Volume 5 of Contemporary Nephrology summarizes major advances in 15
different areas of nephrology. As in previous volumes the different
chapters constitute up- of the discipline contributed by
individuals dates in both basic and clinical aspects with in-depth
expertise in their respective areas. We are grateful to the authors
for their outstanding contributions to this fifth volume. Drs.
Reuss and Cotton review in Chapter 1 new advances in our
understanding of water transport in epithelial tissues responsive
to antidiuretic hormone. In Chap- ters 2 and 3 Dr. Knox and Dr.
Schoolwerth and their associates summarize respec- tively new
information in the areas of renal hemodynamics and electrolyte
excre- tion, and renal metabolism. Chapter 4, written by Drs. Laski
and Kurtzman, updates recent developments in the regulation of
acid-base balance in health and disease. Chapter 5, contributed by
Drs. Sutton and Cameron, provides the reader with a detailed
account of progress in the area of mineral metabolism. In Chapter
6, Dr. Campese examines the contribution of sodium, calcium, and
neurogenic factors in the pathogenesis of essential hypertension.
The immunological aspects of renal disease are clearly discussed by
Dr. Couser in Chapter 7. New developments in this field are
emphasized and should provide the reader with a clear understanding
of the direction in which this field is moving. Drs. Humes and
Messana (Chapter 8) discuss selected areas in which new
developments have occurred in our understand- ing of acute renal
failure and toxic nephropathy.
