medical research covered in thisvolume: epidemiology, physiologyand pathophysio logy, laboratory methodology, and renal pathology. New studies deal with the diagnosis and treatment of both incipient and overt nephropathy by metabolie, antihypertensive, and dietary invention. Considerable progress has been made in the management of end-stage renal failure and also in the management and treatment of nephropathy in the pregnant diabetic woman. Diabetic nephropathy is a worldwide problem, but it is more clearly defined in Europe and North America where facilities for the diagnosis and treatment of diabetes and its complications are readily available. Much more work needs to be done in other part...
An up-to-date reference reflecting the significant advances and important breakthroughs made in this emerging discipline over the last decade. As such, the book provides an overview of the latest developments and future trends in the field, focusing on such applications as the development of potentially active organometallic drugs against incurable diseases, as well as in such areas as catalysis, energy, analytical chemistry, and imaging. The renowned editor, who established the term "bioorganometallics", and his international team of experts have put together a valuable resource for researchers in organometallic, inorganic, medicinal, and biochemistry.

It is generally agreed that primary hypertension is a multifactorial disorder where both genetic and environmemntal factors play an important role. In recent years it has become evident that hypertension is closely associated with a number of metabolic risk factors for cardiovascular disease. Insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia seem to play a key role in the development of these risk factors. An increasing body of evidence also suggests that insulin may be directly involved in the pathogenesis of hypertension. Thus investigators representing different disciplines and approaches have critically reviewed the molecular and clinical evidence for the role of insulin in the pathogenesis of hypertension in this volume. Also suggested are possible interactions of insulin with genetic and environmental factors. This book succeeds in generating new approaches and defining areas needing further exploration, as well as contributing to the better understanding of the subject as a whole.
