Insulin Resistance: Insulin Action and its Disturbances in Disease

John Wiley & Sons, 2005

Hormone resistance syndromes are typically thought of as rare, usually genetic, disorders with a severe but relatively stereotyped clinical and biochemical profile. While there are syndromes of severe insulin resistance that conform to this description, defective insulin action is of much more pervasive biomedical importance....

Iminosugars: From Synthesis to Therapeutic Applications

John Wiley & Sons, 2007

The field of iminosugars is a very exciting area of research. These carbohydrate mimetics were first imagined and synthesized by chemists in the 1960s before being isolated from Nature a few years later. Since the discovery of their biological activity as potent glycosidase inhibitors in the 1970s, iminosugars have been the subject...

Analgesia, Anaesthesia and Pregnancy: A Practical Guide

Cambridge University Press, 2007

There are now many large and authoritative texts on obstetric anaesthesia and analgesia available to the anaesthetic trainee. With reduced time available for obstetric anaesthetic training, we feel there is a need for a shorter, more practically based text, suitable for both the trainee starting in the maternity suite and the...
