520			_aClinical Decisions in Nephrology: A Problem-Solving Approach provides a useful resource for those interested in renewing their clinical knowledge, diagnostic and therapeutic skills in nephrology. Each chapter consists of a series of challenging, clinically-oriented cases. The selected case reports focus on the essential aspects of the patient’s presentation, laboratory data, and management to assist in the differential diagnosis. A series of logical questioning from the presentation of the signs and symptoms is followed by a detailed explanation that reviews recent publications and translates emerging areas of science into data that is useful at the bedside. An updated bibliography is included after each set of clinical cases. Farahnak Assadi, M.D., is Professor of Pediatrics, Director, Section of Pediatric Nephrology, Rush University Medical Center, Chicago, Illinois. _bCommon terms and phrases: ACE inhibitor acid activity acute administration agents associated bicarbonate biopsy blood bone calcium cause cells chloride choice chronic clinical combination consistent correct answer decreased diabetes diagnosis dialysis disorders diuretic dose edema effective elevated et al evaluation examination excretion factor findings fluid following statements function furosemide gene girl glucose hemodialysis hypertension hyponatremia improve incorrect increased indicated infusion initial intake intravenous kidney disease Laboratory less levels loss lower Measurement medications metabolic acidosis metabolic alkalosis months mutations nephritic Nephrol nephropathy normal old boy oral osmolality patients phosphate physical plasma potassium present primary progression protein proteinuria receiving reduce Reference regarding renal failure respiratory response reveals risk saline serum creatinine serum sodium severe shows sodium stone studies suggest syndrome tests therapy transplantation treated treatment trial tubular Type urinary urine volume
