Lipocrinology describes the relationship between lipid metabolism and endocrine function in health and disease and adds a new dimension to the fields of both lipidology and endocrinology.Section 1 explores the impact of endocrine function on lipid health and the clinical utility of lipid parameters in decision-making in endocrine disorders.Section 2 discusses the impact of adipose tissue and lipid metabolism on endocrine health, and the endocrine aspects of lipidology.Section 3 focuses on the lipotropic effects of hormone-based therapies in various endocrine disorders including diabetes and describes the endocrine effects of lipid-lowering drugs, including recently introduced PCSK-9 inhibitors.Written by experts in the field with wide clinical and research experience, this book is presented in an easy-to-read format and is a must-read book for endocrinologists, lipidologists, cardiologists, internists, clinicians, and postgraduate students.

Provides a view of the complicated interaction of glucose metabolism with various endocrine hormones. This book covers various endocrinopathies which may cause secondary diabetes or are associated with metabolic syndrome and complications/comorbidities of diabetes that may delay the diagnosis of endocrine dysfunction. It also looks at different endocrinotropic drugs that may be used to manage diabetes or may be involved in worsening of diabetes.Written by experts in the field with wide clinical and research experience.Presented in an easy to read format.A valuable resource for endocrinologists, diabetologists, clinicians and postgraduate students.
