Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Estructurada por sistemas metabólicos y endocrinos específicos, ofrece un contenido basado en la evidencia sobre las alteraciones de la función de estos sistemas durante el proceso de envejecimiento. Aborda los cambios fisiológicos que alteran la fisiopatología de las presentaciones clínicas, y explica las diferentes expresiones patológicas características de los trastornos hormonales y metabólicos en la edad avanzada. Explora la transición desde la edad adulta joven hasta la edad avanzada y analiza los desafíos endocrinológicos que supone diferenciar la fisiología de la patología. Enfatiza en la edad como factor esencial para el diagnóstico y el manejo endocrino. Incluye numerosos esquemas e imágenes que facilitan la utilización de la obra en el entorno clínico. Revisa y actualiza los contenidos de la edición en inglés, e incorpora cuatro capítulos nuevos. Editado y escrito por endocrinólogos clínicos, geriatras, internistas y cirujanos endocrinos con amplia experiencia en gerontología clínica y experimental procedentes de España, distintos países de Latinoamérica y Estados Unidos. La Organización de las Naciones Unidas prevé que la población mundial de 60 años o más será de 1.400 millones en 2030 y de 2.100 millones en 2050. A medida que la población mundial envejece, aumenta la necesidad de una comprensión más profunda de la patología geriátrica y, con ello, la exigencia de acceder a recursos educativos que permitan comprender mejor la endocrinología y el metabolismo del envejecimiento, pues tanto endocrinólogos como médicos generalistas se enfrentarán al desafío de cuidar de la salud de personas de edad cada vez más avanzada, para lo que necesitarán incorporar los principios geriátricos a su práctica clínica. Endocrinología del envejecimiento. Aspectos clínicos en esquemas e imágenes presenta el contenido de una forma que permite asimilar los conceptos y los conocimientos fundamentales sobre temas endocrinos complejos de una manera esquemática y visual. Dirigida especialmente a educadores y especialistas relacionados con la endocrinología y la geriatría, también será de interés para los profesionales de la medicina interna y la medicina familiar.

Download or read book The Healing Self written by Deepak Chopra and published by Rider. This book was released on 2019-01-03 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heal yourself from the inside out Our immune systems can no longer be taken for granted. Current trends in public healthcare are disturbing- our increased air travel allows newly mutated bacteria and viruses to spread across the globe, antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria outstrip the new drugs that are meant to fight them, deaths due to hospital-acquired infections are increasing, and the childhood vaccinations of our aging population are losing their effectiveness. Now more than ever, our well-being is at a dangerous crossroad. But there is hope, and the solution lies within ourselves. The Healing Self is the new breakthrough book in self-care by bestselling author and leader in integrative medicine Deepak Chopra and Harvard neuroscientist Rudolph E Tanzi. They argue that the brain possesses its own lymphatic system, meaning it is also tied into the body's general immune system. Based on this brand new discovery, they offer new ways of increasing the body's immune system by stimulating the brain and our genes, and through this they help us fight off illness and disease. Combined with new facts about the gut microbiome and lifestyle changes, diet and stress reduction, there is no doubt that this ground-breaking work will have an important effect on your immune system.

Download or read book Dietary Intake and Type 2 Diabetes written by Omorogieva Ojo and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2019-12-05 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The prevalence of diabetes is on the increase in the UK and worldwide, partly due to changes in lifestyle which predispose individuals to overweight and obesity. It is estimated that about 90% of the currently diagnosed adults have type 2 diabetes, and based on the World Health Organisation (WHO) report, about 422 million adults were living with diabetes in 2014 compared with 108 million in 1980; this condition caused about 1.5 million deaths in 2012. In the United States of America, it is estimated that about 30.3 million adults are living with diabetes, with a further 1.5 million new diabetes cases diagnosed every year, representing an increasing prevalence of this condition. Diabetes represents a major public health challenge, despite advances in technology and the pharmaceutical industry. These problems may be in the form of acute or long-term complications. Therefore, in order to attenuate the problems of diabetes, management strategies usually include lifestyle changes such as increased physical activity and dietary interventions. Studies which evaluate the role of nutrition in the management of type 2 diabetes often involve human and animal models as these approaches enable us to have a broader and more in-depth understanding of the condition. In some cases, diabetes may co-exist with other conditions, such as stroke, and these may present unique challenges with regard to nutritional interventions. This Special Issue aims to evaluate the risk factors associated with type 2 diabetes and the role of the diet in the management of people with this condition. This evidence is drawn from both human and animal studies.

Download or read book Osteosarcopenia Bone Muscle and Fat Interactions written by Gustavo Duque and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-11-06 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited work presents the most current evidence on osteosarcopenia from bench to bedside, which is expected to facilitate the understanding of this syndrome and to develop preventive and therapeutic strategies. With our aging population, chronic diseases such as osteoporosis and sarcopenia are becoming highly prevalent. Fortunately, our understanding of the bone and muscle interactions has increased in recent years. This has allowed to the coining of the term osteosarcopenia to describe a syndrome in which these two diseases overlap. This overlap between osteoporosis and sarcopenia has major negative effects not only on our older adults but also on health systems worldwide. Readers will find a highly translational approach that starts with a summary of recent discoveries on stem cells biology, muscle and bone interactions – including the role of local bone and muscle fat – followed by comprehensive reviews on myokines (i.e. myostatin), osteokines (i.e. osteocalcin) and adipokines (i.e. interleukins) as major players and determinants of bone and muscle loss with aging. In addition, the role of sex steroids (i.e. estrogens, androgens), and calciotropic hormones (i.e. parathyroid hormone, vitamin D) in the pathogenesis of this syndrome is also reviewed. Moreover, using practical diagnostic and therapeutic tips, this book summarizes the clinical characteristics of osteosarcopenic patients thus facilitating the diagnosis and treatment of this syndrome in clinical practice. Finally, the book presents the case for the Falls and Fractures Clinic as the optimal model of care for this syndrome, aimed to avoid fragmentation and optimize osteosarcopenia care, and simultaneously prevent falls and fractures in older persons. This book offers relevant information on the mechanisms of osteosarcopenia, and a practical guide on how to identify and treat this geriatric syndrome and its adverse outcomes, which are dramatically affecting our aging population. The work is written by leaders in the field and is especially suited not only to any researcher in the musculoskeletal arena but also to medical specialists and allied health professionals involved in the care of older persons.
