Ed. by Wolfram Domschke and Stanislaw J. Konturek

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

On the subject of stomach and gastric diseases, current clinical, morphological, pharmacological, biochemical as well as cellular and molecularbiological aspects will be presented.
The articles of the first part of this book will discuss the normal functions of the stomach (such as motility, secretion, tissue regeneration etc.). The second part deals with pathophysiological aspects (such as inflammation, ulceration and tumor formation) and modern possibilities of treatment.
The authors aim at gaining a deeper knowledge of the stomach, its physiology and pathophysiology in order to use this knowledge for the better of their patients.
