300 full-colour cards on 14 human body systems, covering parts that
could not be covered on our first set of cards. To truly offer the
benefit of flash cards for memory retention, we included the
maximum number of body part labels per card that short-term memory
can retain and move to long-term memory. This second set adds a few
systems beautifully illustrated by award winning medical
illustrator Vincent Perez. With images and numbered labels naming
parts on one side and just the numbered parts on the other,
students can easily test themselves or their study partner. There
is nothing else that compares in quality, number of cards and
price. Suggested uses: Students -- establish your core memory of
human anatomy whether you will be a nurse, physical therapists, pre
med, or even a massage therapist.
The Theory of Endobiogeny Volume 2: Foundational Concepts for
Treatments of Common Clinical Conditions addresses the core
elements of the adaptation response to stressors: autonomic nervous
system (ANS), corticotropic axis, immunity and digestive tract
function. The volume is oriented for clinical practice, offering
clear discussions on treating the root cause of numerous common
disorders, and symptomatically addressing the destabilizing factor
in a vast number of disorders ranging from depression to irritable
bowel, and from migraines to insomnia called spasmophilia.
A successful Wall Street trader turned neuroscientist reveals how
risk taking and stress transform our body chemistry
Before he became a world-class scientist, John Coates ran a
derivatives trading desk in New York City. He used the expression
"the hour between dog and wolf" to refer to the moment of
Jekyll-and-Hyde transformation traders passed through when under
pressure. They became cocky and irrationally risk-seeking when on a
winning streak, tentative and risk-averse when cowering from
losses. In a series of groundbreaking experiments, Coates
identified a feedback loop between testosterone and success--one
that can cloud men's judgment in high-pressure decision-making.
Coates demonstrates how our bodies produce the fabled gut feelings
we so often rely on, how stress in the workplace can impair our
judgment and even damage our health, and how sports science can
help us toughen our bodies against the ravages of stress. Revealing
the biology behind bubbles and crashes, "The Hour Between Dog and
Wolf "sheds new and surprising light on issues that affect us all.
In Functional Anatomy of the Pelvis and the Sacroiliac Joint author
and respected bodywork specialist John Gibbons looks at one of the
most important areas of the body: the pelvis and the sacroiliac
joint. He takes readers on a fascinating journey of enlightenment,
teaching us to recognize pain and dysfunctional patterns that arise
from the pelvic girdle. Gibbons addresses key issues such as: * The
walking/gait cycle and its relationship to the pelvis * Leg length
discrepancy and its relationship to the kinetic chain and the
pelvis * The laws of spinal mechanics * The relationship of the hip
joint, gluteal muscles, lumbar spine to the pelvis * Sacroiliac
joint screening In addition, he provides step-by-step techniques to
identify and correct a number of impaired patterns as well as
functional exercises for the pelvis that promote recovery.

A solid knowledge of anatomy is essential within any number of
fields throughout healthcare. A core discipline of all medical
degrees, anatomy is generally taught in a series of laboratory
sessions and lectures, requiring students to identify a particular
organ or structure, explain its function and describe its relation
to normal physiology. Students are expected to learn - and
practicing clinicians required to remember - an enormous amount of
anatomical information. A Visual Guide to Clinical Anatomy is an
extraordinary visual reference guide, containing more than 900
high-quality illustrations of the human anatomy. Author and
illustrator Robert H. Whitaker draws upon his 30 years of
experience as an anatomy demonstrator and lecturer at Cambridge
University to present a simple, easy-to-understand approach to both
teaching and learning the subject. Each illustration is designed to
provide a summary of key anatomical and clinical information of a
specific topic or clinical condition. A comprehensive yet
user-friendly anatomy resource, this volume: Covers the major areas
of human anatomy Provides succinct, clinically relevant information
for each illustration Offers clear and accessible synopses of
anatomical structures A Visual Guide to Clinical Anatomy is a
valuable addition to the bookshelf of any medical student,
instructor, surgical trainee, physician, or healthcare
practitioner.
"Integrative Anatomy and Pathophysiology in Traditional Chinese
Medicine Cardiology" covers the structure, function, and pathology
of the cardiovascular system from the TCM and western medical
perspectives. It focuses specifically on western medicine anatomy
and pathophysiology, along with TCM aspects of essence, qi, blood
and body fluid concepts, production, and function to explain
cardiovascular system dysfunction, its independent role and
dependent interactions with the functions of other organ
systems.
This book is designed for US-based licensed TCM practitioners as
well as cardiology researchers.
Compares and contrasts the TCM basic theories and western medicine
basic sciencesGives a specific connection between the heart
dysfunction and the disease mechanisms of other organ systems using
TCM and western medicine terms and diagnosesPrepares the

pathophysiology in cardiology final online exam
Food and water are necessary for survival, but can only be obtained
via ingestive behavior (feeding, drinking, and moving). Survival
thus depends on the ability of the brain to coordinate the need for
water and energy with appropriate behaviors to modify their intake
as necessary for homeostasis. However, the balance of these
behaviors also inherently determines body weight, and imbalances
contribute to the development of weight disorders, such as obesity
and anorexia nervosa. The lateral hypothalamic area (LHA) of the
brain is anatomically positioned to coordinate the sensation of
osmotic and energy status with goal-directed ingestive behaviors
necessary to maintain homeostasis and body weight, and, hence, may
hold insight into the potential treatment for energy balance
disorders. This volume reviews the essential role of the LHA for
the control of body weight, from its historical description as a
""feeding center"" to the current view of this LHA as a cellularly
heterogeneous hub that regulates multiple aspects of physiology to
influence body weight. Furthermore, we evaluate how specific LHA
populations coordinate certain metabolic cues and behaviors, which
may guide the development of pathway-specific interventions to
improve the treatment of energy balance disorders.
This volume discusses current research on glial-neuronal
interactions in several neuroendocrine systems. Glial-neuronal
bidirectional transmission represents one of the fastest-growing
areas of investigation in neuroscience today. Unraveling the
interactions and signaling synergy between glial cells and neurons
is critical to advancing our understanding of brain function.
Consequently, this book summarizes the latest findings on the roles
of astrocytes, microglia and tanycytes in the control of synaptic
transmission, synaptic plasticity, blood-brain signaling,
neuroinflammation and immune signaling. In addition, leading
experts in the field discuss how reproductive function, the stress
response and energy homeostasis are regulated by glial-neuronal
communication. Given its scope, the book is essential reading for
undergraduate and graduate students in the neurosciences, as well
as postdoctoral fellows and established researchers who are looking
for a comprehensive overview of glial-neuronal crosstalk in
neuroendocrine systems. This is the eleventh volume in the
International Neuroendocrine Federation (INF) Masterclass in
Neuroendocrinology series (Volumes 1-7 published by Wiley), which
aims to illustrate the highest standards and highlight the latest
technologies in basic and clinical research, and aspires to provide
inspiration for further exploration into the exciting field of
neuroendocrinology.
