Biologic Foundations for Skeletal Tissue Engineering
Tissue engineering research for bone and joint applications entails multidisciplinary teams bringing together the needed expertise in anatomy, biology, biochemistry, pathophysiology, materials science, biomechanics, fluidics, and clinical and veterinary orthopedics. It is the goal of this volume to provide students and investigators who are entering this exciting area with an understanding of the biologic foundations necessary to appreciate the problems in bone and cartilage that may benefit from innovative tissue engineering approaches. This volume includes state-of-the-art information about bone and cartilage physiology at the levels of cell and molecular biology, tissue structure, develop...

Bioprinting
Of the 121,000 people on donor lists in the U.S., over 100,000 need kidney transplants and thousands die each year while waiting. Bioprinting aspires to build healthy kidney tissue from a patient's own cells and transplant this to boost failing kidneys without fear of rejection...As the twenty-first century dawned, a handful of inspired scientists tried to use 3D printing to create living human tissue: to 3D print living human cells with a functional organization. Their vision was to restore the health of people with intractable injuries-worn out cartilage, severed nerves,ailing kidneys, failing hearts-the gamut of human frailties. Their modest success energized others to join the quest. Now...
The Aging Skeleton
The Aging Skeleton is a comprehensive and timely book on all aspects of the skeleton as it ages, including basic mechanisms and pathways as well as pathobiology. Chapters cover general aspects and models of aging, determinants and maintenance of peak bone mass, mechanisms of age-related bone loss, quantifiable manifestations of age-related bone loss, fractures, and therapeutics. Covers all aspects of the aging skeleton in one comprehensive volume Looks at the influence of genetics, nutrition, environment, hormones, and other factors on bone mass Provides a thorough discussion of fractures, one of the major consequences of the aging skeleton Reviews current therapeutic approaches and methods Written by internationally renowned authors and edited by leaders in the field Is the only book available on this subject
Osteoporosis
LA WRENCE G. RAISZ, MD Division of Endocrinology and Metabolism, University of Connecticut Health Center. Farmington. CT The rapid transfer of new knowledge concerning the pathogenesis, diagnosis, preven tion, and treatment of disease into clinical practice has always been a major challenge in medicine. This challenge is particularly difficult to meet in osteoporosis, not only because has been so much new knowledge generated in recent years, but also because this there disorder has not caught the attention of many practicing physicians. The goal of this volume is to help primary care physicians develop a better understanding of osteoporosis and a more effective approach to diagnosis, prevent...
The Physiologic Basis of Surgery
Established as a standard basic science text for surgeons and for residents preparing for the board exam, this authoritative text is written by renowned educators with experience preparing surgical residency curricula. The book presents complex physiologic concepts clearly, with numerous illustrations.
Advances in Geroscience
This book provides the first comprehensive overview of a new scientific discipline termed Geroscience. Geroscience examines the molecular and cellular mechanisms that might explain why aging is the main risk factor for most chronic diseases affecting the elderly population. Over the past few decades, researchers have made impressive progress in understanding the genetics, biology and physiology of aging. This book presents vital research that can help readers to better understand how aging is a critical malleable risk factor in most chronic diseases, which, in turn, could lead to interventions that can help increase a healthy lifespan, or ‘healthspan.’ The book begins with an analysis of...
Operative Arthroscopy
Extensively revised and updated for its Third Edition, Operative Arthroscopy remains the most comprehensive and authoritative reference in this rapidly advancing specialty. World-renowned experts describe the latest instrumentation and techniques and detail proven minimally invasive procedures for the knee, shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, foot, ankle, and spine. New topics in this edition include meniscus repair with implantable devices, arthroscopic knot tying, and arthroscopy in athletes. Hundreds of full-color arthroscopic views, surgical exposures, and line drawings guide surgeons in technique and clinical decision-making. This edition includes a free DVD of surgical procedures, with over 200 minutes of video to demonstrate key points and techniques.
