Up-to-date and comprehensive clinical information is supported by extensive references from scientific literature. Nutrition support is covered throughout the lifecycle, in specific system disorders such as hepatic and renal failure, in general system disorders such as HIV disease and obesity, and in physiologic stress situations such as bone marrow and stem cell transplantation. Expert knowledge and experience is provided from over 60 distinguished contributors. Useful appendices cover normal weight and body fat by means, standard deviations, and percentiles for men and women. A new design with tables, boxes, and figures provides easier access to information. Chapters have been reorganized to present content more efficiently. Consistent headings throughout the text organize content more effectively. A new pocket guide companion - packaged with each copy of the text - includes useful facts, formulas, and equations from the main text.
