Abstract: |
In this book key features of the nosology of all systems are briefly described. The first part of the book consists in the introductory part where key features of the nosology of each human system (i.e. respiratory, digestive, musculoskeletal, urinary, circulatory, endocrine glands, hematopoietic, neurological, and introduction to infections) are presented. Each chapter is divided into 4 sub-chapters: a) introduction to the diseases of this system and brief introduction to the pathophysiology; b) modes of presentation of each disease that the clinician should assess in his/her patient; c) most common abnormalities found in the physical examination of the patient; d) basic laboratory and imaging abnormalities that describe each nosology. In the second part of the book, important and common diseases of each system are described into more detail. Each chapter is again divided into introduction, epidemiology, pathophysiology, clinical presentation, alterations in blood tests. Finally, clinical cases are presented (mode of presentation, laboratory tests) and the diagnoses are given. At the end of each chapter some further questions regarding these clinical cases are given to stimulate the critical thought of the reader and further reading. In part 3, exercises for differential diagnosis for common diseases of each system are presented.
