Overview: Covers broad derangements of oxygen metabolism, such as oxidative stress and hypoxia.Covers the defensive mechanisms against oxidative stress (e.g. the Nrf2-Keap1 system) and hypoxia (e.g. the PHD-HIFConditions such as oxidative stress and hypoxia, which have a generalized impact on the oxygen metabolism, have been implicated in the genesis of kidney disease. This means that deepening our understanding of the pathobiology of oxygen metabolism in such diseases could be a fruitful path towards tangible clinical benefits. Studies in Renal Disorder collects reviews from leading researche

Overview: A comprehensive survey of the latest developments in seismic wave propagation and analysis and the first coherent introduction to the theory of scattering.Includes supplementary material: .Seismic waves - generated both by natural earthquakes and by man-made sources - have produced an enormous amount of information about the Earth‘s interior. In classical seismology, the Earth is modeled as a sequence of uniform horizontal layers (or spherical shells) having different elastic properties and one determines these properties from travel times and dispersion of seismic waves. The Earth,

Overview: Offers the first study in English of the works and legacy of Santorio Santori, known as the father of experimental medicine.Highlights the role played by medical practitioners such as Santorio in the .This book examines the life and works of Santorio Santori and his impact on the history of medicine and natural philosophy. Reputed as the father of experimental medicine and procedures, he is also known for his invention of numerous scientific instruments, including early precision medical devices (pulsimeters, hygrometers, thermometers, anemometers), as well as clinical and surgical t

Overview: The European Society of Intensive Care and the European Shock Society selected a group of expert scientists and clinicians in the field of septic shock to define the acquired knowledge, the present controversies and the priorities for future research. This conference was held in Brussels on March 1-2, 1987. The reports of the discussion have been collected in this "state of the art" update on septic shock.978-3-540-17861-3978-3-642-83108-9Series ISSN 0933-6788

Overview: The pursuit of sustainable development and smart growth is a main challengetoday in countries around the world. Social capital is an asset of theirterritorial communities. It is also a precondition for national and localpolicies that aim to better the economic base and quality of life for all. Thischange is socially diffused, economically sustainable over time, and smart inits content. A significant stock of social capital facilitates such resultsbecause it links into the process of development planning institutional decisionmakers and socioeconomic stakeholders who share trust, soli

Overview: Symbioses are vital processes in biology, involving several organisms (Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes).This volume brings new information on symbioses by experts and leading scholars in this field.This inSymbioses and Stress centers on the question of how organisms in tight symbiotic associations cope with various types of abiotic and biotic stress. In its original sense, symbioses cover all kinds of interactions among unrelated organisms, whereas in a narrower concept, the term is often referred to as mutualism. Evolutionary biology recognizes symbiosis as an integrative process, and mo
