Pages : 60
Book Description
The RPA-NIDDK Conference focused on group differences in kidney disease. These differences, often demographic and unchangeable, drastically affect outcomes. For example, African Americans have a very high incidence of end-stage renal disease but survive longest once on dialysis. This generalization also seems to hold for Mexican Americans. The implications of these observations are profound as they place a burden on these ethnic societies and on health delivery systems. Furthermore, these groups, as well as native Americans, have lower transplantation rates-an observation with major economic and clinical implications. To compound this further, African Americans are at increased risk for graft loss due to multiple immunologic and non-immunologic factors. Nephrologists, internists, health care policymakers and epidemiologists should read this publication because it describes significant medical and economic implications of group differences.

ISBN:
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
The present volume is a reprint of a series of the lectures, first published in a special section of `Nephron'. It covers such diverse aspects of clinical nephrology as the cardiovascular system, transplantation, immunosuppression and dialysis, providing a most interesting overview of recent highlights in the field.

Nuclear Magnetic Shieldings and Molecular Structure
Author: J. A. Tossell
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9401116520
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 586
Book Description
Modern approaches to the theoretical computation and experimental determination of NMR shielding tensors are described in twenty-nine papers based on lectures presented at the NATO ARW. All of the most popular computational methods are reviewed and recent progress is described in their application to chemical, biochemical, geochemical and materials science problems. Experimental studies on NMR shieldings in gases, liquids and solids are also included, with special emphasis placed upon the relationship between NMR shielding and geometric structure and upon tests of the accuracy of the various computational methods. Qualitative MO schemes and semiempirical approaches are also considered in light of the computational results. This is a valuable book for anyone interested in how the NMR shielding tensor can be used to determine the geometric and electronic structures of molecules and solids. (abstract) Modern methods for computing and measuring nuclear magnetic resonance shielding tensors are described in papers by a great number of leaders in the field. The most popular methods for quantum mechanically calculating NMR shielding tensors are reviewed and many applications of these methods are described to problems in chemistry, biochemistry, geochemistry and materials science. The focus of the papers is on the relationship of the NMR shielding tensor to the geometric and electronic structure of molecules or solids.
