seen significant improvements in determining the incidence, prevalence, and complications of CKD, mainly thanks to the definitions of CKD developed by the National Kidney Foundation’s Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative (K/DOQI). However, increased recognition of CKD has led to awareness of the limitations of its clinical diagnosis and treatment, which are essential to patients’ wellbeing. This book is of particular value not only to nephrologists, but also to general practitioners and residents with an interest in CKD. It offers a well-organized exposition of the current knowledge base. Compared with previously published books on kidney disease and CKD, it has a smaller number of more concise chapters. As a result, readers can easily obtain an overview of the most important topics in CKD. We hope that practitioners will gain as much from reading this practical guide to clinical management of CKD as we have from editing it.
