Osteoporosi

"Rapid Reference to Osteoporosis Disease" will provide the reader with authoritative and accessible information from a clinical expert in the field, to assist with treatment decisions. Each title in the new "Rapid Reference Series" provides standard core content (epidemiology - management/ therapy) combined with the additional information, such as FAQs and patient organisations, needed by the GP to provide effective patient care. They also include drugs listings, clinical trials, information on future developments and web site listings to keep the reader up to speed with new developments and to extend their knowledge of the disease area. With patients becoming better informed about the nature and management of their conditions, "Rapid Reference" is a timely new series that offers GPs easy access to the best information for patient care and management.

"Clinical Trials in Osteoporosis" is a practical handbook on clinical trials in the growing field of osteoporosis. Topics covered include study design, technical issues, data collection, quality assurance, data analysis and presentation. It aims to take the user through the process step-by-step from start to finish, also providing a background on regulatory guidelines, ethical implications, endpoints, current therapies and the ideal drug to use. There are no other books at present that specifically address the issue of clinical trials in osteoporosis. A number of issues dealt with in this book have been brought together in one publication for the first time. "Clinical Trials in Osteoporosis" is intended to serve as a practical manual for clinicians and scientists coming to the subject new and to provide a standard for existing centers to measure themselves against.
