Trials and Triumphs- A Teacher’s Life Journey
The quote sums up the role of teachers in student’s life. The influence of a teacher extends beyond the four walls of a class room and plays a significant role in molding and shaping the life of a student. Rather the teacher-student bond is the foundation stone of building the life of a student. I am lucky to be a teacher who had a great influence on the lives of many medical students. The bond, and rapport between the teacher and the student is unique and beyond explanation. I have the privilege of being a teacher for over four decades having taught couple of thousand students who now adorn the garden of Medicine. I will just narrate one incident that describes the beauty and greatness of...

Type 2 diabetes is now a global serious health problem. Patients with type 2 diabetes have 2-4 times higher risk of cardiovascular and renal complications, morbidity and mortality. This book, Type 2 Diabetes, is a unique book covering the topics including pathophysiology, complications and prevention and treatments. Understanding the etiology of the onset and development of type 2 diabetes is important to prevent type 2 diabetes complications and delay the progress. The Pathophysiology section covers a wide range of mechanisms and characteristics from the micro (molecular) to the macro (neurohormonal mechanisms and the beta-cell function in the pancreas). The Complications section includes renal complications, sympathetic nervous system imbalance, atherosclerosis, and foot ulcers which are frequently observed in diabetic patients. Finally, the Prevention and Treatments section consists of non-pharmacological treatments, bariatric surgery, pharmacological therapy, and insulin therapy.

Role of the Adipocyte in Development of Type 2 Diabetes
Adipocytes are important in the body for maintaining proper energy balance by storing excess energy as triglycerides. However, efforts of the last decade have identified several molecules that are secreted from adipocytes, such as leptin, which are involved in signaling between tissues and organs. These adipokines are important in overall regulation of energy metabolism and can regulate body composition as well as glucose homeostasis. Excess lipid storage in tissues other than adipose can result in development of diabetes and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). In this book we review the role of adipocytes in development of insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes and NAFLD. Because type 2 diabetes has been suggested to be a disease of inflammation we included several chapters on the mechanism of inflammation modulating organ injury. Finally, we conclude with a review on exercise and nutrient regulation for the treatment of type 2 diabetes and its co-morbidities.

Medizin und Ethik in Zeiten von Corona
Die Corona-Pandemie tötet Menschen, gefährdet Familien, Freunde, Gemeinschaften, Unternehmen, Gesellschaften, Wirtschaften und globale Netzwerke. Es ruft die Triage wieder auf den Plan, Arbeitslosigkeit, Abstandsregelungen und Home Schooling. Die Länder antworten verschieden, schränken oft Büürger- und Grundrechte ein. Familien und Freunde können sich nicht sehen, ihre Kranken nicht besuchen und die Sterbenden nicht begleiten. Diese Pestilenz ist eine kulturelle, wirtschaftliche und politische Krankheit. 16 füührende Wissenschaftler in Medizin und Soziologie, Politik, Religion und Beratung bieten diverse, teils kontroverse Antworten, zusammengestellt von Martin Woesler (Changsha und Witten/Herdecke) und Hans-Martin Sass (Washington DC/Bochum).
