Replacement of Renal Function by Dialysis
Completely revised edition of a global resource first published in 1978 and previously revised in 1989. Sixty-three contributions are arranged in sections on the pathophysiology of the uremic syndrome--principles and biophysics of dialysis; technology of dialysis and associated methods; quantification and prescription; complications; pharmacological considerations; special clinical situations; organ system and metabolic complications; and organization and results of chronic dialysis. The aim is to give understanding of the complexities of modern dialysis apparatus so that practitioners can make the best use of the technology--and so that fledgling nephrologists can avoid the temptation to by-pass the theory and the nuances.

Haemodialysis
For more than a generation haemodialysis has been the principal method of treating patients with both acute and chronic renal failure. Initially, developments and improvements in the system were highly technical and relevant to only a relatively small number of specialists in nephrology. More recently, as advances in therapy have dem onstrated the value of haemoperfusion for certain types of poisoning, the basic principles ofhaemodialysis have been perceived as important in many areas of clinical practice. In this volume, the potential advantages of bicarbonate haemo dialysis are objectively assessed, the technical and clinical aspects of both haemofiltration and haemoperfusion discussed and the con tinuing problems associated with such extracorporeal circuits analysed. All the chapters have been written by recognized experts in their field. The increasing availability of highly technical facilities for appropriately selected patients should ensure that the information contained in the book is relevant not only to nephrologists but to all practising clinicians.
Peritoneal Dialysis
Peritoneal dialysis represents an internal technique for membrane are becoming apparent. Studies of peritoneal blood purification. In this dialyzer the blood path, the dialysis increase understanding of the anatomy and phy membrane and the dialysate compartment are provided by siology of biological membranes and the factors influencing nature. The developments of chronic peritoneal catheters, the passive movement of solutes across the microcirculation and related structures. Peritoneal dialysis provides a 'win automated cycling equipment, solution preparation by reversed osmosis, manipulations of transport with drugs dow' to the visceral microcirculation in animals and hu and the experiences...
Replacement of Renal Function by Dialysis
The leading textbook on the subject. A completely rewritten and up-to-date fifth edition, based upon the highly respected fourth edition, edited by C. Jacobs, C.M. Kjellstrand, K.M. Koch and J.F. Winchester. Considered the global resource for dialysis specialists, dialysis manufacturers and scientists for over two decades, this authoritative, highly acclaimed major reference work has been completely rewritten and revised in a much-awaited 5th edition. All previous chapters have been updated to include the very latest advancements and understandings in this critical and complex field. New sections include those on computerization of dialysis records, online monitoring and biofeedback, patient sexual function, patient selection and integration, use of exercise in improving patient health, design of randomized trials, and more. This new edition is truly global in scope and features the contributions the top experts from around the world.
DERMATOTOXICOLOGY 4ED
A guide to the field of dermatotoxicology. This edition includes fundamental information on the mechanisms of action of toxic substances on skin as well as practical information on the varied responses of skin to specific toxic substances and approaches to evaluating dermal toxicity. Other topics discussed include: hostile natural elements, such as ultraviolet radiation, poisonous plants, man-made detergents and chemicals; problems associated with chronic occupational skin exposure to toxic chemicals; animal alternative research programmes; carcinogenic and Photo Carcinogenic Potential Of Xenobiotic Chemicals; Oculotoxicity; Risk assessment and management; and cosmetic safety. Anatomical factors affecting barrier functions/ lipids of the permeability barrier/the skin immune system.
Novel Carbon Adsorbents
Following in the lineage of Adsorption by Carbons (Bottani & Tascon, 2008), this work explores current research within contemporary novel carbon adsorbents. Both basic and applied aspects are discussed for this important class of materials. The first section of the book introduces physical adsorption and carbonaceous materials, and is followed by a section concerning the fundamentals of adsorption by carbons. This leads to development of a series of theoretical concepts that serve as an introduction to the following section in which adsorption is mainly envisaged as a tool to characterize the porous texture and surface chemistry of carbons. Particular attention is paid to novel nanocarbons, ...
Therapy of Renal Diseases and Related Disorders
A handsome and rugged practical text and ready reference, revised and expanded with 13 new chapters, that blends theory and basic science with practical clinical applications for optimal therapeutic benefit. The 62 contributed chapters are logically organized into eight parts: disorders of fluid, electrolyte, and acid-base balance; intrinsic parenchymal disease; renal involvement in systemic disease; hereditary and congenital diseases; neoplasia; chemical and physical injuries; chronic renal failure; and miscellaneous (i.e. the catheter; and nonsurgical management of vesicourethral dysfunction).
