Doing Clinical Healthcare Research: A Survival Guide will help students, academics and healthcare staff identify and overcome organisational barriers to conducting research in busy clinical environments and show how research should be project managed in order to guarantee successful outcomes for all involved.
In addition to its metabolic and endocrinologic effects, obesity and adipose tissue have now been shown to be associated with low grade inflammation resulting in cellular and humoral inflammatory factors of which the latter may act by endocrine, paracrine and autocrine mechanisms.
That residues of pesticide and other "e;foreign"e; chemicals in foodstuffs are of concern to everyone everywhere is amply attested by the reception accorded previous volumes of "e;Residue Reviews"e; and by the gratifying en- thusiasm, sincerity, and efforts shown by all the individuals from whom manuscripts have been solicited.
This detailed book provides an exhaustive picture of current methods to detect, isolate, and analyze extracellular vesicles (EVs) from diverse sources, now seen as potential disease biomarkers as well as tools for the development of new therapies.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) now requires that all clinical trials for drugs that affect the central nervous systemincluding psychiatric drugsare assessed for whether that drug might cause suicidal ideation or behavior.
This detailed second edition provides key updates on well-established methods as well as coverage of recently emerging sophisticated techniques and methods that are essential for an in-depth and state-of-the-art understanding of skeletal development and homeostasis and the pathological mechanisms that cause skeletal degeneration.
Clinical Engineering is intended for professionals and students in the clinical engineering field who need to successfully deploy medical technologies.
The microbial world has given us many surprises including microbes that grow under extremely harsh conditions (122C at 40 MPa), novel metabolisms such as the uranium and perchlorate reduction, and novel chemicals that can be used to control diseases.
Organic chemistry research has moved rapidly toward synthesis and medicinal application of nitrogen-containing compounds such as triazenes, triazines, and hydroxytriazenes due to their excellent biological activities.
The practice of modern medicine and biomedical research requires sophisticated information technologies with which to manage patient information, plan diagnostic procedures, interpret laboratory results, and carry out investigations.
Sample Sizes for Clinical Trials, Second Edition is a practical book that assists researchers in their estimation of the sample size for clinical trials.
This book covers basic research topics such as the structure-function relationships of neuropilins and mechanisms of neuropilin-mediated signal transduction, details the most important roles of the neuropilins in developmental biology, and addresses their roles in various conditions such as cancer and various eye diseases.
This volume covers the latest advances in technologies that look at familial cardiomyopathies in greater detail, and provides new computational and experimental models that model, study, and detect disease at earlier stages.
