The field of gender-specific medicine examines how normal human biology and physiology differ between men and women and how the diagnosis and treatment of disease differs as a function of gender. This revealing research covers various conditions that predominantly occur in men as well conditions that predominantly occur in women. Among the areas of greatest difference are cardiovascular disease, mood disorders, the immune system, lung cancer as a consequence of smoking, osteoporosis, diabetes, obesity, and infectious diseases.The Second Edition of Principles of Gender-Specific Medicine focuses on the essentials of gender-specific medicine and the current study of sex and gender differences in human physiology and pathophysiology. New section editors, new chapter authors, and new chapters have been added to reflect the most up-to-date clinical research and practice. Offers insight into how the gender-specific risks of one organ system's disease affects the health of other organ systems Outlines the sex-specific differences of normal anatomy and physiology Illustrates the gender-specific features and quantifies "gender" and "sex" as risk factors across all major diseases Qualifies and analyzes the results of new drug therapies designed with gender-specific differences in mind: ex, hormone therapy in men and women for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular disease All chapters progress translationally from the basic science to the clinical applications of gender-specific therapies, drugs, or treatments Sections on drug metabolism, aging, and meta-analysis of data incorporated into all disease-specific chapters Academic Press Endocrinology & Metabolism pharmaceutical preparation;Spontaneous abortion;Pregnancy;Puberty;Sexual Development;Child of;Pulmonary Diseases;Pediatric Disorders;Asthma;Pediatric Hematology and Oncology;Chemotherapy;Radiation Therapy;Gilles de la Tourette Syndrome;Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder;Female child (person);Sports;Pastes;Participation in Certain Sports;brain function;sex;Sex Dimorphism;Brain;Sex Differentiation;Sexual intercourse finding;Sexual Orientation;Androgens;Sex Behavior;Neurology;Cerebrovascular accident;Epilepsy;aspirin;Myocardial infarction;Atherosclerosis;Psychiatry;Anxiety;Depressive Disorder;Hormone Replacement Therapy;Cognitive functions;Ability to perform cognitive activity (observable entity);Physiology;Coronary Arteriosclerosis;Hypertension;At risk of coronary heart disease;Coronary heart disease risk;Obesity;Dyslipidemias;Diabetes mellitus;Metabolic syndrome;State of Physical or Mental stress;Sex Role;Cardiovascular Diseases;Cardiothoracic surgery;Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery;Operative Surgical Procedures;estrogens;Wheezing;Childhood asthma;Thromboembolism of vein;Deep Vein Thrombosis;Pulmonary embolism;Sleep;Gender and Health;Sleep Apnea, Obstructive;Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease;Spirometry;Smoking Cessation;Malignant neoplasm of the lung;Smoking;Small cell carcinoma of lung;Pulmonary Hypertension;Dyspnea;Scleroderma;Autoimmune Disease;Lung;xerodermosteosis;Women's Diseases;Lymphangioleiomyomatosis;Metastasizing leiomyoma;Systemic infection;Functional disorder;Sepsis Syndrome;Inflammatory Bowel Diseases;Ulcerative Colitis;Crohn's disease;Defecation;Constipation;Fecal Incontinence;Gastroparesis;Idiopathic disease;History and physical examination;Disorder of liver;Liver Cirrhosis;Hepatitis;Irritable Bowel Syndrome;Diarrhea;Abdominal Bloating;Contraception;contraceptives;Intrauterine Device;Infertility;Male Infertility;Semen analysis procedure;Fertilization in Vitro;infertility fertilization in vitro;Endometriosis;Women's Sexual Health;Sexual Dysfunction;Orgasm;Erectile Dysfunction;Peripheral Vascular Disease;Induratio penis plastica;Pelvic Pain;Urogenital Diseases;Vulvodynia;Urge Incontinence;Urinary Incontinence;Urinary Tract Infection;Aging;Urogenital System;Urinary Stress Incontinence;Menopause;Osteoporosis;estradiol;Malignant neoplasm of male breast;Malignant neoplasm of female breast;Malignant neoplasm of the breast;Germ Cells;Neoplasm of the Germ cells;Reproductive System Neoplasm;Malignant Neoplasm;Hereditary Neoplastic Syndromes;Tests (qualifier value);Emerging Communicable Diseases;Infection;Pyrexia;Sexually Transmitted Diseases;Gonorrhea;Chlamydia Infections;Pregnancy Complications, Infectious;Pneumonia;Pediatrics;Adult Immunization;Vaccine;human papillomavirus vaccine;Immunity;Lupus Erythematosus;Autoimmunity;hormone;cytokine;Sex hormones;Prolactin;Systemic Lupus Erythematosus;Fatigue;estrone;dehydroepiandrosterone;Arthralgia;Rheumatism;Rheumatoid Arthritis;Internist;Oral contraceptive preparation;Erythrocyte sedimentation rate, manual;progestins;Organ Transplantation;Organ Specificity;Chronic Renal Failure;Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Risk Factors;Diabetes mellitus type 2;Insulin resistance;Thyroid disorder;Disorder of pregnancy;Hyperthyroidism;Sexual function;Heart disease;Spinal Cord Injuries;Osteoporosis in Men;Fractures;alendronate;Testosterone Replacement Therapy;testosterone;Hypogonadism;Second edition (qualifier value);System, Multi-Hospital;Copyright;United States of America;United Kingdom;Biology;Biological Agents;Nausea;antibiotic;Internal Medicine;Social Welfare;Gestational Diabetes;Pediatrician;Cystic Fibrosis;Bone Marrow Transplantation;Hyperactive behavior;Athlete;Post Traumatic Stress Disorder;Aggression;Loss of Consciousness;Seizures;Atrial Fibrillation;Mental Health;Cognitive Therapy;Cardiology;Hypercholesterolemia;Cardiovascular Physiology;Angina pectoris;Extrinsic asthma;Venous Thrombosis;Sleep Apnea Syndrome;Pulmonary Emphysema;Non-small Cell Lung Cancer; 9780123742711 DE,GB,ES,IT,FR English Medicine, Elsevier Science<
