The purpose of the present volume is to focus on more recent aspects of the complex regulation of hormonal action, in particular in 3 different hot fields: metabolism, growth and reproduction. Modern approaches to the physiology and pathology of endocrine glands are based on cellular and molecular investigation of genes, peptide, hormones, protein cascade at different levels. In all of the chapters in the book all, or at least some, of these aspects are described in order to increase the endocrine knowledge.

Written cases provide a thoughtful review of modern management and contemplation of the literature, much more so than even a case presentation without the patient. As a result, in recent years the written or prepared case has become the ideal forum for demonstrating how to manage a medical problem to the greatest benefit of the patient. In A Case-Based Guide to Clinical Endocrinology, distinguished clinicians provide stimulating instruction and insights into a wide variety of endocrine subjects, teaching readers modern management of the conditions described and offering targeted entry into the literature. Importantly, many of the important elements in the current curriculum for clinical endocrine training as recommended by the Association of Program Directors in Clinical Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolism are covered in this text. To reinforce learning and retention of knowledge, each author has also provided multiple choice questions following the case studies. Students, residents, fellows, and practitioners will find these examples to be an efficient way to review their understanding and increase their skills and abilities in patient investigation and management. In all, A Case-Based Guide to Clinical Endocrinology offers a comprehensive volume of concise case-studies that will prove to be of significant importance to all clinicians practicing in this field.

Since the beginning of the current century, endocrine disease diagnosis and treatment have moved beyond the standard hormone measurements. While, indeed elevated thyroid hormone levels or low insulin levels signal a specific endocrine disease, correct diagnosis (and therefore correct treatment) depends on an understanding of the molecular basis for the disease. This book presents the ""bench to bedside"" approach of our understanding of the genetic basis for endocrine disease. It is organized by endocrine grouping (e.g. Thyroid, Pancreas, Parathyroid, Pituitary, Adrenal, Reproductive and Bone)

"From the foundations to the clinical picture" was the motto of the 18th Henning Symposium on the human thyroid which was held in Heidelberg in October 2007. The proceedings are brought together in this volume to accompany the symposium. "Von den Grundlagen zur Klinik", so lautete das Motto des 18. Henning-Symposiums über die menschliche Schilddrüse, die im Oktober 2007 in Heidelberg abgehalten wurde. Die präsentierten Ergebnisse werden in diesem Symposiumsband zusammengefasst. Aus dem Inhalt: Grundlagen und Diagnostik von Schilddrüsenknoten Medikamentöse, nuklearmedizinische und chirurgische Strumatherapie Therapie und Nachsorge differenzierter Schilddrüsenkarzinome C-Zellkarzinome Grundlagen, Klinik und Therapie der Hypothyreose Grundlagen und Diagnostik der funktionellen Autonomie und des Morbus Basedow Therapie der funktionellen Autonomie und des Morbus Basedow
