The first atlas devoted to metabolic syndrome, this visual primer presents the pathophysiology, epidemiology, diagnosis, treatment, and clinical and radiologic features of this disorder. Describing recent practices in patient assessment, this source helps clinicians accurately identify and treat patients at increased risk for metabolic syndrome, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes.
Authored by leading researchers in the field of cardiometabolic risk, this guide features:
• step-by-step diagnostic and therapeutic protocols
• clinical photographs, radiographic images, schematic illustrations, algorithms, and tables
• the biochemical, physiologic, and molecular features of insulin resistance and associated morbidities
• the latest studies indicating increased cardiovascular risk in pre-diabetes
• non-pharmacologic therapies in the prevention of type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome
• concepts in primordial care to reduce disease occurrence
