The Endocrinology of Pregnancy and Parturition

Current Topics in Experimental Endocrinology, Volume 4: The Endocrinology of Pregnancy and Parturition deals with the various aspects of pregnancy and parturition. The book discusses pregnancy and parturition in marsupials; the vital role of the corpus luteum; and the endocrinology of the preimplantation period, looking into the variety of hormones and other agents and their involvement in the implantation process. The text also describes the critical role of prolactin in pregnancy; the role of human chorionic gonadotropin in early pregnancy; and specific pregnancy proteins. The clinical use of human placental lactogen in pregnancy; estrogen and progestrone production in human pregnancy; and the role of oxytocin in parturition; threatened abortion are also considered. Endocrinologists, obstetricians, gynecologists, reproductive physiologists, and students taking related courses will find the book invaluable.

Baila the Klopper

Every morning, Baila klops (Yiddish for "bangs") on all the village doors to wake people up so they get to synagogue on time. At each house she sings, "Get up! It's early, but soon will be later. Roll out of bed to serve your Creator!" But one day, Eliezer the blacksmith does not want to get up. A neighbor's music kept him up. The neighbor can't sleep because of a howling baby who can't sleep because all she wants is a bagel, and Bentzi the baker is always sold out. Can Baila make sure everyone gets to synagogue on time and has fresh bagels to eat?

The genus Aloe is arguably one of Africa's most iconic and valued plant genera. It is prized by succulent plant collectors, horticulturalists, and pharmaceutical companies alike for its fleshy leaves and therapeutic medicinal properties. The Aloe Names Book compiles for the first time the current taxonomy of each species, the over 1,500 names by which aloes are known globally, as well as hundreds of historical names and the richly descriptive meanings of Latin names used for aloes. This volume also features an easily searchable, definitive list of aloe-derived products, accompanied by an introduction to aloes, a comprehensive reference list, and color photographs of over 300 aloe species. The Aloe Names Book will be an essential reference for succulent enthusiasts, growers, researchers and agencies responsible for trade in endangered species.

  • Publisher: CRC Press

The focus of this two-volume work is osseo integration. It discusses the use of glue to attach bony tissue as well as the use of the absence of biochemical interactions between some oxide ceramics (particularly pure A1203 ceramic) and the adjacent tissue. This book also demonstrates the possibility of controlling the interface remodelling by the stresses and strains created by the insertion of the implant. Written in a concise, easy-to-read format, this text covers the use of implants in orthopedics, maxillo-facial surgery, and dentistry. All those involved with bioengineering, orthopedics, maxillo-facial surgery, dentistry, and biomechanics will find this reference to be of particular interest.

Implantation

The advent of assisted conception procedures such as in-vitro fertili sation (IVF) has provided the impetus for exploration of the factors that lead to the establishment of pregnancy. This collection of papers from leading research workers brings together current concepts of the processes which may be of importance in implantation. The complex signals from the embryo to the ovary, endometrium and myometrium are now being revealed through studies in both primates and other mammalian species. This book addresses the interrelationship of pituitary and ovarian hormones in controlling ovulation and the preparation of the intrauterine environment for implantation. Once fertilisation has occurred a...

Placental Signals

The third meeting of the European Placenta Group and the Rochester Trophoblast Conference in 1989 was concerned with placental communication; this volume presents selected contributions from the meeting, in four thematic sections: Growth, Differentiation, and Establishment of Pregnancy; Signals which regulate Placental Gonadotropin and Lactogen Secretion; Trophoblastic Signal Mechanisms, and Signals and Placental Vasculature.

Immunology of Pregnancy and its Disorders

The purpose of this book is to describe the nature of the materno-fetal immunobiological relationship and to suggest the direction in which the management of reproduction and its failure in man is moving. The several authors, who have written about their special fields of interest, need to be read within a framework designed to blend their contributions into a whole. This preamble provides a part of that framework, by describing the early development of the embryo, that of the placenta and its membranes and their anatomical relationship with maternal tissues: in other words, the stage upon which this materno-fetal dialogue takes place. Professor Maureen Young's 'tour de force', encapsulating...
