Gastrointestinal Physiology (9th Ed.) Mosby Physiology Series Mosby's Physiology Monograph Series

Langue : Anglais

Auteur :

Couverture de l’ouvrage Gastrointestinal Physiology

Gain a foundational understanding of gastrointestinal physiology and how the GI system functions in health and disease. Gastrointestinal Physiology, a volume in the Mosby Physiology Series, explains the fundamentals of this complex subject in a clear and concise manner, while helping you bridge the gap between normal function and disease with pathophysiology content throughout the book.

  • Helps you easily master the material in a systems-based curriculum with learning objectives, Clinical Concept boxes, highlighted key words and concepts, chapter summaries, self-study questions, and a comprehensive exam.
  • Keeps you current with recent advances in gastrointestinal physiology with coverage of the physiological significance of gastrointestinal peptides; the regulation of mucosal growth and cancer; details surrounding acid secretion and peptic ulcers; and more.
  • Includes clear, 2-color diagrams that simplify complex concepts.
  • Featuresclinical commentaries that show you how to apply what you've learned to real-life clinical situations.
  • Covers the regulation of pancreatic secretion and gallbladder contraction; the transport processes for the absorption of nutrients; facts about fat absorption; and the regulation of food intake.
  • Enhanced eBook version included with purchase. Your enhanced eBook allows you to access all of the text, figures, and references from the book on a variety of devices.

Complete the Mosby Physiology Series! Systems-based and portable, these titles are ideal for integrated programs.
