Arsenic Exposure and Health Effects IV
This collected volume of authoritative articles represents the state-of-the-art in arsenic research. Arsenic experts from around the world, participants in the Fourth International Conference on Arsenic Exposure and Health Effects organized by the Society of Environmental Geochemistry and Health in 2000, present their critical findings.A vital contribution to arsenic study and policy making, this volume examines the global impact of the toxin and discusses arsenic in the environment, mechanisms of arsenic metabolism and carcinogenesis, water treatment technology, and medical care. Arsenic Exposure and Health Effects offers informed, challenging insights into a highly important and controversial topic.
Essentials of Medical Geology
Essentials of Medical Geology reviews the essential concepts and practical tools required to tackle environmental and public health problems. It is organized into four main sections. The first section deals with the fundamentals of environmental biology, the natural and anthropogenic sources of health elements that impact health and illustrate key biogeochemical transformations. The second section looks at the geological processes influencing human exposure to specific elements, such as radon, arsenic, fluorine, selenium and iodine. The third section presents the concepts and techniques of pathology, toxicology and epidemiology that underpin investigations into the human health effects of ex...
Metal Ions
This is Volume 9 of the ninth International Symposium on Metal Ions in Biology and Medicine that was held in Lisbon, Portugal in May 2006. It comprises a host of papers from internationally regarded authorities in the field.
Metal Ions in Biology and Medicine
The objective of the 6th ISMIBM is to foster exchange of opinions between professionals and specialists working on analysis, research and applications of metal ions, trace elements and minerals in biological, biochemical, medical sciences, toxicology and environmental health. The scientific program, composed of plenary and concurrent sessions, and poster presentations is designed to promote intensive and productive dialogue among experts in these fields. A special program with short courses and mini-symposia have also been organised, featuring specialised areas including toxicology, analysis, pathology, remediation strategies, and environmental medicine. Original contributions (oral and/or p...

Advanced Approaches in the Diagnosis and Treatment of Diabetes Mellitus and Secondary Complications
As we know diabetes mellitus is the most common metabolic endocrine disorder. According to the WHO and American Diabetes Mellitus, diabetes mellitus is the 3rd leading cause of death if we were to include all secondary complications. However without including secondary complications, it is 7th place in mortality and morbidity. The point to be considered in the case of diabetes mellitus is the secondary complications caused in this condition. Almost all organs affected by diabetes and results in a potentially worse condition. The major secondary complications are neuropathy, nephropathy, retinopathy, and diabetes foot microvascular and macrovascular complications. The long term complications ...
Kodae Sosol
First Published in 2004. This work is concerned with kodae sos?l, particularly with investigating what kodae sos?l exist or have existed in texts in Korean in a traditional style. One aim of this catalogue of titles is to make it more widely known what there is to be read. It is hoped that those who can read them will do so, and perhaps even agree that they ought to be made easier, by reprinting, annotation or translation, for others to read.
The Indiana Companion to Traditional Chinese Literature
""A vertitable feast of concise, useful, reliable, and up-to-dateinformation (all prepared by top scholars in the field), Nienhauser's now two-volumetitle stands alone as THE standard reference work for the study of traditionalChinese literature. Nothing like it has ever been published."" --Choice The second volume to The Indiana Companion to TraditionalChinese Literature is both a supplement and an update to the original volume. VolumeII includes over 60 new entries on famous writers, works, and genres of traditionalChinese literature, followed by an extensive bibliographic update (1985-1997) ofeditions, translations, and studies (primarily in English, Chinese, Japanese, French, and German) for the 500+ entries of Volume I.
Arsenic Exposure and Health Effects III
The Society of Environmental Geochemistry and Health (SEGH) Third International Conference on Arsenic Exposure and Health Effects was held from July 12-15, 1998 in San Diego, California. Several outstanding papers and posters generated lively discussion and debate not only about scientific issues but also about policy and regulatory issues. While developed countries are considering spending perhaps billions of dollars per year to reach concentrations of 10 micrograms per liter or less, countries like Bangladesh, India and China are trying to deal with much more severe, epidemic scale, arsenic problems with millions of dollars or less. Like its predecessors in 1994 and 1995, The Third SEGH In...
