Njurmedicin presenteras här i sin femte upplaga. Samtliga kapitel har genomgått en omfattande bearbetning med utgångspunkt i den senaste evidensen. Ett nyskrivet kapitel om elektrolyt- och syra–basreglering har lagts till. Njurmedicin ger därmed en bred framställning av dagens diagnostik och terapi av medicinska njursjukdomar.

Boken är indelad i fyra avdelningar som behandlar njurarnas anatomi, funktion och diagnostik, njurens sjukdomar, utredning och behandling av akut och kronisk njursvikt, samt översikter av njurarnas roll i generella sjukdomstillstånd som högt blodtryck och hjärtsjukdom.

Boken riktar sig till läkarutbildningen på grundnivå och till specialistutbildningarna inom invärtesmedicin, kirurgi och intensivvård. Den har sin givna plats även i andra vårdutbildningar och i fortbildningen i sluten och öppen vård. Som uppslagsbok i vardagsarbetet på sjukhus och mottagningar runt om i landet fyller Njurmedicin ett stort behov.

Om författarnaRedaktörerna Mattias Aurell, Ola Samuelsson, Gregor Guron och Aso Saeed – alla njurmedicinare från Sahlgrenska universitetssjukhuset i Göteborg – har samlat ledande svenska experter och själva skrivit om sina specialområden.

"Det är början av oktober. Nu går det inte längre, jag väger trettionio kilo och jag känner att jag håller på att dö. En vän som inte sett mig på länge får en chock och säger att det här är galet. Jag samlade mod och gick till vårdcentralen ännu en gång. Läkaren skriver en akutremiss till Huddinge sjukhus medicinakuten att de måste ta över och lägga in mig. När jag låg där helt likblek och halvdöd på britsen fick jag frågan av läkaren om jag kunde göra mina vanliga sysslor, såsom att jobba och träna. Jag kände mig så obeskrivligt misstrodd. Hur kunde hon ställa en sådan fråga när jag precis berättat om mina symptom och när jag inte ens orkade sitta upp utan var tvungen att ligga ner under hela läkarbesöket? Det var natt. Det var mörkt i huset. Det var mitt livs kamp. Jag var tjugotre år gammal när jag lämnade mitt flickrum och kröp in i min pappas sovrum. Jag ville inte dö ensam." DIAGNOS: KORTISOLSVIKT är en antologi med sjutton djupt personliga berättelser om livet före och efter diagnosen Binjurebarksvikt. Det är historierna om livet som inte blev. Det är berättelserna om den obeskrivliga tröttheten, magproblemen, huvudvärken och ångesten. Om sjukvården som misstrodde, bagatelliserade och tittade åt andra hållet. Om att svårt sjuk tvingas strida mot läkare för att rädda sitt eget liv inne på sjukhus. Om läkarna som hävdade att det var psykiskt, ta en skogspromenad eller varför inte göra lite yoga – när personerna i själva verket långsamt höll på att dö i full kortisolsvikt. Den här boken är till dig som kämpar, både med och utan diagnos eller till vem som helst som är intresserad av relationen mellan svensk sjukvård och den lilla människan.

Social responsibility in healthcare is currently the subject of increasing attention around the world and is often presented as one of the necessary responses to improving health systems in developed countries. The absence of African data on this subject motivated a survey that aimed to assess social responsibility of African public hospitals in terms of management of kidney disease, and explore the factors that influence it. based on patient and physician perceptions. This work has highlighted the crucial role of hospital governance and management, (involving the various stakeholders) in improving hospital social responsibility, and consequently the provision of care.

Renal Disease in Cancer Patients is a translational reference detailing the nephrological problems unique to patients with cancer in an organized and authoritative fashion. This book provides a common language for nephrologists, oncologists, hematologists, and other clinicians who treat cancer patients, to discuss the development of renal diseases in the context of cancer and options for their optimum diagnosis, management, and treatment.With the advent of better supportive care and the era of personalized medicine, patients with cancer are living longer, and oncologists and nephrologists now recognize the serious consequences of renal disease among these patients. Designed especially with this new need in mind, Renal Disease in Cancer Patients presents the various renal diseases affecting cancer patients in a single, authoritative volume. The book covers topics in radiation nephritis, obstructive nephropathy, drug nephropathy, graft-versus-host disease, and more.- Covers clinical description, diagnostics, management, and treatment throughout along with genetics, animal models, and pathology in specific chapters- Summarizes all renal diseases unique to cancer patients in a single reference- Provides a resource for oncologists and nephrologists, as well as general internal and family medicine practitioners, and physicians in training

Chronic Renal Disease comprehensively investigates the physiology, pathophysiology, treatment, and management of chronic kidney disease (CKD). This translational reference takes an in-depth look at CKD while excluding coverage of dialysis or transplantation, which are both well detailed in other textbooks and references. Chapters in the basic science sections are devoted to the scientific underpinnings of the development and progression of CKD, including consideration of different etiologic factors. Chapters in the treatment and management sections are geared towards the most common problems faced by nephrologists in the management of CKD. Each chapter relates specific illnesses to the CKD framework instead of covering only the specific illness. Readers will learn, for example, how the management of CKD in a patient with diabetic nephropathy differs from that of other CKD patients. Chapters indicate which unique complications the reader needs to be aware of when treating a specific patient or disease.Chronic Renal Disease includes a companion web-based question and answer supplement to each chapter. This is a valuable resource to reinforce the content of the chapters. The questions are multiple-choice, clinically focused and include referenced discussions of answers. The questions can be used for medical student, resident and fellow teaching, preparation for board or maintenance of certification examinations, and clinician teaching or conference preparation.- Provides a useful resource to professors who need to create lectures for residents and fellows, and to identify and summarize relevant literature as it relates to various research projects- Includes multiple choice questions and answers, which can be used as a teaching tool for conferences and continuing medical education activities- Includes coverage of classification and measurement, epidemiology, pathophysiology, complications of CKD, fluid / electrolyte disorders in CKD, CKD and systemic illnesses, clinical considerations, therapeutic considerations, and special considerations

Genetic approaches have revolutionized our understanding of the fundamental causes of human disease by permitting the identification of specific genes in which variation causes or contributes to susceptibility to, or protection from, disease. More than 2,000 disease genes have been identified in the last 20 years, providing important new insight into the pathophysiology of diseases in every field of medicine. Genetic Diseases of the Kidney offers expert insight into the role of genetic abnormalities in the pathogenesis of abnormal kidney function and kidney disease. Genetic abnormalities are carefully presented within the appropriate physiologic context so that readers will understand not only which genes are linked to which diseases but also which pathways lead from a genetic "disturbance� to the systemic appearance of disease. Lays the essential foundation of mammalian genetics principles for medical professionals with little or no background in genetics Analyzes specific renal diseases - both monogenic disorders confined to the kidney and systemic diseases with renal involvement - and explains their genetic causes World-renowned editors and authors offer expert frameworks for understanding the links between genes and complex clinical disorders (i.e., lupus, diabetes, HIV, and hypertension)

Organogenesis of the kidney has been intensely studied for over a century. In recent years advances in molecular techniques have not only made great inroads into exploring the genetic regulation of this complex process but also began to unravel the molecular basis of many forms of congenital kidney disease. This book is a comprehensive study on these findings and the only book available with such in depth coverage of the kidney. Hundreds of color figures depicting key events in all aspects of kidney development Full coverage of the genetic and cellular basis of kidney development Analysis of the genetic basis of the major congenital kidney diseases
