Enfermedades tiroideas. Enfoque en el hipertiroidismo Thyroid Disorders - Focus on Hyperthyroidism Edited by Gonzalo Diaz Soto, ISBN 978-953-51-1384-3, 278 pages, Publisher: InTech, Chapters published May 21, 2014 under CC BY 3.0 license DOI: 10.5772/57001 Edited Volume The thyroid disorders are one of the most common and exciting areas of endocrinology. Hypothyroidism, multinodular goiter, hyperthyroidism and thyroid cancer are only few of the several implications that the thyroid disorders have in health. In fact, thyroid hormones regulate not only metabolism process, but also many other molecular and physiological systems. From this point of view, hyperthyroidism complications are a good example of the significance of thyroid hormone actions. This book aims to provide a general view of thyroid disorders, and a deeper explanation of hyperthyroidism and its complications and impact in health. Libro / Book Una nueva mirada al hipotiroidismo A New Look at Hypothyroidism Edited by Drahomira Springer, ISBN 978-953-51-0020-1, 266 pages, Publisher: InTech, Chapters published February 17, 2012 under CC BY 3.0 license DOI: 10.5772/1215 Edited Volume Hypothyroidism is the most common thyroid disorder. It can cause a variety of changes in women's menstrual periods, reduce their chances of becoming pregnant, as well as affect both the course of pregnancy and the neuropsychological development of babies. During pregnancy there is a substantially increased need for thyroid hormones and a substantial risk that a previously unnoticed, subclinical or latent hypothyroidism will turn into overt hypothyroidism. The thyroid inflammation caused by the patient's own immune system may form autoimmune thyroiditis (Hashimoto's thyroiditis). Congenital hypothyroidism (CH) occurs in approximately 1:2,000 to 1:4,000 newborns. Nearly all of the developed world countries currently practice newborn screening to detect and treat congenital hypothyroidism in the first weeks of life. "A New Look at Hypothyroidism" contains many important specifications and innovations for endocrine practice.

Cirugía  laparoscópica Laparoscopic Surgery Edited by Arshad M. Malik, ISBN 978-953-51-2964-6, Print ISBN 978-953-51-2963-9, 142 pages, Publisher: InTech, Chapters published February 22, 2017 under CC BY 3.0 license Laparoscopic surgery developed as the most element change ever in the history of surgery. The approach of this method is no more a late headway. The history goes back three decades now when appendectomy was initially performed laparoscopically in 1983. It was then polished by not very many specialists, and there was a moderate move of the method from traditional open surgery to laparoscopic surgery. Hesitance to take in an absolutely new method, absence of facilities, and appropriate training were main considerations ruining its direction. After an underlying hindered period came a sudden ascent in the worldwide preoccupation of the consideration toward this novel strategy. There was an aggregate move from open to laparoscopic surgery in a large portion of the focuses with an expanding rundown of operations being performed laparoscopically. This book is intended to bring forward the very many advancements in the field of laparoscopic surgery. There are many valuable contributions from eminent laparoscopic surgeons ranging from diagnostic to therapeutic procedures performed by this technique. I hope it will benefit the trainee surgeons as well as the experienced alike. Suggestions and positive criticism are more than welcome. Libro / Book HIV/SIDA. Retos contemporáneos HIV/AIDS - Contemporary Challenges Edited by Nancy Dumais, ISBN 978-953-51-2962-2, Print ISBN 978-953-51-2961-5, 172 pages, Publisher: InTech, Chapters published February 22, 2017 under CC BY 3.0 license With increasing efficacy of antiretroviral therapy, HIV/AIDS has shifted from a disease with high mortality to a chronic illness with substantial longevity. However, researchers, physicians and social workers still face many challenges, and it is important to raise awareness on several aspects that people living with HIV/AIDS have to deal in their daily lives. This book has assembled an array of chapters on the medical, social and economic aspects of HIV/AIDS. The chapters were written by experts from around the globe reflecting the importance of the topic. This book will be of great interest not only to graduate students but also to active academics and practitioners. Libro / Book Aneurisma aórtico Aortic Aneurysm Edited by Kaan Kirali, ISBN 978-953-51-2934-9, Print ISBN 978-953-51-2933-2, 202 pages, Publisher: InTech, Chapters published February 22, 2017 under CC BY 3.0 license Aortic aneurysms are very silent, insidious, and sudden complicated pathologies with high incidence of sudden death. The aorta has several different parts, which are affected by aneurysmal pathology independently and separately or conjointly. Preventive medicine and determinative genetic heritage are the first steps during diagnosis and precaution. Preventive screening of the general population seems the best way for diagnosing early asymptomatic aneurysms with increased health cost. Because sudden death is the first symptom of aortic aneurysms, early interventional treatment is essential to protect fatal complications. In spite of open surgical repair which is the standard procedure, isolated or hybrid endovascular approaches are used widespread in the last decade due to reduction of procedural complications. This book is composed of the main topics on aortic aneurysms and surgical treatments to extend scientific and therapeutic perspective and vision of cardiac teams.
