Cardiovascular and metabolic diseases remain the number one cause of death in developed countries and their prevalence is increasing rapidly in developing nations. This book is the first that brings together the most recent information on obesity, hypertension and insulin resistance and the links that exist between them in order to provide a complete picture of drug discovery for these disorders. The opening chapter introduces the molecular links between obesity and metabolic dysfunction before the main three sections present obesity, hypertension and

The emergence of high-speed computing has facilitated the development of many exciting statistical and mathematical methods in the last 25 years, broadening the landscape of available tools in statistical investigations of complex data. Biostatistics: A Computing Approach focuses on visualization and computational approaches associated with both modern and classical techniques. Furthermore, it promotes computing as a tool for performing both analyses and simulations that can facilitate such understanding.

A comprehensive account of protozoan and metozoan diseases in modern clinical practice, with orientation towards clinical management of parasitic infections. In the past, parasitology was considered as an obscure subject of little relevance to the majority of clinicians and microbiologists. Over the last decade, however, much has happened to change this, not least the explosion in foreign travel

This textbook is the forth in the Principles and Practice series, providing an expansive and detailed coverage of clinical microbiology. It has a similar appeal to that of Zuckerman's, Principles & Practice of Clinical Virology, with an international authorship and emphasis placed on integrating new knowledge in a clinically relevant manner.

ARASITOLOGY FOR MEDICAL LABORATORY TECHNICIANS is the ideal text to guide readers in understanding the background, source, recovery, and identification of a well-representative range of organisms that commonly affect humans. This book organizes a complex set of topics into an understandable and easy-to-read format that will help readers learn more about parasitic infections and how to effectively collect and prepare samples, aiding in the diagnosis of parasitosis. The subtle differences between similar parasitic organisms are all explained in a simple and

Parasitology can be defined as a discipline that deals with the study of parasites and their interactions with their hosts. Parasites may live in (as an intracellular/ intercellular parasite) or on the host (as an ectoparasite) without causing any discomfort or disease. Such parasites may be regarded as non-pathogenic parasites whereas those which cause disease or illness are pathogenic parasites.

Infections caused by parasites are still a major global health problem. Although parasitic infections are responsible for a signifcant morbidity and

mortality in the developing countries, they are also prevalent in the developed countries. Early diagnosis and treatment of a parasitic infection is not only critical for preventing morbidity and mortality individually but also for reducing the risk of spread of infection in the community.

In the period since the publication of the second edition of this book in 1975, the importance of human parasitism for clinical medicine has continued its undiminished growth. The number of patients with parasitic infections now seeking medical advice has risen considerably. A major factor in such increases has been the ease of rapid and frequent travel for reasons of business or leisure to tropical

This laboratory handbook summarizes the concepts dealing with the laboratory aspects of medical mycology. Owing to the increased importance of fungi in medicine, there is a pressing need to discuss important topics such as laboratory safety and emergency procedures, quality control of media and equipment, new isolation techniques, susceptibility testing, and modern concepts for the identification of fungi. The information included in this handbook is intended to assist laboratory technologists, microbiologists, and mycologists in safely isolating and accurately identifying fungi of medical importance.
