Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is aimed at primary care providers who care for the pediatric age group (general pediatrician, the PCP working with pediatric patients, and family medicine providers) with the goal of covering the endocrine differential diagnosis of common signs and symptoms of possible endocrine disease as well as appropriate initial laboratory evaluation and interpretation. While multiple pediatric endocrine textbooks exist, most of them are heavy in coverage of physiology and rare diseases, with less discussion of practical steps in evaluation and diagnosis. This book distinguishes itself through a very practical approach. The first section is organized by presenting signs and symptoms, the second section is organized by laboratory interpretation, and the third section provides summaries of common pediatric endocrine disorders. Chapters are concise, providing critical clinical information including clinical pearls, common diagnoses and important points in patient counseling. Written by experts in the field, Endocrine Conditions in Pediatrics is a valuable resource that provides general pediatricians and other primary care providers with all of the information they need to provide superb patient care before transferring to a pediatric endocrinologist when necessary.

Concise, pertinent information is provided on mitochondrial and fatty-acid oxidation, urea cycle and glycogen storage disorders, as well as organic acidurias and amino acidopathies. The most useful and user-friendly areas are the 1-to-2-page "at-a-glance" sections in each chapter which provide concise yet pertinent information about the disorders within a particular group of endocrine disturbances or IEM. This is a well written book and the multiple visual aids greatly assist in comprehension and memorization of the material...I strongly recommend this book without reservation." -- Doody's In one practical, user-friendly tutorial, a team of international contributors delivers the latest information and clinical insights you need to confidently diagnose and manage pediatric patients.

Book excerpt: A multitude of new developments, not only in the rapidly advancing field of molecular genetics and steroid metabolism but in all traditional areas of pediatric endocrinology, have influenced the diagnostic approach in children and adolescents with endocrine disorders, thus warranting this 4th, revised and extended edition of 'Diagnostics of Endocrine Function in Children and Adolescents'. Several chapters have been revised completely and all have been thoroughly updated. In addition, new chapters dealing with the muscle-bone unit and bone metabolism have also been incorporated. The original format of the chapters, which are a combination of in-depth discussion of the diagnostic process, practical conclusions and expert advice based on extensive experience, was maintained. Easy-to-use tables and figures allow for quick reference. Flowcharts of possible diagnostic pathways lead to the most frequent diagnoses. Presenting a broad range of diagnostic approaches, test procedures, and normative data required for establishing diagnoses for a broad spectrum of endocrine disorders, this book is an indispensable reference tool not only for endocrinologists and pediatricians but also for professionals in other specialties seeking evidence-based, rapid diagnostic solutions as the basis of advice and therapy for their patients.

Book excerpt: A Karger 'Publishing Highlights 1890-2015' title Algorithms provide a logical, concise and cost-effective approach to medical reasoning: utilizing a concise, step-by-step approach based upon clues from the history, physical examination and laboratory studies, algorithms help avoid excessive unnecessary procedures and testing. The 2nd, revised edition of Practical Algorithms in Pediatric Endocrinology deals with practical issues of child growth, puberty, diseases of the endocrine glands, sexual differentiation, as well as aberrations of water, electrolyte, mineral and carbohydrate metabolism. Fifty clinical issues are covered by an algorithmic approach, breaking down long lists and tables of differential diagnosis into smaller, more manageable ones. Common clinical symptoms, signs and laboratory abnormalities are classified as they present themselves at the patient's bedside. This book is aimed at general practitioners and pediatricians, in particular those who are not exposed to pediatric endocrine problems on a daily basis, and at trainees in endocrinology and pediatric endocrinology as they acquire familiarity with clinical problem solving to make rational choices when facing clinical dilemmas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ability to recognize key physical signs on examination of the child is vital in the diagnosis of pediatric endocrine and growth disorders. Pediatric Endocrinology and Growth illustrates these physical signs in colour and reviews the pathophysiology, differential diagnosis and treatment for each condition, providing a concise overview of the complex sub-specialty. This illustrated text describes the physical examination and history-taking, with guides to growth charts measurement techniques and physical signs. It then focuses on specific problems, from growth disorders to glucose homeostasis, early or late sexual development abnormal genitalia, goiter, failure to thrive and obesity. Each chapter reviews the pathology and physiology of the disorders as well as the differential diagnosis and preferred treatment options. Guidance is given on which cases should be referred to a specialist pediatric endocrinologist. Concise and structured text covering all pediatric endocrine disorders at the level required by a general pediatrician or endocrinologist, giving the generalist all the key information to diagnose and treat the more common conditions. Appendices of Tests of Endocrine Function and Normal Values guide the clinician as to which test to request, and normal values aid in the interpretation of the results. Growth charts show progress of typical cases, indicating likely the outcome of similar cases that may be encountered. Treatment options discussed for each condition to guide the clinician to the appropriate treatment plan Highly illustrated with 475 figures, most in full colour to facilitate diagnosis of those cases which can sometimes be difficult to diagnose accurately, by giving visual examples as well as written descriptions Individual new chapters on Diabetes (Glucose Homeostasis), Obesity and Failure to Thrive. Benefit: these are the conditions increasing most rapidly in incidence in the field, and so being seen more and more by general pediatricians Much more on the genetic basis of endocrine and growth disorders and antenatal treatment. Benefit: now able to screen for many of these conditions and the clinician can advise parents of the possibility of further affected children. Text expanded to make the new edition an illustrated text instead of an atlas. Benefit: this edition gives much more practical clinical detail and more on treatment options than the first edition, while keeping the text succinct and focussed. Much more on treatment options, including all new therapies, while still indicating when to refer to a specialist. Benefit: gives clear treatment plans for the non-specialist and indicates when the child needs more specialist treatment. Selected references now given with each chapter.
