        Umesh Masharani, M. D.

    SUMMARY :
        Chances are that you have picked up this book because you or someone you love has just been diagnosed with diabetes or has had diabetes for a while and you are trying to understand the disease and how to take care of it. Like all medical conditions you may fi nd the language, medicines, and treatment recommendations complicated and confusing. You may also have heard that diabetes can cause blindness, nerve damage, or kidney failure, and you may be fearful that this could happen to you. It is true that these complications can occur if the diabetes is untreated or poorly controlled.
        With good care, however, all of these complications can be prevented. The goal of this book is to demystify diabetes and give you a clear picture of what it is and how it is treated. Living with diabetes can be challenging. It demands your attention several times a day, and you cannot ignore it for long. You have to acquire a new set of skills—learning to adjust medicines, diet, and physical activity.
        For individuals who are very organized, the adjustments demanded by diabetes are easily incorporated into their routines. For others, the diabetes can become a straightjacket, but it does not have to be this way—there is a lot that you can do to make your diabetes manageable. This book describes how you can acquire the skills necessary to incorporate diabetes care into your daily life without feeling overwhelmed.
        It may seem hard to believe, but there can be some positive aspects to a diagnosis of diabetes. First, unlike many other chronic illnesses, you can be in charge and you can control it. Second, the organizational skills and discipline that you develop caring for your diabetes can be successfully transferred to other aspects of your life. Third, once you have diabetes, you (and your doctor) will pay more attention to your health and you may in fact live longer and healthier.
        There are a lot of myths and misconceptions about diabetes such as “if you have diabetes, you cannot eat sweets” or “only kids get type 1 diabetes.” It is my hope that this book will dispel such myths and misconceptions and that you will come away with the knowledge and skills to take the very best care of your diabetes.

Pediatric - SECRETS Series (PDF Version)

    SOURCE :
        Pediatric - SECRETS Series - 5th Edition

    AUTHORS :
        Richard A. Polin, MD
        Mark F. Ditmar, MD

    SUMMARY :
        It has been more than 20 years (and in the interim one Phillies and two Red Sox World Series championships) since the publication of the initial Pediatric Secrets. With this new edition, we strove to continue the principles of past editions by incorporating topics and questions about common (and less common) pediatric issues that are discussed every day in inpatient and outpatient settings. It is a constant dialogue involving pathophysiology, diagnosis, and therapy that leads to greater understanding. We have again tried to highlight major areas in pediatrics that remain controversial and less clearly defined.
        We thank the chapter authors for their diligence in revising and updating, particularly in more novel aspects of pediatric medicine. We are very grateful to Andrea Vosburgh of Elsevier for her thoughtful suggestions, attention to detail, and patience with deadlines.
        We have watched our own families grow, and in some cases begin families of their own, during the span of these editions. To Helene, Allison, Mitchell, Jessica, and Gregory Polin and to Nina, Erin, Cara, and Grace Ditmar, thank you for providing a lifetime of support and for continuing to leave the light on for us.
        Since the publication of our last edition, Dr. Jean Cortner has passed away. Dr. Cortner was physician-in-chief at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia from 1974 until 1986.
        He was a mentor, colleague, and friend, as well as a consummate physician with intellectual verve, genuine compassion, and remarkable insight. He is very much missed. We dedicate this 5th edition of Pediatric Secrets to his memory.

The Johns Hopkins Manual Of Gynecology And Obstetrics(PDF Version)

    SOURCE :
        The Johns Hopkins Manual Of Gynecology And Obstetrics - 2nd Edition

    AUTHORS :
        Brandon J., Md. Bankowski (Editor),
        Amy E., MD Hearne (Editor),
        Nicholas C., MD Lambrou (Editor),
        Harold E., MD Fox (Editor),
        Edward E., MD Wallach (Editor)

    SUMMARY :
        In the century since the founding of its medical school and hospital, Johns Hopkins has devoted itself to the pursuit of excellence in patient care and to the promotion of medical education. During this century, textbooks and journals, authored and edited by leaders in virtually all areas of specialization, have originated from Johns Hopkins. In Obstetrics and Gynecology alone, many of the texts from Johns Hopkins have become classics and stood the test of time, including Williams' Obstetrics, now in its twentieth edition; TeLinde's Operative Gynecology; Novak's Textbook of Gynecology; and Kurman's editorship of Blaustein's Pathology of the Female Genital Tract. It has been a given that graduate and postgraduate education go together hand-in-hand with patient care since the doors of Johns Hopkins Hospital were opened in 1889 and its four horsemen— Welch, Osler, Halsted, and Kelly—set the pace for modern medicine. The Johns Hopkins Manual of Gynecology and Obstetrics represents a slight variation on this theme. It does not represent the work of a single individual or even a group of leaders in our specialty. Instead, it represents the collaboration of the entire house staff of The Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, 34 strong, working in conjunction with Johns Hopkins faculty members to provide a contemporary guide to diagnosis and management of clinical problems in obstetrics and gynecology. The planning and construction of this text stems from the curiosity, enthusiasm, and focus of a dedicated resident staff that began with the residents who contributed to the first edition and extends to our current staff of residents. Initially undertaken in 1996, the first volume has been widely circulated not only in the United States, but it has also been distributed in 50 other countries. The Johns Hopkins Manual of Gynecology and Obstetrics has even been translated into Portuguese and is currently distributed in Brazil. Now this manual is in its second edition, having proved itself a mainstay for students, house officers, and practitioners. The second edition is updated, expanded, and embellished and includes new chapters on primary care, critical care, obstetric anesthesia, postpartum care, and breast feeding. In addition, the new edition includes sections on frequently used drugs in obstetrics and gynecology, useful Web sites, and OB/GYN Spanish for residents and students. Clearly, the second edition is both new and improved. The revisions and expansion serve as a testimony to the dedication of house officers whose timeless activities in the clinics, operating suites, and hospital floors have been supplemented by their preparation of this text, which serves as a valued contribution to medical education and the care of patients.
        This manual has a unique legacy in that it has been passed down from the house officers, circa 1998, in the Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics at the Johns Hopkins Hospital and the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, to those of the present day. A. Nicholas Morse was instrumental in bringing to completion the first edition of this manual. His commitment to the creation of the manual was remarkable, exceeded only by his painstaking effort to bring the project to fruition. For the outstanding work performed by Dr. Morse, and indeed the hard work of all those who contributed to the first edition, the editors and contributors to this manual are deeply indebted and grateful.

Mandell Douglas And Bennett's - Principles And Practice Of Infectious Diseases (PDF Version)

    SOURCE :
        Mandell Douglas And Bennett's - Principles And Practice Of Infectious Diseases - 7th Edition

    AUTHORS :
        Gerald L. Mandell, MD
        John E. Bennett, MD
        Raphael Dolin, MD

    SUMMARY :
        It is interesting to compare the first edition with the new, seventh edition of Principles and Practice of Infectious Diseases. Since 1979, when the first edition was published, there have been scores of new antimicrobial agents and newly recognized diseases and pathogens, such as legionnaires’ disease, Lyme disease, Kaposi’s sarcoma, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), multidrug-resistant tuberculosis, Clostridium difficile colitis, progressive multifocal leuko-encephalopathy, severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), and the new H1N1 flu, to mention just a few.
        A comparison with the sixth edition, published in 2004, reveals a further increase in our knowledge of newly recognized diseases, microbes, and therapeutic agents. The developments in basic sciences have been astounding, with advances in genomics leading to rapid diagnoses and breakthrough therapies.
        Principles and Practice of Infectious Diseases differs from other sources of information, such as many web-based resources, in that it is carefully edited and the content put into perspective by infectious diseases experts. The new edition combines the knowledge and experience of the world’s authorities with the careful review of all chapters by all three editors.
        This edition has been planned and designed for physicians (infectious diseases specialists, internists, family practitioners, travel medicine specialists, HIV/AIDS researchers), pharmacologists, public health experts, microbiologists, and basic scientists. Readers consulting the volumes can quickly find key clinical information to help in diagnosing and treating their patients. The text contains up-to-date information and includes numerous 2009 references. New chapters have been added, and all other chapters have been revised extensively, with tables, figures, and references updated.
