| renal physiology made ridiculously simple: Renal Physiology John Danziger, Mark Zeidel, Michael J. Parker, 2011-11-03 The complexity and copious number of details that must be mastered in order to fully understand renal physiology makes this one of the most daunting and intimidating topics covered in the first year of medical school. Although this is often only a 2-4 week module during the general physiology course, it is essential that students understand the foundations of renal physiology, and general physiology texts are often not detailed enough to provide students with what they need to master this difficult subject. This first edition, and third volume in the Integrated Physiology Series, offers students a clear, clinically oriented overview of renal physiology. The lecture-style format, conversational tone, and final Integration chapter offset the difficult and intimidating nature of the subject. Chapter outlines, learning objectives, and end-of-chapter summaries highlight key concepts for easier assimilation. Other pedagogical features include clinical cases, Thought Questions, Putting It Together sections, Editor's Integration boxes, review Q&A, and online animations -- all designed specifically to reinforce clinical relevance and to challenge the student in real-world problem-solving. |

| renal physiology made ridiculously simple: Principles of Renal Physiology Christopher J. Lote, 2012-12-06 The first edition of this book appeared in 1982. In the preface to that first edi tion, I wrote 'This book is based on the lecture course in renal physiology which I give to medical students at the University of Birmingham. The pur pose of the book is primarily to set out the principles of renal physiology for preclinical medical students, and it is therefore concerned mainly with normal renal function. However, diseases or abnormalities in other body systems may lead to adaptations or modifications of renal function, so that a good knowl edge of renal physiology is essential to the understanding of many disease states, for example the oedema of heart failure or liver disease, or the conse quences of haemorrhage and shock. ' The new edition is still based on the lec tures which I continue to give at Birmingham University, but over the years the course has gradually changed, to being a system based course covering all aspects of the kidney - the anatomy, physiology, pharmacology and pathology. The new edition of the book, which has been extensively revised and rewritten, reflects this. However, it continues to offer a concise, easily readable format, primarily intended for undergraduate medical and medical science students. |

| renal physiology made ridiculously simple: Physiology by Numbers Richard F. Burton, 2000-04-20 Thinking quantitatively about physiology is something many students find difficult. However, it is fundamentally important to a proper understanding of many of the concepts involved. In this enlarged second edition of his popular textbook, Richard Burton gives the reader the opportunity to develop a feel for values such as ion concentrations, lung and fluid volumes, blood pressures etc. through the use of calculations which require little more than simple arithmetic for their solution. Much guidance is given on how to avoid errors and the usefulness of approximation and 'back-of-envelope sums'. Energy metabolism, nerve and muscle, blood and the cardiovascular system, respiration, renal function, body fluids and acid-base balance are all covered, making this book essential reading for students (and teachers) of physiology everywhere, both those who shy away from numbers and those who revel in them. |
| renal physiology made ridiculously simple: Essential Physiology D.F. Horrobin, 1973-04-30 Physiology is the study of the normal working of the body. It is essential that its principles should be understood by nurses and doctors, for only if you know how the body works normally can you understand what is happening during disease. This first chapter covers the whole of physiology in outline, so that as later you read the chapters devoted to giving details of the various systems, you will be able to see where each system fits into the scheme of things. THE CELL You can learn a great deal about physiology by considering the requirements of a simple, single-celled organism such as the amoeba. These requirements may be summarized as follows: 1. Supplies. All living organisms require a supply of energy if they are to survive. Plants can obtain their energy directly from the sun and by using very simple inorganic materials they can manu facture all the substances they need. But animals must obtain their energy from the complex materials which they take in as food. The energy is released by the process known as oxidation (burning), in which food is broken down and combined with oxygen to release all the energy which is required. Animals therefore obviously need a supply of food and a supply of oxygen. Since the animal body is largely made up of water, they need a supply of water as well. The amoeba finds it easy to obtain all these materials from the water which surrounds it. |

| renal physiology made ridiculously simple: Nephrology in 30 Days Robert F. Reilly (M.D.), Mark Perazella, 2005-02-11 A concise review of the core principles and clinical entities associated with nephrology at the point of care. 4 STAR DOODY'S REVIEW This is an absolutely wonderful book and excellent for medical students, physician assistants, and trainees in all the medical disciplines. It differs from other handbooks or concise manuals by providing more detailed coverage of the fundamental pathophysiology and basic science behind each disorder, which facilitates understanding. The leading questions, highlighting key points in a colorful manner, the numerous figures and algorithms, and the easy-to-read style make this book rather unique. Although the width of the pages is wider than the usual handbooks and does not make this book a true pocket book, the larger font and the addition of all the tables and figures make it much easier to read. I highly recommend this book to students and trainees rotating on the nephrology service.--Doody's Review Service Covers all major acute and chronic kidney diseases, from acid/base disturbances to stones to end stage renal disease. Features a concise, manageable format with recommended timeframes for mastering the content, case studies, and summary tables. Perfect for trainees and practicing non-specialists. |

| renal physiology made ridiculously simple: USMLE Step 1 Made Ridiculously Simple Andreas Carl, M.D, Ph.D, 2023-05-15 A unique USMLE Board review book that is both your First Aid AND Last-Minute Study Buddy for the big test day! Medical students have a brief window of only a few months to rapidly review for the USMLE Step 1 Exam. However, there are two universal problems that students encounter when approaching this anxiety-filled time: 1. What should I study first? 2. How can I effectively cram 2 weeks before the USMLE when there's too much to know...It's overwhelming! Relax! We've got you covered with USMLE Step 1 Made Ridiculously Simple (MRS). This book takes ALL the most high yield basic science facts and boils them down into a self testing chart format; thereby giving that rapid, bird's eye view to give YOU the upperhand on where you stand before creating a gameplan for studying for the test AND is a highly effective, rapid tool used to cram everything you need to know right before taking the test. And to make things even easier to understand, we use brief clinical contexts to break down the basic science facts in the charts instead of using long and dull vignettes. Our student focused approach ensures that you will recieve a spiral bound format that lays down flat for easy note taking, highlighting, and self testing!
