Oxford American Handbook of Endocrinology and Diabetes Draznin_Prelims.indd i 4/2/2011 6:51:22 PM About the Oxford American Handbooks in Medicine The Oxford American Handbooks are pocket clinical books, providing practi- cal guidance in quick reference, note form. Titles cover major medical special- ties or cross-specialty topics and are aimed at students, residents, internists, family physicians, and practicing physicians within specifi c disciplines. Their reputation is built on including the best clinical information, com- plemented by hints, tips, and advice from the authors. Each one is carefully reviewed by senior subject experts, residents, and students to ensure that content refl ects the reality of day-to-day medical practice. Key series features • Written in short chunks, each topic is covered in a two-page spread to enable readers to fi nd information quickly. They are also perfect for test preparation and gaining a quick overview of a subject without scanning through unnecessary pages. • Content is evidence based and complemented by the expertise and judgment of experienced authors. • The Handbooks provide a humanistic approach to medicine—it’s more than just treatment by numbers. • A “friend in your pocket,” the Handbooks offer honest, reliable guidance about the diffi culties of practicing medicine and provide coverage of both the practice and art of medicine. • For quick reference, useful “everyday” information is included on the inside covers.

Treatment for the con- ditions described in this material is highly dependent on the individual circumstances. And, while this material is designed to offer accurate infor- mation with respect to the subject matter covered and to be current as of the time it was written, research and knowledge about medical and health issues is constantly evolving and dose schedules for medications are being revised continually, with new side effects recognized and accounted for regularly. Readers must therefore always check the product informa- tion and clinical procedures with the most up-to-date published prod- uct information and data sheets provided by the manufacturers and the most recent codes of conduct and safety regulation. Oxford University Press and the authors make no representations or warranties to readers, express or implied, as to the accuracy or completeness of this material, including without limitation that they make no representation or warran- ties as to the accuracy or effi cacy of the drug dosages mentioned in the material. The authors and the publishers do not accept, and expressly disclaim, any responsibility for any liability, loss, or risk that may be claimed or incurred as a consequence of the use and/or application of any of the contents of this material. Draznin_Prelims.indd v 4/2/2011 6:51:22 PM vi Preface In this era of rapid electronic transfer of medical information, the ques- tion is often posed: “Do we need textbooks anymore, as by the time they are printed much of the information is outdated?” This question is best answered by this publication, which offers the reader current, practical, clinical evidence–based information that will benefi t patients with endo- crine and metabolic disease. This handbook is not meant to be a fully comprehensive tome but to act as a quick and easily accessible source of information. While we have endeavored to include material that is as current as pos- sible, the many advances occurring in the fi eld of endocrinology and dia- betes made this a daunting task. This meant including emerging advances in translational research, molecular biology, genomics, diagnostic tests, and therapies without sacrifi cing clinical presentations. Our expert colleagues, to whom we as co-editors are eternally indebted and who are too numerous to mention individually, have devoted a con- siderable amount of time to ensuring the provision of the most relevant information in a very readable fashion. They accepted their assignments with grace and a willingness to participate, which made our task as editors so much easier. We are certain that the reader will enjoy this U.S. version of the O xford Handbook of Endocrinology and Diabetes and apply this to their clinical practice. We thank the authors of the original British edition, Helen E. Turner and John A.H. Wass. We also thank the editorial staff of the Oxford University Press for their professional assistance.
