Clinical Nephrogeriatrics
The increase in average life expectancy observed over recent decades has brought new challenges to nephrology practice. Several renal diseases are more frequent in elderly patients today, and even in healthy older individuals renal physiology has its own peculiarities. This leads to the need for a specific approach on renal aging and renal function in the elderly. However, despite the relevance of this topic, there are few books exclusively dedicated to geriatric nephrology. This book fills this gap by presenting a comprehensive overview of the differences between normal renal aging and chronic renal disease in the aged, and describes the particular aspects of nephropathy in the elderly, add...
Organ Crosstalk in Acute Kidney Injury
This is an original work dedicated to an important and current topic in nephrology: organ crosstalk in acute renal injury. Acute kidney injury is a prevalent and serious syndrome. The related mortality to this syndrome has not been significantly reduced in the last decades despite the advances in renal replacement therapy technology. For this reason, a new approach to obtain an effective treatment is urgently needed. The organ crosstalk perspective could be useful in order to achieve this objective since it implies a very early acute kidney injury diagnose and treatment. This book includes a comprehensive review of the organ crosstalk perspective in acute kidney injury. Organized in two part...
Frailty and Kidney Disease
This unique book reviews the information available in the literature regarding the new syndrome, frailty, in patients with various renal conditions, such as acute kidney injury, chronic kidney disease, as well as dialysis and transplant patients. The topic is of importance in nephrology, specifically nephrogeriatrics, since frailty is a condition affecting many elderly patients and which is becoming increasingly common in medical practice. As such, there is a considerable need for information to assist professionals treating these patients. The book includes chapters on the frailty syndrome (definition, evaluation and treatment), the main geriatric syndromes (gait disorder, falls, incontinence, and delirium), the main renal syndromes (acute renal injury, chronic kidney disease) as well as dialysis and kidney transplant, and the relationship between geriatrics and renal syndromes. Frailty and Kidney Disease: A Practical Guide to Clinical Management is an essential resource for general practitioners, researchers, internal medicine physicians, geriatricians, and nephrologists.

Nefrología y urología
Esta obra presenta un compendio resumido, claro y conciso, útil para los médicos no especializados en la materia, así como para los estudiantes en su formación de pregrado, sobre las patologías que afectan a los riñones, vías urinarias y aparato genital masculino para el ejercicio médico, puesto que, en lo que no corresponde a nuestra especialización, todos somos médicos generales. Esta obra aborda la Nefrología, la Urología y la Andrología con una concepción actual integradora e interdisciplinar, escrita por especialistas del campo de la Nefrología, la Urología y la Medicina de Familia. Todos ellos atienden diariamente enfermos y por ello han logrado verter en cada uno de los capítulos su proceder clínico habitual y la forma real de abordarlas junto a las actualizaciones de estos temas. Los editores de este manual somos profesores de la asignatura de Nefrología y de Urología en la Facultad de Medicina de Salamanca y en nuestra experiencia asistencial y docente hemos decidido elaborar este manual que se ciñe y glosa el contenido de la Nefrourología.
Geriatría
Las personas adultas mayores aumentan en número y porcentaje, en prácticamente todos los países del mundo. La repercusión social, económica es muy importante; en el aspecto de salud tenemos diferentes puntos de vista, desde el que solo es el acumulo de alteraciones fisiológicas dadas por el mismo paso del tiempo o la suma de morbilidades y sus repercusiones. La capacidad intrínseca de la persona se ve mermada, lo que facilitará que la persona caiga en un estado de fragilidad que repercutirá con el paso del tiempo en la autonomía de la misma. La geriatría y la gerontología intentan integrar a la persona y verla como en su medio ambiente, con sus posibilidades y defectos; formand...
Hipertensión Arterial en la Práctica Clínica. Primera Edición
Prólogo Aunque pueda parecer utópico afirmar que la hipertensión arterial constituye uno de los grandes retos de la medicina moderna, la realidad de los grandes estudios epidemiológicos actuales sigue situando a la hipertensión como el factor de riesgo con mayor impacto en la mortalidad de los seres humanos. Hace años se había afirmado que era un proceso que afectaba eminentemente a las sociedades desarrolladas, es decir, una enfermedad asociada con el desarrollo económico y el progreso social. Tal paradigma está actualmente sometido a un cambio acelerado. En aquellos países en vías de desarrollo que han conseguido reducir significativamente la mortalidad por enfermedades transmis...
