Chronobiology: Principles and Applications to Shifts in Schedules
Proceedings of the NATO Advanced Study Institute, Hannover, Germany, July 13-25, 1979
Chronomics and Continuous Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring
This fascinating volume applies the concept of chronomics to the medical treatment of hypertension. It starts with the recent updates on chronomics, the analytic techniques, and their application to community-based assessments. The authors advocate the use of 7-day/24-h records of blood pressure, which is effective for finding masked hypertension, masked morning surge, and other rhythm abnormalities. Most organisms, from cyanobacteria to mammals, are known to use the circadian mechanism. However, our body systems also demonstrate circaseptan (roughly weekly), circannual (roughly yearly), and even longer rhythms. Chronomics monitors the physiological data and then analyzes the superimposed rhythms, isolating the cycles mathematically to determine how organisms and their environment interact. It is the study of interactions among time structures (chronomes) in and around us.
Chronobiology and Chronomedicine
Chronobiology and Chronomedicine is an ideal introduction for postgraduates in various fields, reviewing developments and outlining methods to show the depth and breadth of chronobiology, as well as an invaluable companion to researchers with an interest in developing novel therapeutic approaches.
Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring
The availability of new technologies that enable blood pressure to be measured and re corded continuously or repetitively during prolonged observation periods has created ex citing opportunities for studying the physiology of blood pressure regulation and the characteristics of clinical hypertension. Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring has been based on three types of approach. The first of these has utilized an intra-arterial catheter that allows blood pressure to be meas ured directly and continuously during a full 24-hour period. The second approach is based on non-invasive techniques, and utilizes devices capable of automatically inflating conventional arm cuffs and recording blood pres...
Modern Dietary Fat Intakes in Disease Promotion
The Nutrition and Health series of books have had great success because each volume has the consistent overriding mission of providing health professionals with texts that are essential because each includes (1) a synthesis of the state of the science, (2) timely, in-depth reviews by the leading researchers in their respective ?elds, (3) extensive, up-to-date fully annotated ref- ence lists, (4) a detailed index, (5) relevant tables and ?gures, (6) identi?cation of paradigm shifts and the consequences, (7) virtually no overlap of information between chapters, but targeted, inter-chapter referrals, (8) suggestions of areas for future research, and (9) balanced, data-driven answers to patient ...
Chronobiotechnology and Chronobiological Engineering
High blood pressure (BP) (with fats and smoking) is one of the three roots of cardio-cerebro-renovascular disease affecting up to 25% of the adult population. Hence, high blood pressure should be recognized and treated, to reduce any complications and prolong life, as noted by Michael Weber of the Veterans Administration Hospital in Long Beach, California. He further emphasizes the need for monitoring before one starts the treatment of high blood pressure. Indeed, he refers to the results of the Australian study on mild hypertension with a large percentage of placebo responders and rightly suggests that many people are treated who should not be because of 'white-coat-associated high blood pressure'. He also points to the lack of standardization of techniques for data analysis and of methods of BP measurement. Ambulatory monitoring under usual condi tions without concomitant recording of events does not allow even a qualitative assessment of the impact of varying stimuli, in weber's opinion.
Annual Review of Chronopharmacology
Annual Review of Chronopharmacology, Volume 2 presents a scholarly means of rapidly communicating findings and developments in chronopharmacology, which is considered a quickly emerging field. This text first discusses aspects and statistical procedures in chronobiology and chronopharmacology. This book then explains circadian and circannual changes in nephrotoxic effects of heavy metals and antibiotics; chronotoxicology and chronopharmacology with emphasis on carcinostatic agents; and chronopharmacology of cardiovascular medications. The chronopharmacology and chronotherapy of asthma are also tackled. This book concludes by explaining the chronopharmacology of antidepressant drugs and of the inflammatory process. This publication will be invaluable to those interested in the field of chronopharmacology.
AKRADINBOSOM: Akan Abosom of the Okra/Okraa (Soul) and the 7-Day Akan Week
AKRADINBOSOM: Akan Abosom of the Okra/Okraa (Soul) and the 7-Day Akan Week From Ancient Khanit (Nubia) to Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Africans) in America Volume 2: Abosomsem - Spiritual Cosmology - Awusi ne Adwoa (Ausar and Auset) Our publication of the six volume set, AKRADINBOSOM: Akan Abosom (Deities) of the Okra/Okraa and the 7-Day week – From Ancient Khanit (Nubia) to Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Africans) in America is the first of its kind. The Akradinbosom are a particular grouping of Abosom, the Akan term for Deities – the Divine Spirit-Forces in Creation. The Akradinbosom, the major Divine Powers Who animate the solar, lunar and planetary bodies which govern the seven-day week have...
Frontiers In Entropy Across The Disciplines - Panorama Of Entropy: Theory, Computation, And Applications
Frontiers in Entropy Across the Disciplines presents a panorama of entropy emphasizing mathematical theory, physical and scientific significance, computational methods, and applications in mathematics, physics, statistics, engineering, biomedical signals, and signal processing.In the last century classical concepts of entropy were introduced in the areas of thermodynamics, information theory, probability theory, statistics, dynamical systems, and ergodic theory. During the past 50 years, dozens of new concepts of entropy have been introduced and studied in many disciplines. This volume captures significant developments in this arena. It features expository, review, and research papers by dis...
