Key Features :
300 case studies.
Based on new CBME curriculum allowing horizontal, spiral, vertical and nested integration.
Full coverage of all chapters of biochemistry with complete clinical correlations.
Illustrations of clinical cases in sections, namely history, physical examination, laboratory work-up and questions related to the diagnosis of the case. This will help sharpen the clinical skills by simulating a clinical reaching at a diagnosis experience.
Each case study ends-up in a clinical note and a short summary in the form of important points, titled as Clinical Pearls. This will help the readers to quickly revise the contents.
Many alternative unsolved case studies (72) have been provided at the end of the book which would help the students to evaluate their problem-solving skills gained through the course of the book.
Detailed description of molecular and biochemical techniques, including electrophoresis, chromatography, western blotting, southern blotting, polymerase chain reaction, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), colorimetry, and newborn screening.
Case-based multiple-choice questions for self-assessment (with answers).
Quick revisions (summary charts): Acid-base imbalance, disorders of amino acid metabolism, disorders of carbohydrate metabolism, regulatory mechanisms of carbohydrate metabolism, disorders of lipid metabolism, regulatory mechanisms of lipid metabolism, electrolyte imbalance, clinical implications of vitamin deficiencies, and clinically important hemoglobinopathies.
Nine new case studies including-clinical role of ribonucleotide reductase, tumor markers, enzyme action and inhibition, functions and significance of zinc and selenium, and heavy metal toxicity.
Pictures (37 new pictures), tables and flowcharts for meaningful explanations of content details.
