Book, Physiology Review and Commented Questions 7/19[LS]

Indispensable for students of Medicine and other areas of health who wish to enhance their learning and performance in exams, Physiology | Review and Commented Questions brings together the fundamental topics of Physiology, presenting a concise view of its key principles, in addition to clinical correlations, which emphasize the connection between this discipline and clinical practice. Organized into 7 chapters, according to the systems of bodies, the book addresses topics of great relevance to the discipline. The first chapter, “Cellular Physiology”, reviews the general principles of cell physiology; the other six, the main organ systems: “Neurophysiology”; “Cardiovascular Physiology”; “Respiratory Physiology”; “Renal Physiology and Acidobase Balance”; “Gastrointestinal Physiology”; and “Endocrine Physiology”. The most complex concepts are explained gradually, concisely and clearly, enriched with illustrations and examples. In addition, numerous clinical correlations are made, so that the student understands the connection between Physiology and Medicine, and, whenever possible, an integrative approach demonstrates how organ systems interact to maintain homeostasis.Highlights:Addition of new figuresOrganization and updated contentExpanded coverage of cellular, respiratory, renal, gastrointestinal and endocrine physiologyMore than 350 resolved questionsAbout 180 figures and tables, to facilitate knowledge retention and reinforce the content studiedNew appendices: Important Subjects in Physiology, Important Equations in Physiology and Blood Values Normals
