Slutsåld

The 2nd Edition of this heralded companion to "Braunwald's Heart Disease" explores the molecular mechanisms of cardiology and the scientific advances that are changing the practice of cardiology today. International experts discuss the role of genetics in cardiovascular disease; the molecular basis of ischemic disease, thrombosis and hypertension; genetic mapping approaches to inherited disorders; biologically targeted agents for hypertension and heart failure; and much more. There are abundant figures and tables that illustrate key concepts.
