Sommario/riassunto |
|
Amphetamines are a family of substituted phenethylamine compounds that achieve their neurochemical and behavioral effects by liberating vesicular biogenic amine stores. Classified as psychostimulants, these drugs are commonly misused and abused. This book presents current research in the study of the neurobiological mechanisms, and pharmacology effects of amphetamines. Topics discussed include the |

|
|
neurotoxicity of methamphetamine; amphetamine effects on cardiac, endocrine and gastrointestinal systems; amphetamine dependence sensitization and tolerance hypotheses and amphetamine effects on allergic lung inflammation, amphetamine withdrawal and schizophrenia. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
This book addresses diabetic retinopathy, an eye disease that remains one of the main causes of vision loss if not diagnosed and managed properly. It aims to cover the entire spectrum of the disease by describing its clinical identification and characterization, pathophysiology, epidemiology, and medical and surgical management. ""Diabetic Retinopathy"" also offers a complete overview of the present understanding of diabetic retinopathy, covering current practice but also including original contributions that offer novel perspectives for |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
Due to the unprecedented growth in wireless applications over the past decade, development of low-cost solutions for RF and microwave communication systems has become of great importance. This practical new book is the first comprehensive treatment of lumped elements, which are playing a critical role in the development of the circuits that make these cost-effective systems possible. The books offers you an in-depth understanding of the different types of RF and microwave circuit elements, including inductors, capacitors, resistors, transformers, via holes, airbridges, and crossovers. |
