Echocardiography in Cardiac Interventions
This monograph represents an attempt to collect the methods developed within the past decade in which echocardiography was being used to guide or to assess the results of some cardiovascular interventions or to overcome the imaging limitations of transthoracic approaches. I have entitled this book Echocardio graphy in Cardiac Interventions, although I am aware that this title is not entirely applicable to all the included methods. In these interventive procedures echocar diography preserves its noninvasive nature, and by combining it with invasive procedures, they become more accurate, safer and less invasive. The book is divided into 8 sections and 42 chapters written by many authorities in...
Replacement of Renal Function by Dialysis
Completely revised edition of a global resource first published in 1978 and previously revised in 1989. Sixty-three contributions are arranged in sections on the pathophysiology of the uremic syndrome--principles and biophysics of dialysis; technology of dialysis and associated methods; quantification and prescription; complications; pharmacological considerations; special clinical situations; organ system and metabolic complications; and organization and results of chronic dialysis. The aim is to give understanding of the complexities of modern dialysis apparatus so that practitioners can make the best use of the technology--and so that fledgling nephrologists can avoid the temptation to by-pass the theory and the nuances.

Response and Adaptation to Hypoxia
The underlying theme of this book is the biology of oxygen. The 22 chapters cover aspects of molecular, cellular, and integrative physiological functions. A fundamental evolutionary feature of the oxygen-consuming organism is that it developed a oxygen-sensing mechanism as apart of feedback control at the levels of molecules, organelles, organs, and systems. Oxygen sensing is partic ularly expressed in certain specific cells and tissues like peripheral chemore ceptors, erythroprotein-producing cells, and vascular smooth muscle. Apart of the book is focused on the current issues of this basic question of chemosen sing. Mitrochondria as the major site for cellular oxygen consumption is a nat u...
