Описание: Hormones are vital to the workings of the body, and while many people are aware of what hormones do, few have an appreciation of the nature and importance of the endocrine system. In this Very Short Introduction, Martin Luck explains what hormones are, what they do, where they come from, and how they work.

Описание: Drawing on the considerable clinical and research experience of its authors, HRT and the Endometrium discusses endometrial changes in the clinical context as well as the molecular level. The book explores techniques for endometrial evaluation in post-menopausal women on HRT, including the first analysis of histomorphometry for quantitating endometrial changes. It emphasizes the connection between postmenopausal bleeding and HRT, summarizing statistical methods for the assessment of bleeding patterns and outlining the clinical options for avoiding this complication. In addition, the authors highlight strategie s for overcoming the problem of compliance that are common with HRT.HRT and the Endometrium is an essential reference for gynecologists, geriatric specialists, and family practitioners. With its comprehensive coverage of clinical guidelines and the underlying molecular events of the menopause, it is an important, timely guide for clinicians concerned with the management of menopausal symptoms.

Описание: Physiolical adaptations and pathological states resulting from changes oftarget tissue sensitivity to hormones are vital concerns in endocrinology. Part of the Modern Endocrinology series, this text features anoverview of the human hormone resistance and hypersensitivity syndromes due to pre-receptor, receptor and postreceptor abnormalities. The book focuses on the pivotal study of the etiology of common conditions, such as obesity andessential hypertension in chapters written by experts who have performedprimary research in hormone action.

Описание: Thyroid hormone plays an important role in development and functional maintenance in the central nervous system. Deficiency of thyroid hormone during fetal and early postnatal life induces abnormal development known as cretinism in humans. However, the molecular mechanism of thyroid hormone action has not yet been fully understood. Thyroid hormone action in the brain may be disrupted under various pathological conditions. In addition, environmental factors including endocrine-disrupting chemicals and bacterial endotoxins may disrupt thyroid hormone action in brain, causing abnormal brain development and functional disruption. This is a first book to comprehensively describe the effect of thyroid hormone disruption in the central nervous system. The first section deals with the disruption of thyroid hormone action at the molecular level. First the authors provide a summary of the possible molecular mechanisms of thyroid hormone action in the brain, then they discuss several factors that may disrupt thyroid hormone action. In the second section, animal models to study thyroid hormone action will be introduced. An interesting character of thyroid hormone deficiency is that, without thyroid hormone, the thyroid hormone receptor may act as a “repressor” of gene expression, causing more severe consequence than those of thyroid hormone receptor knockout animals. Thus, several different kind of animal models may be used to clarify the role of thyroid hormone and its receptor in the brain. In the third section, human studies on thyroid disease and neurodevelopment will be introduced. Although endemic cretinism induced by iodine deficiency and sporadic cretinism by various thyroid mutation are well known, the pathophysiological mechanisms that create each abnormal phenotype are not fully understood. ?

Описание: Since hormone replacement therapy has to be carefully tailored to individual patients, it can initially have unpleasant side-effects. Many patients discontinue it without allowing the opportunity for adjustment and re-assessment. This volume reviews all the clinical considerations related to HRt and the benefits it can have for patient quality of life. It provides guidance on improving patient compliance and assessemnt of each therapeutic option. It gives the reader the information they need to more quickly tailor HRT to each individual patient, decreasing the impact that HRT can have on their quality of life and increasing its impact on their health.
