Feldman and Pikes Vitamin D: Volume One: Biochemistry, Physiology and Diagnostics

Feldman and Pike's Vitamin D, Fifth Edition is the most comprehensive, authoritative reference available in the field. It presents a comprehensive review of the multifaceted vitamin D and provides investigators, clinicians, and students with a comprehensive, definitive, and up-to-date compendium of the diverse scientific and clinical aspects of vitamin D, where each area is covered by both basic and clinical experts in the field. Written by the most prominent and well-published names in the field, Volume 2: Health, Disease and Therapeutics authoritatively covers evidence of the relationship between vitamin D and diseases, particularly focusing on the results from trials that have been recently published. Chapters also discuss new roles for vitamin D, ranging from cardiovascular disease, to cancer, diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, acute illness and Covid-19. All chapters have been revised and updated and many new references added Presents new chapters to cover or expand into previously uncovered areas of research, including critical topics such as omics, epigenetics, evolution, FGF-23, and aging Offers a comprehensive approach, ranging from basic bone biology, to biochemistry, to the clinical diagnostic and management implications of vitamin D INDICE: Section I: History, Chemistry Metabolism, Circulation and Regulation 1.
