A Reason to Live
A Reason to Live explores the human-animal relationship through the narratives of eleven people living with HIV and their animal companions. The narratives, based on a series of interviews with HIV-positive individuals and their animal companions in Australia, span the entirety of the HIV epidemic, from public awareness and discrimination in the 1980s and 1990s to survival and hope in the twenty-first century. Each narrative is explored within the context of theory (for example, attachment theory, the "biophilia hypothesis," neurochemical and neurophysiological effects, laughter, play, death anxiety, and stigma) in order to understand the unique bond between human and animal during an "epide...

Angiotensin II Receptor Blockade Physiological and Clinical Implications
The relationship between angiotensin II and hypertension was established in 1898 when angiotensin II was shown to modulate systemic blood pressure. Over the intervening decades, a complete characterization of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) has been achieved, and our understanding of its biochemistry and physiology has led to the directed development of agents such ·as ACE inhibitors and receptor antagonists capable of controlling hypertension. More recently, it was shown that angiotensin II is secreted within certain tissues and that these tissue-specific systems operate independently of the systemic RAS. The novel concept that angiotensin II regulates a number of cardiovascular process...
Comprehensive Handbook of Iodine
Over two billion people worldwide are at risk for the spectrum of disorders known as "The Iodine Deficiency Disorders." 1-10% will suffer cretinism; 5-30% will have some sort of brain damage or neurological impairment and 30-70% will be hypothyroid. The causes of iodine deficiencies can be considered from both simplistic and more complex perspectives: From the leaching of iodine from soil resulting in crops with low iodine content to malnutrition resulting in impaired iodine absorption. Poor dietary diversification and impoverished socio-economic development can also lead to iodine deficiencies. Although it is possible to diagnose and treat deficiencies, there is still an ongoing dialogue re...

Batti Cuore
Bu-bum, bu-bum, bu-bum. È questo il suono del cuore, un organo che batte senza sosta, garantendo un afflusso di sangue ricco di nutrienti e ossigeno a ogni angolo del corpo, per un totale di circa 8.500 litri pompati ogni giorno. Nel venire a sapere che il nonno era morto d’infarto dieci anni prima della sua nascita, ogni volta che guardava uno dei suoi ritratti, Johannes si chiedeva come un uomo all’apparenza tanto forte e in salute potesse essere stato stroncato da una cosa così piccola, grande quanto un pugno chiuso. Fu allora che in lui maturò l’interesse di saperne di più, affascinato com’era dai segreti del nostro organo più irrinunciabile. Da bambino, divorò tutti i libr...
