Extending from the outpatient management of cardiovascular and kidney disease, to hospital-based decision making in patients with cardio-renal disease and complex interfaces such as hemodialysis in patients with ventricular assist device support, this book serves as a single reference point for cardiology and nephrology clinicians and researchers dealing with the significant overlap areas between these two specialties. Chapters cover the physiology, biomarkers, therapeutic agents and full spectrum of these comorbidities and feature separate sections on cardiovascular and CKD evaluations, stratification of kidney transplant patients, lipid management in CKD, interventional strategies and hypertension. Leaders in cardiology, nephrology, hypertension and lipidology bring together the latest evidence with their collective clinical experience into this invaluable resource.This textbook is an essential resource for physicians and allied professionals practicing cardiology, nephrology, students and physician trainees, to deepen their understanding of this crucial field.
Cell phones, IPods, and texting, just arent cutting it - and we live in an age when people are desperate to find intimate connection. What we need is intimacy (in-to-me-see) human moments when hearts connect, creating the splendor that couples wish for. But how do we get there? Heart Connection is a powerful combination of gripping true-life stories, fascinating cutting-edge research that explains why we feel and act the way we do, and practical principles and theories that can transform your relationships from messy and mundane to ones that are wildly alive and beating with human passion and Gods vibrant love; the kind of sacrificial love that makes dreams come true. It doesnt mystically happen in marriage when a couple says, I do. But it can be yours if youre willing to clean up the junk the Devil has dumped on you, so you can express and receive Gods unfiltered abundant love through the tender words, meaningful touch, and adoring gaze of your lifelong partner. All of your relationships can experience this longed-for change because new science says that even our DNA is changeable fixable just like you are!
While the past decade has seen a surge of research regarding canine cognition, this newfound interest has not caught the attention of many philosophers. Studies pertaining to dog minds have been pouring out of canine cognition labs all over the world, but they remain relatively ensconced within the scientific, sociological, and anthropological communities, and very little philosophical thought on dog cognition exists. Philosophers certainly have not shied away from theorizing about the nature of nonhuman animal cognition generally. Theories range from Cartesian disavowal of all nonhuman intelligence to arguments that even fish have complex minds and therefore humans should not eat them. Seri...

In addition, users will find comprehensive information on new research related to the microbial composition of the gut microbiome and how it influences brain function and mental health. Common comorbidities with mental illness and their inherent immunological or inflammatory components are also covered. New chapters and sections on peripheral and central mechanisms in relation to viral pathogens, RNA editing to treat...
This proceedings volume presents recent theoretical and practical advances in operational research (OR). The papers focus on a number of key areas including combinatorial optimization, integer programming, heuristics, and mathematical programming. In addition, this volume highlights OR applications in different areas such as financial decision making, marketing, e-business, project management, scheduling, traffic and transportation. The chapters are based on papers presented at the 13th Balkan Conference on Operations Research (BALCOR). BALCOR is an established biennial conference. The selected papers promote international collaboration among researchers and practitioners, with a particular focus on the Balkan countries.
"The challenge of improving health outcomes for individuals and populations remains daunting. Fortunately, collaboration among multiple disciplines accelerates our appreciation of innate and external determinants of health for individuals and populations. Interprofessional research, education and practice also strengthens our capacity to design, disseminate, and deliver effective strategies and policies to prevent and treat diseases, and improve health"--
