DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe secretions of the exocrine pancreas provide for digestion of a meal into components that are then available for processing and absorption by the intestinal epithelium. Without the exocrine pancreas, malabsorption and malnutrition result. This chapter describes the cellular participants responsible for the secretion of digestive enzymes and fluid that in combination provide a pancreatic secretion that accomplishes the digestive functions of the gland. Key cellular participants, the acinar cell and the duct cell, are responsible for digestive enzyme and fluid secretion, respectively, of the exocrine pancreas. This chapter describes the neurohumoral pathways that mediate the pancreatic response to a meal as well as details of the cellular mechanisms that are necessary for the organ responses, including protein synthesis and transport and ion transports, and the regulation of these responses by intracellular signaling systems. Examples of pancreatic diseases resulting from dysfunction in cellular mechanisms provide emphasis of the importance of the normal physiologic mechanisms.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIt's no secret that the typical American diet is generally detrimental to overall health. As the quality of one's health declines, so too does the effectiveness of the dody's digestive abilities. In this booklet, Rita Elkins, H.H., examines how digestive enzymes, the key to aiding proper digestion, are often not present in the digestive process. She also discussees how to use enzymes, safety issues, and how to best select enzyme supplements.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKNever before has a comprehensive history of the pancreas like History of the Pancreas been published. It not only is a historical review of the science of medicine, it is liberally interspersed with anecdotal vignettes of the researchers who have worked on this organ. Much of it, such as the discovery of the duct of Wirsüng, of the islets of Langerhans, of insulin, gastrin and their tumors, reads like the adverture, which it is. This book, divided into 14 chapters, is written in a narrative style and is easily readable, as glimpses of the investigators, those who failed as well as those who succeeded, adds both perspective and human interest. Each chapter is completely referenced, totaling over 1500 references. As a reference book for students, teachers, investigators, writers, its detailed hjistorical documentation is unique. From the pre-Christian era of Asia Minor, to Greece, Rome, Europe and America, to the explosive progress in Japan, the history is there. History of the Pancreas: Mysteries of a Hidden Organ fills a gap.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn this book, the authors provide current research in the study of the anatomy, diseases and health implications of the pancreas. The pancreas consists of two organs in one; the exocrine gland secretes enzymes into the digestive tract, and the endocrine gland secretes hormones into the bloodstream. Topics discussed in this compilation include the development of the islets of Langerhans in the human fetal pancreas; autophagy in pancreatic diseases; characteristics of primary cystic pancreatic neoplasms; embryology of the pancreas and associated anomalies; emerging therapeutic options for metastatic exocrine pancreatic cancer; minimally invasive pancreaticoduodenetcomy; and minimally invasive pancreatectomy.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis new, enlarged edition of the classic book contains over 400 references to scientific literature that contributed to the formulation of Dr. Howell's revolutionary Food Enzyme Concept. Minor corrections and modifications have been made for greater clarity, and a new glossary of scientific terms has been incorporated to facilitate understanding of the contents. Included in the book is an interview by Viktoras Kulvinskas with Dr. Edward Howell. An extensive new foreword by Viktoras Kulvinskas has been added to this revised and enlarged 3rd edition, as well as a new research appendix at the end. The Foreword adds a very substantial body of recent and updated research to support the food enzyme concept of Dr. Howell and underline the importance of food enzymes.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKClinical Pancreatology Since the book Clinical Pancreatology for Practising Gastroenterologists and Surgeons was first published sixteen years ago, the knowledge and clinical management of pancreatic diseases have developed markedly. Thanks to the development of the translational research and the from bench to bedside concept, much progress from the lab has been applied to clinical practice. In addition, several highly relevant clinical trials published over the last years have resulted in the update and optimisation of clinical guidelines. A new and validated classification of severity and complications of acute pancreatitis is firmly rooted in clinical practice and has been the basis for the development of minimally invasive approaches to pancreatic necrosis. The etiopathogenic knowledge of chronic pancreatitis and other pancreatopaties, like that associated with diabetes mellitus, has developed significantly. Especially important has been the development of the field of cystic pancreatic tumours, which has been reflected in the publication of several guidelines and consensus reports over the last few years. Most research efforts have focused on pancreatic cancer, which have led and will further lead to a significant increase in the therapeutic armamentarium against this devastating disease. Finally, many newly published studies have changed the concept, causes, clinical relevance, diagnosis and treatment of exocrine pancreatic insufficiency. This new edition of Clinical Pancreatology for Practising Gastroenterologists and Surgeons has enjoyed the collaboration of the world’s leading experts in each of the areas of clinical pancreatology with the aim of facilitating gastroenterologists, surgeons, oncologists, internists, nutritionists, diabetologists, paediatricians, radiologists, pathologists and other specialists in their decision making when facing patients with pancreatic diseases in their daily clinical practice. All in all, this book supplies an indispensable update of the relevant aspects of clinical pancreatology.
