Physiology of the Gastrointestinal Tract
FROM THE PREFACE:The original purpose of the First Edition of Physiology of the Gastrointestinal Tractto collect in one set of volumes the most current and comprehensive knowledge in our fieldwas also the driving force for the Fourth Edition. The explosion of information at the cellular level, made possible in part by the continued emergence of powerful molecular and cellular techniques, has resulted in a greater degree of revision than that of any other edition. The first section, now titled "Basic Cell Physiology and Growth of the Gl Tract" contains numerous new chapters on topics such as transcriptional regulation, signaling networks in development, apoptosis, and mechanisms in malignanci...
Current Catalog
First multi-year cumulation covers six years: 1965-70.
Enteric Nervous System
Moreover, our incomplete understanding of the pathobiology of these disorders highlights a need for research directed to expansion of current knowledge of the neurobiology of the ENS at all levels of organization from the cellular biology of individual neurons to the biophysics of integrated networks to whole organ behavior. Investigation of the normal and disordered ENS and its interactions with the central nervous system is a branch of neurogastroenterology. Neurogastroenterology is a scientific and clinical subspecialty of gastroenterology that deals with the neural mechanisms that influence function of the digestive tract and that underlie projection of conscious sensations to the gut.
Medical Phisiology
Medical Physiology presents the physiological concepts essential to clinical medicine. Each chapter provides conceptual diagrams to facilitate comprehension of difficult concepts, and presents both normal and abnormal clinical conditions to illustrate how physiology serves as an important basis for diagnosis and treatment. Hallmark pedagogical features emphasize problem-solving skills and promote review and retention: Clinical Focus and From Bench to Bedside boxes, a comprehensive glossary, and online USMLE-style review questions with answers and explanations. Companion web site offers additional resources for students (question bank, animations, searchable text) and faculty (image and test banks, PowerPoint slides for use in class).

Physiology of the Gastrointestinal Tract, Two Volume Set
Physiology of the Gastrointestinal Tract, Fifth Edition — winner of a 2013 Highly Commended BMA Medical Book Award for Internal Medicine — covers the study of the mechanical, physical, and biochemical functions of the GI Tract while linking the clinical disease or disorder, bridging the gap between clinical and laboratory medicine. The gastrointestinal system is responsible for the breakdown and absorption of various foods and liquids needed to sustain life. Other diseases and disorders treated by clinicians in this area include: food allergies, constipation, chronic liver disease and cirrhosis, gallstones, gastritis, GERD, hemorrhoids, IBS, lactose intolerance, pancreatic, appendicitis,...
Innervation of the Gut
Innervation of the Gut provides a stimulating discussion of gut innervations based on exciting developments generated by advanced neuroanatomical and electrophysiological approaches. All components of the nervous system are covered, including central, spinal, autonomic, and enteric systems. This information is relative to secretory, motor, and immune regulatory functions of the gut, as well as visceral sensation. Brain transmitters involved in mediating stress-induced alterations of gastrointestinal motor function and the central regulation of vagal outflow to the gut are discussed in detail. The book will stimulate basic scientists and gastroenterologists to expand research efforts that may enable them to unravel the mechanisms of brain-gut interactions under physiological and pathological conditions. Students, psychologists, and psychiatrists will find Innervation of the Gut an essential reference for their studies.
