This popular resource is still the only text to review all four major drug calculation methods: basic formula, ratio and proportion, fractional equation, and dimensional analysis. Practice problems help readers master each method so they can apply them effectively in practice. Completely updated throughout, this fourth edition provides the latest information on dosage calculations as well as the most current drug dosages.

Rizza, R. A.

This seventh volume provides overviews and updates on developments in the research and treatment of diabetes and its complications, dealing especially with those areas where much information has been published in the last 12-24 months. Several new authors have been recruited covering previously untapped areas, but still spanning the whole range from clinical diabetes to basic biochemistry.

The Diabetes Annual

Alberti, K. G. M. M.

Microalbuminuria, the abnormal urinary excretion of albumin, is recognized as an important independent marker of both renal and cardiovascular disease, particularly in diabetes mellitus. This volume is the only comprehensive and up-to-date review of the relevance of microalbuminuria to health and disease. It covers the pathophysiology and epidemiology of microalbuminuria and the methodology of laboratory assessment, and discusses the nonspecific nature of microalbuminuria in less well-recognized clinical situations. This is the first book to deal in detail with the treatment of microalbuminuria in both diabetic and nondiabetic subjects. This volume will be an essential source of reference and a guide to clinical practice for diabetologists, endocrinologists, cardiologists, renal physicians, and clinical biochemists.
