Download or read book Alterations in Glucose Homeostasis in Children Adolescents and Young Adults written by E. Otto-Buczkowska and published by Nova Science Publishers. This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book dedicated to the presentation of the latest research on selected issues associated with type 1 diabetes. The authors are well-known professors of Polish medical universities who published numerous scientific papers. Type 1 diabetes is the predominant form of diabetes in young people. It is an autoimmune disease which is particularly aggressive in small children. It is also a pandemic illness characterised by autoimmune, genetic and metabolic abnormalities. It concerns mainly children and young people, and therefore is a condition the patient will have to struggle with for many years hence. This is why it is extremely important to maintain maximum metabolic compensation to delay the occurrence of chronic complications which are an issue not only for the patient, but also for the society as a whole, as they involve a considerable financial burden. At present, we can observe the development of great advances in the treatment of this form of diabetes. Modern insulin preparations have been introduced as well as improved methods of glucose monitoring and insulin delivery. New ways to delay the autoimmune processes are being studied and implemented. It is becoming more and more realistic to create the "artificial pancreas", which should greatly facilitate the achievement of normal metabolic control. In the long term, a possibility may exist to completely cure diabetes. A wide dissemination of knowledge concerning the latest research on type 1 diabetes is extremely important among patients and, above all, among medical practitioners. This book is to serve as an approximation of the latest knowledge for physicians who take care of patients with diabetes on a daily basis.

Download or read book Handbook of Life Course Health Development written by Neal Halfon and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-11-20 with total page 667 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is open access under a CC BY 4.0 license. This handbook synthesizes and analyzes the growing knowledge base on life course health development (LCHD) from the prenatal period through emerging adulthood, with implications for clinical practice and public health. It presents LCHD as an innovative field with a sound theoretical framework for understanding wellness and disease from a lifespan perspective, replacing previous medical, biopsychosocial, and early genomic models of health. Interdisciplinary chapters discuss major health concerns (diabetes, obesity), important less-studied conditions (hearing, kidney health), and large-scale issues (nutrition, adversity) from a lifespan viewpoint. In addition, chapters address methodological approaches and challenges by analyzing existing measures, studies, and surveys. The book concludes with the editors’ research agenda that proposes priorities for future LCHD research and its application to health care practice and health policy. Topics featured in the Handbook include: The prenatal period and its effect on child obesity and metabolic outcomes. Pregnancy complications and their effect on women’s cardiovascular health. A multi-level approach for obesity prevention in children. Application of the LCHD framework to autism spectrum disorder. Socioeconomic disadvantage and its influence on health development across the lifespan. The importance of nutrition to optimal health development across the lifespan. The Handbook of Life Course Health Development is a must-have resource for researchers, clinicians/professionals, and graduate students in developmental psychology/science; maternal and child health; social work; health economics; educational policy and politics; and medical law as well as many interrelated subdisciplines in psychology, medicine, public health, mental health, education, social welfare, economics, sociology, and law.

Book excerpt: Over the last few decades the prevalence of diabetes has dramatically grown in most regions of the world. In 2010, 285 million people were diagnosed with diabetes and it is estimated that the number will increase to 438 million in 2030. Hypoglycemia is a disorder where the glucose serum concentration is usually low. The organism usually keeps the serum glucose concentration in a range of 70 to 110 mL/dL of blood. In hypoglycemia the glucose concentration normally remains lower than 50 mL/dL of blood. Hopefully, this book will be of help to many scientists, doctors, pharmacists, chemicals, and other experts in a variety of disciplines, both academic and industrial.
