Abstract: Widely regarded as the classic reference work for the nutrition, dietetic, and allied health professions since its introduction in 1943, the Food and Nutrition Board of the Institute of Medicine, in partnership with Health Canada, has updated what used to be known as Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDAs) and renamed their new approach to these guidelines Dietary Reference Intakes (DRIs). Since 1998, the Institute of Medicine has issued eight exhaustive volumes of DRIs that offer quantitative estimates of nutrient intakes to be used for planning and assessing diets applicable to healthy individuals in the United States and Canada. Now, for the first time, all eight volumes are summarized in one easy-to-use reference volume. Organized by nutrient for ready use, this popular reference volume reviews the function of each nutrient in the human body, food sources, usual dietary intakes, and effects of deficiencies and excessive intakes.

Contents: Introduction to the dietary reference intakes -- Applying the dietary reference intakes -- Macronutrients, healthful diets, and physical activity -- Energy -- Physical activity -- Dietary carbohydrates : sugars and starches -- Fiber -- Dietary fat : total fat and fatty acids -- Cholesterol -- Protein and amino acids -- Water -- Vitamin A -- Vitamin B6 -- Vitamin B12 -- Biotin -- Vitamin C -- Carotenoids -- Choline -- Vitamin D -- Vitamin E -- Folate -- Vitamin K -- Niacin -- Pantothenic acid -- Riboflavin -- Thiamin -- Calcium -- Chromium -- Copper -- Fluoride -- Iodine -- Iron -- Magnesium -- Manganese -- Molybdenum -- Phosphorus -- Potassium -- Selenium -- Sodium and chloride -- Sulfate -- Zinc -- Arsenic, boron, nickel, silicon, and vanadium -- Acknowledgments ; Biographical sketches ; Methods ; Glossary and acronyms ; DRI values for indispensable amino acids by life stage and gender group ; Conversions ; Iron intakes and estimated percentiles of the distribution of iron requirements from the Continuing survey of food intakes by individuals (CSFII), 1994-1996 -- Standard deviation of requirements for nutrients with an EAR -- Estimates of within-subject variation in intake -- Summary tables, dietary reference intakes.

Abstract: The current treatment of peripheral vascular disease is optimized by a collaborative approach among practitioners with expertise in vascular medicine, vascular imaging, open surgery, and endovascular intervention. The Handbook of Endovascular Peripheral Interventions is a comprehensive guide written by a multi-disciplinary group of expert authors to provide practical, focused chapters on the assessment and interventional management of peripheral vascular diseases. Covering all aspects of percutaneous peripheral vascular interventions, each chapter of this highly-illustrated book provides a brief background, etiology, clinical presentation, imaging, and percutaneous treatment of different vascular conditions. Importantly, Tips of the Trade and How I Do It sections within each chapter make the handbook practical for daily use and quick reference. Edited by Dr. Christopher D. Owens (Division of Vascular Surgery) and Dr. Yerem Yeghiazarians (Division of Interventional Cardiology), from the University of California San Francisco School of Medicine, the Handbook of Endovascular Peripheral Interventions is a collaborative effort between interventional cardiologists, vascular surgeons, and interventional radiologists who are experts in the field. Since each subspecialty brings unique expertise and experience to their work, this handbook will be a valuable resource for both beginning and advanced cardiologists, surgeons, and radiologists currently working in peripheral vascular interventions.
