World Scientific Publishing Company





This manual provides practical and accessible information on all aspects of general nephrology, dialysis, and transplantation. It outlines current therapies in straightforward language to help readers understand the treatment rationale, and does not assume extensive knowledge of anatomy, biochemistry, or pathophysiology. Consisting of 33 chapters written by 31 experts from four continents, this volume covers all the practical tips in the emergency and long-term management of patients with electrolyte disturbance, acid-base disturbance, acute renal failure, common glomerular diseases, hypertension, pregnancy-related renal disorders, chronic renal failure, and renal replacement therapy. It is thus an essential source of quick reference for nephrologists, internists, renal fellows, and renal nursing specialists, and is also suitable for graduate students and research scientists in the field of kidney diseases.

The Kidney and Hypertension in Diabetes Mellitus retains its position as the comprehensive resource for information on diabetic kidney disease.

The new edition focuses on pressure-induced and metabolic related aberration in relation to genetic abnormalities, and also changes developing in fetal life. New chapters explore exercise, lipidemia, and retinopathy in diabetic renal disease and new data are presented regarding structural changes in NIDDM-patients and the comparison of diabetic and non-diabetic renal disease. The book covers new guidelines and definitions in type 2 diabetes, management of end-stage renal failure, and demographic trends in the patient population. Other topics include diabetic nephropathy, glycemic control, and early treatment in normotensive patients with microalbuminuria with ACE-inhibitors.

Clinical Physiology of Acid-Base and Electrolyte Disorders, 5th ed, 2001




Problems are presented at the end of most of the chapters in both the physiology and clinical sections. These problems are intended both to test understanding and to emphasize important concepts frequently misunderstood by physicians dealing with these disorders.


Lange Instant Access: Acid-Base, Fluids, and Electrolytes, 2007


Lange Instant Access: Acid-Base, Fluids, and Electrolytes is broken down into three major sections. The first section discusses electrolyte disorders; the second acid-base disturbances; and the third, mineral metabolism. Hopefully, after reading this book the reader will begin to comprehend the complex world of electrolytes, acid-base, and mineral metabolism.
