Overview: In diesem Buch werden die Veränderungen der Blutgerinnung und Fibrinolyse bei Patienten mit akutem Nierenversagen, mit chronisch-terminaler Niereninsuffizienz unter verschiedenen Dialyseverfahren und nach Nierentransplantation dargestellt. Außerdem wird der Einfluß einer Therapie in bezug auf die Nierenfunktion und auf die Blutgerinnung bei experimentellem akutem Nierenversagen und bei Patienten nach Nierentransplantationen untersucht. Die akuten und chronischen Auswirkungen dieser Gerinnungsveränderungen werden ausführlich diskutiert und mögliche Konsequenzen für die Therapie in der

Overview: Useful for researchers working in the field of stroke research, and any student interested in the physiological, pathophysiological, and pharmacological features of stroke damage.Analyzes the roles pl.Ischemic brain damage represents a major source of morbidity and mortality in westernized society and poses a significant financial burden on the health care system. To date, few effective therapies have been realized. Recent evidence, however, suggests that channels, pumps, and ionic exchangers are involved in CNS ischemia and ischemic stroke, but the potential contribution of these ch

Overview: Contains a large number of interviews and questionnaires with policymakers and civil society activists as members of policy networks.Develops and applies a new theoretical framework that is based on t.This book discusses the diversity and resilience in a hybrid regime where civil society organisations are either provided with complex sets of opportunities or face severe constraints. By studying the case of Iran between 1997 and 2013, it shows how the Islamic Republic regime went into two opposite directions under two presidencies and played in-between supporting and suppressing advoc

Overview: Umfassender Überblick über soziopolitische und teilsystemische Rahmenbedingungen rohstoffbezogener Planung.Ausführliche Diskussion von Chancen und Risiken aktueller Rahmenbedingungen für Rohstoffsiche.Obwohl mineralische Rohstoffe wie beispielsweise Kies, Sand, Quarz und Naturstein auf vielfältige Weise Grundlagen menschlicher Existenz ermöglichen und garantieren, haben Vorhaben zur Gewinnung mineralischer Rohstoffe vielerorts mit unterschiedlichen Akzeptanzproblemen zu kämpfen. Der planerische Umgang mit Rohstoffsicherung und Rohstoffgewinnung wurde wissenschaftlich bislang hauptsäc

Overview: Presents the definitive reference in the field.Provides an extensive update of the first edition with many completely new chapters on both interval-based and beat-based timing.This provides the curren.The study of how the brain processes time is becoming one of the most important topics in systems, cellular, computational, and cognitive neuroscience, as well as in the physiologic bases of music and language. During the last and current decade, interval timing has been intensively studied in humans and animals using increasingly sophisticated approaches. This new edition of the .Neuro

Overview: These notes developed from a course on the numerical solution of conservation laws first taught at the University of Washington in the fall of 1988 and then at ETH during the following spring. The overall emphasis is on studying the mathematical tools that are essential in de­ veloping, analyzing, and successfully using numerical methods for nonlinear systems of conservation laws, particularly for problems involving shock waves. A reasonable un­ derstanding of the mathematical structure of these equations and their solutions is first required, and Part I of these notes deals with thi

Overview: Provides a review of recent results in the field of Celestial Mechanics, with special emphasis on theoretical aspects.Detailed explanations of results both concerning the theory and the effective impl.This volume contains the detailed text of the major lectures delivered during the I-CELMECH Training School 2020 held in Milan (Italy). The school aimed to present a contemporary review of recent results in the field of celestial mechanics, with special emphasis on theoretical aspects. The stability of the Solar System, the rotations of celestial bodies and orbit determination, as well

Overview: This book is devoted to mathematical modeling of tokamak plasma. Since the appearance in 1982 of the first edition (in Russian), a considerable amount of experimental and theoretical material on tokamak research has been accumu­ lated. The new-generation devices, viz. , TFTR, JET and JT-60 were put into operation. The first experiments on these units have confirmed the correctness of the basic physical concepts underlying their construction. Experiments on plasma heating with the help of neutral beams and high-frequency (HF) waves on previous generation devices made it possible to ob

Overview: Cutting-edge information on the interactions between self-injury and disordered eating.Detailed coverage of empirically informed treatments for the co-occurrence of these behaviors.Informative coverag.Non-suicidal self-injury and eating disorders represent significant problems among today’s youth and pose unique challenges for clinicians, particularly when they co-occur. This book is a rare resource in that it provides cutting-edge information on the interactions between self-injury and disordered eating, empirically informed treatments for the co-occurrence of these behaviors, and s

Overview: Provides insight into negotiation processes for health-decision makers.Covers global health diplomacy with a focus on health-policy makers in developing countries.Offers tools, case studies and practiIn a new era of global health diplomacy, the most important tool for decision-making is negotiation. Globalization is binding countries, issues and people together as never before. In the domain of public health, traditional international concerns like the spread of infectious diseases have been joined by new concerns and challenges in managing the health impacts of trade and intellectua

Overview: The authors are well known internationally on these issues and the book could fill an existing gap.The existing books on sleep disturbances do not cover the neuroendocrine background and the chronobio.As the title suggests, and unlike other existing books on sleep medicine, Neuroendocrine Correlates of Sleep/Wakefulness will be devoted primarily to endocrine regulation of the behavioral state control. It will address a wide spectrum of sleep./wakefulness phenomena (both animals and humans), including pathogenesis, diagnosis, and management... ..From molecular biology to applied clini

Overview: An examination of the nature of middle power diplomacy in the post-Cold War era. As the rigid hierarchy of the bipolar era wanes, the potential ability of middle powers to open segmented niches opens up. This volume indicates the form and scope of this niche-building diplomatic activity from a bottom up perspective to provide an alternative to the dominant apex-dominated image in international relations.978-1-349-25904-5978-1-349-25902-1

Overview: Explains shifting patterns of policy and policy making by focusing on actors’ own interpretations of beliefs and practices.Explores diverse ways in which situated agents change policies by remaking prNarratives or storytelling are a feature of the everyday life of all who work in government. They tell each other stories about the origins, aims and effects of policies to make sense of their world. These stories form the collective memory of a government department; a retelling of yesterday to make sense of today. This book examines policies through the eyes of the practitioners, both

Overview: There are few techniques that have influenced therapeutic strategies in modem cardiology to a similar extent as coronary arteriography. Bypass surgery as well as transluminal coronary angioplasty would not have been possible without coronary angiography serving as a ‘midwife‘ in their evolu­ tion. Despite the widespread and long-standing use in clinical practice, however, the interpretation of coronary angiograms has not changed very much since the early days. Most angiogr~s are still reviewed in a visual and semi-quantitative and thus often very subjective way. In the face of an alm
