Pediatric Nephrology
Here is an extensive update of Pediatric Nephrology, which has become the standard reference text in the field. It is global in perspective and reflects the international group of editors, who are well-recognized experts in pediatric nephrology. Within this text, the development of kidney structure and function is followed by detailed and comprehensive chapters on all childhood kidney diseases.
Principles and Practice of Pediatric Nephrology
This new edition presents the latest developments in paediatric nephrology. Divided into fourteen sections, the book begins with an introduction to the basics of nephrology and the physiology of fluids, electrolytes and minerals, followed by renal evaluation and clinical syndromes. The following sections provide detailed coverage of the diagnosis and management of different renal disorders that may be encountered in children, including chronic kidney disease and acute kidney injury. Three chapters are dedicated to neonatal nephrology and the final section covers topics such as urinary tract infection, rickets and infectious diseases and the kidney. The second edition has been fully updated and features nearly 400 images, illustrations and tables to enhance learning. The extensive author team includes contributors from Connecticut, North Carolina, Missouri and Great Ormond Street Hospital, London.

IgA Nephropathy Today
A further step towards unraveling this mysterious disease Primary IgA nephropathy has first been described as a new disease entity almost 40 years ago. This disorder, considered to be an immune-complex-mediated glomerulonephritis, is characterized by granular deposition of IgA (mainly IgA1) and C3 in the glomerular mesangial areas and is defined as nephropathy showing proliferative changes in the glomerular mesangial cells and increases in the mesangial matrices. Apart from being one of the most common types of chronic glomerulonephritis, it is also the most frequent case of end-stage renal disease. But even though continuing efforts have gradually clarified various aspects of the pathogenes...
Pediatric Nephrology
Over the course of the previous seven editions, Pediatric Nephrology has become the standard reference text for students, trainees, practicing physicians (pediatricians, nephrologists, internists, and urologists), subspecialists, and allied health professionals seeking information about children’s kidney diseases. It is global in perspective, reflecting the fact that the international group of editors are all acknowledged world experts.

Mechanical Loading of Bones and Joints
Bones and joints are always under mechanical loading a key concept in understanding bone metabolism. Among the most common diseases of bones and joints in the elderly are osteoporosis and joint osteoarthritis. Dynamic changes in mechanical loading give rise to problems resulting in stenosis of the spinal column at the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar levels. Mechanical loading also accelerates joint destruction caused by inflammation from such conditions as chronic rheumatoid arthritis. An understanding of mechanical loading is essential therefore to clinicians, basic researchers, and engineers working with bones and joints. Providing up-to-date research and clinical findings, the contents of this volume are from the papers, symposia, and special lectures presented at the 12th Annual Meeting of the Orthopaedic Research Meeting of the Japanese Orthopaedic Association in Niigata, in October 1997.
