The Systems of the Body series has established itself as a highly valuable resource for medical and other health science students following today’s systems-based courses. Now thoroughly revised and updated in this third edition, each volume presents the core knowledge of basic science and clinical conditions that medical students need, providing a concise, fully integrated view of each major body system that can be hard to find in more traditionally arranged textbooks or other resources. Multiple case studies help relate key principles to current practice, with links to clinical skills, clinical investigation and therapeutics made clear throughout.Each (print) volume also now comes with access to the complete, enhanced eBook version, offering easy anytime, anywhere access - as well as self-assessment material to check your understanding and aid exam preparation.The Renal System provides highly accessible coverage of the core basic science principles in the context of clinical case histories, giving the reader a fully integrated understanding of the system and its major diseases.Introductio... to the Renal SystemBody Fluids, Nephron Function and DiureticsWater Balance and Regulation of OsmolalityAcid–Base Balance and Regulation of pHGlomerular Filtration and Acute Kidney InjuryProteinuria and the Nephrotic SyndromeGlomerulonep... and the Acute Nephritic SyndromeDiabetic Nephropathy and Chronic Kidney DiseaseKidney Failure and Replacement of Renal FunctionHypertension and the KidneyPregnancy and the KidneyUrinary Tract Obstruction and StonesRenal Masses, Cysts and Urinary Tract TumoursDrugs and the KidneySystems of the Body Series:The Renal SystemThe Musculoskeletal SystemThe Nervous SystemThe Digestive SystemThe Endocrine SystemThe Respiratory SystemThe Cardiovascular System
