La SIGENP (Società Italiana Gastroenterologia Epatologia e Nutrizione Pediatrica), fondata nel 1992, è una società scientifica affiliata alla Società Italiana di Pediatria. Tra gli obiettivi che la SIGENP persegue, ricordiamo in particolare: la promozione di studi di fisiopatologia dell'intestino, del fegato, del pancreas e di nutrizione clinica in età pediatrica; l'educazione scientifica dei giovani ricercatori; attraverso l'aggiornamento dei pediatri in gastroenterologia; le attività di ricerca e lo sviluppo di relazioni scientifiche con le altre società italiane e internazionali. In quest'ottica, la SIGENP si è impegnata a pubblicare il "Manuale SIGENP di gastroenterologia ed epatologia pediatrica", testo che vuole essere di riferimento per i medici intenzionati ad approfondire la disciplina, per il pediatra di famiglia e per il pediatra in formazione. Il progetto editoriale, che scaturisce dalla collaborazione con il Pensiero Scientifico Editore, vede la collaborazione delle maggiori Scuole Italiane di GastroEpatologia Pediatrica. Gli Associate Editors dell'iniziativa sono l'attuale Presidente SIGENP Carlo Catassi, curatore dell'intera opera, ed alcuni tra i più recenti past-Presidents: Salvatore Cucchiara, Giuseppe Maggiore e Annamaria Staiano.

Elimination disorders (nocturnal enuresis, urinary incontinence and encopresis) are among the most common disorders of childhood. Some disorders are primarily genetically determined, in others environmental factors predominate. Also, the rate of comorbid behavioural disturbances differs greatly from one syndrome to another. Because of this variety and heterogeneity, each disorder requires specific approaches in assessment and treatment. This book provides an evidence-based overview of functional elimination disorders. It draws on the standardisation and terminology suggested by the International Children's Continence Society. Short case vignettes, photos and line drawings, as well as questionnaires and charts are provided. To enable a quick orientation for clinical purposes, each chapter is followed by summaries, guidelines and diagrams. It will be of interest to all professionals working in the field.

This book provides a concise review of various topics in pediatric gastroenterology, hepatology, and nutrition for the purposes of board examination preparation. Each chapter has a practice question and answer section, which reviews key concepts.
