      An excess of growth hormone (GH) results in accelerated growth and in childhood, the clinical manifestation is gigantism. When GH excess has its onset after epiphyseal fusion at puberty, the overgrowth of soft tissue and bone results in acromegaly. This volume covers various topics related to growth hormone and its associated disorder when there is a GH excess, including their pathophysiology, clinical presentation and diagnosis. The volume includes a total of 8 chapters that provide a comprehensive overview of the synthesis, regulation, and various disorders related to growth hormone, including acromegaly and gigantism. The chapters have been written by experts in the field of pituitary tumors.

      The Story of GLP-1: A Historical Journey in the Treatment of Diabetes and Obesity offers a compelling narrative about the discovery and development of the hormone GLP-1, which has revolutionized modern approaches to diabetes and obesity. Award-winning scientist Professor Jens Juul Holst, alongside co-authors Professor Sten Madsbad, Professor Jens Meldgaard Bruun, and Novo Nordisk Foundation CEO Mads Krogsgaard Thomsen, trace the scientific breakthroughs and clinical advances that have made GLP-1 therapies, such as Ozempic and Wegovy, essential tools for improving blood sugar control and promoting meaningful, lasting weight loss in patients worldwide.The book explores the rising global prevalence of obesity and diabetes, emphasizing the urgent need for innovative solutions. It critically examines traditional treatments, noting their limitations in sustaining weight loss or reducing complications. The narrative details the paradigm shift brought by GLP-1 medications, including liraglutide and semaglutide, which offer improved cardiovascular outcomes and significant health benefits. The authors also address ongoing challenges of accessibility and affordability, prompting important societal discussions about equitable distribution and funding for these lifechanging therapies.
