Current List of Medical Literature
Includes section, "Recent book acquisitions" (varies: Recent United States publications) formerly published separately by the U.S. Army Medical Library.
Energy Transformations in Living Matter
This survey was written at the invitation of the Editors of the "Ergebnisse der Physiologie". Its aim is to present the more recent progress in the know ledge of biological energy transformations. Since it was intended for a review journal, the reader was taken to be familiar with the fundamentals of current biochemistry, as described in the standard textbooks. It was not the object to compile an extensive collection of facts. The survey is limited to aspects of wider interest, and the main emphasis has been on the general unifying principles which emerge from the great mass of detailed ob servations. The article is reprinted in the hope that it may be useful in this form to advanced student...
Metabolic Inhibitors V1
Metabolic Inhibitors: A Comprehensive Treatise, Volume I focuses on the properties of inhibitors of metabolic processes or enzyme systems. The book explores a wide range of substances that interfere with (and usually retard) metabolic and enzymic processes, emphasizing the inhibitor rather than the metabolic or enzymic system that is affected. Organized into 15 chapters, this volume begins with a historical overview of research on the mode of action of biological inhibitors, touching on the principle of competitive inhibition by structural analogues. The book then turns to the concept of a competitive enzymic relationship by growth inhibitory analogues and their corresponding amino acids; th...

Comparative Biochemistry V5
Comparative Biochemistry: A Comprehensive Treatise, Volume V: Constituents of Life—Part C focuses on the structure and distribution of amino acids, distribution and metabolism of inorganic nitrogen compounds, acid metabolism, and comparative biochemistry of halides. The selection first offers information on the structure and distribution of amino acids and the distribution and metabolism of inorganic nitrogen compounds. Discussions focus on proteinogenous amino acids, nonproteinogenous amino acids, general aspects of inorganic nitrogen metabolism, and distribution and metabolism of nitrate, nitrite, and molecular nitrogen, ammonia, and hydrazine. The text then tackles citric acid cycle and other cycles and comparative biochemistry of collagen. The publication examines photosynthesis and halides. Topics include transfer of energy along the photosynthetic chain, carbon dioxide reduction, photosynthesis and phosphorylation, quantum yields and the efficiency of light energy conversion, chlorine, bromine, and iodine. The selection is a dependable source of data for readers interested in the constituents of life.
Epidemiology of Cancer of the Digestive Tract
The digestive organs are the most frequent site of cancer in the world, accounting for approximately 30% of all malignant tumors. This prominent position has been present for many decades in spite of marked shifts in the freq uency of cancer of specific organs. The most remarkable shift has been the decrease in gastric cancer rates occurring concomitantly with an increase in colon cancer rates in most 'western' industrialized societies. Important exceptions to this rule, as well as other epidemiologic evidence, indicate that the opposite trends for gastric and colon cancers are not inevitable consequences of each other. Although genetic ally determined precancerous syndromes are well recogni...
