Viral hepatitis is a significant healthcare problem worldwide caused by hepatotropic viruses with different routes of transmission and varying courses of disease. Most of the hepatotropic viruses are acute and self-limiting, although hepatitis B, C, and rarely E have the potential to become chronic. Chronic hepatitis may be associated with severe complications such as cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. The vast majority of deaths are caused by Hepatitis B and C. Hepatitis E is an additional cause of mortality in developing countries like India, especially in pregnant women and in those with preexisting chronic liver disease. In the second volume of this short easy reckoner handy book on viral hepatitis for physicians, students, gastroenterologists and hepatologists, the discussion is presented in the most frequently asked clinical questions and the focus is primarily on clinical diagnosis and management of various forms of viral hepatitis. This book has been compiled by contributions from acclaimed hepatologists of the country, who have extensive knowledge, experience and understanding of the disease. The authors have tried to provide their practical suggestions on the controversial topics and define the unsettled questions for the readers.

Current Progress In Nephrology Volume 3
₹1,995.00In the third volume of Current Progress in Nephrology, recent advances in different areas of kidney disease have been authored by eminent clinicians. The first few chapters discuss the genetics of renal development, regenerative medicine in relation to kidney, molecular diagnostics. Newer diagnostic modalities like functional magnetic resonance imaging, point of care ultrasonography and electron microscopy of organised deposits in kidney diseases are discussed in the subsequent 3 chapters. Diagnosing and managing difficult conditions of chronic kidney disease like, hepatorenal syndrome, pregnancy related renal problems, and scleroderma crisis are discussed in appropriate chapters. Anaemia, usually associated with CKD, is a significant cause of left ventricular hypertrophy and cardiovascular disease.

Puzzling Cases in Pancreatic Diseases
₹675.00Pancreatology, as a discipline, has not been in focus for long has become a vanishing specialty for a variety of reasons. As a consequence, pancreatologists face several issues despite the ongoing their e orts in managing their practice and maintaining their identity in the fraternity. e changes in medical practice in many parts of the world have led to a shift of responsibilities, away from the surgeon and towards the gastroenterologist. e latter may not be equipped with su cient resources to acquire the knowledge. While the mainstream issues in pancreatology are taught at various levels and conferences, as well as guidelines, the remaining is mostly left to the experts, not to say connoisseurs. A selection of such experts from around the globe have contributed to this book with very special cases and exemplifying problems in the form of case reports for better application and understanding of the same in clinical practice. Medical journals in the hunt for their respective impact factors have stopped publishing case reports as these cannot be cited, therefore other channels become imperative to impart this knowledge to the medical community. Puzzling Cases in Pancreatic Diseases is a logical initiative in this direction. A good deal can be learned from these case reports that are professionally presented and discussed.
