Book Description
En los últimos años nos hemos dejado deslumbrar por los avances técnicos y los nuevos recursos a nuestro alcance para realizar intervenciones quirúrgicas y actuaciones médicas cada vez más audaces, pero nunca hay que olvidar que una corta interrupción en el aporte de substratos energéticos y plásticos al organismo puede desencadenar importantes alteraciones enzimáticas, metabólicas y una restricción de la capacidad de homeostasis. La desnutrición ha estado asociada desde antiguo con la disminución de la resistencia a la enfermedad. Aunque la Nutrición Clínica sigue siendo una disciplina joven, ya ha desarrollado un importante cuerpo de doctrina tanto en los aspectos preventivos como curativos de la alimentación natural y artificial, y ha protagonizado una expansión sin precedentes en las últimas décadas. Hoy podemos considerar la Nutrición como una especialidad agente-específica, igual que la Genética o la Farmacología, y, como ellas, con interacciones órgano-específicas, sin olvidar su relación con la edad o determinadas situaciones fisiológicas específicas. Pero es ya un hecho incuestionable que avanzamos a pasos agigantados hacia la Nutrición de Precisión, que consiste en trabajar en la práctica clínica con un enfoque Órgano-Específico en lo que se refiere a la evaluación y tratamiento nutricional. El proyecto que el lector tiene en sus manos fue concebido con dicha filosofía.

The Brain-Dead Organ Donor
Author: Dimitri Novitzky
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1461443040
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 369
Book Description
Addressing all aspects of brain death and thoroughly detailing how a potential organ donor should be maintained to ensure maximum use of the organs and cells, The Brain-Dead Organ Donor: Pathophysiology and Management is a landmark addition to the literature. This first-of-its-kind, multidisciplinary volume will be of interest to a large section of the medical community. The first section of the book reviews the historical, medical, legal, and ethical aspects of brain death. That is followed by two chapters on the pathophysiology of brain death as investigated in small and large animal models. This includes a review of the many hormonal changes, including the neuroendocrine- adrenergic ‘storm’, that takes place during and following the induction of brain death, and how they impact metabolism. The next section of the book reviews various effects of brain death, namely its impact on thyroid function, the inflammatory response that develops, and those relating to innate immunity. The chapters relating to assessment and management of potential organ donors will be of interest to a very large group of transplant surgeons and physicians as well as critical care and neurocritical care physicians and nurses. Neurologists, endocrinologists, neurosurgeons, and pathologists will also be interested, especially in the more basic science sections on various aspects of brain-death and hormonal therapy. Organ procurement organizations and transplant coordinators worldwide will also be interested in this title. Other chapters will be of interest to medical historians, medico-legal experts, and ethicists.

VOLUNTARY GUIDELINES ON NATIONAL FOREST MONITORING
Author: Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations
Publisher: Food & Agriculture Org.
ISBN: 9251096198
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 76
Book Description
National information needs on forests have grown considerably in recent years, evolving from forest area and growing stock information to key aspects of sustainable forest management, such as the role of forests in the conservation of biodiversity and the provision of other ecosystem services. More recently, information on changes in carbon stocks, socio-economic aspects including the contribution to livelihoods and poverty reduction, governance and broader land use issues has become critical for national planning.

The North American Mosaic
Author: Commission for Environmental Cooperation (Montréal, Québec). Secretariat
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Agriculture
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
The North American Mosaic has four overarching features. First, it is, to the extent feasible, based on comparable information on the status and trends of major indicators of the state of the environment in Canada,Mexico, and the United States. Second, the report confirms that these three countries together make up an incredibly complex, dynamic, and interconnected ecosystem in which humans play a dominant and decisive role. Third, the report raises important and sometimes disquieting questions concerning the sustainability of some current trends. Finally, the report is a reminder that our economic, social, and physical well-being are utterly dependent on the life-sustaining services provided by nature. This report emphasizes the importance of developing mutually compatible economic, social, and environmental goals and policies across the three-country region.
