Introduction

Mind Maps in Clinical Biochemistry is an essential test preparation guide aimed specifically at students studying clinical biochemistry as part of their medical, nursing, or biomedical science courses and for candidates preparing for postgraduate entrance and board examinations. The book presents a series of comprehensive case- based learning modules designed to address key teaching points in clinical biochemistry in the context of real clinical experience. Students can begin to understand routine clinical cases by reading biochemical results in the context of a clinical history, examination findings and other diagnostic information. The content also equips readers with the information to propose a differential diagnosis, a treatment plan and a prognosis at later stages.

Key Features:

  • - Concept maps for basic and applied clinical biochemistry
  • - Structured outline for clinical cases including history with lab findings, clinical correlations and clinical evaluation
  • - Answers and explanations to facilitate learning
  • - References for further reading
  • - OSPE questions for self-assessment and exam preparation

Readership

MBBS Students, 1st year MD Biochemistry students, trainees and advanced scholars (medicine, nursing, clinical biochemistry) preparing for board exams.

Preface

The Biochemistry for Paramedical Courses textbook is prepared strictly according to the major university syllabus. This book is a concise easy-to-follow, and step-by-step format that will aid the paramedical course students to learn biochemistry concepts easily. There are sixteen chapters where biochemistry is discussed in terms of basics, chemistry, and metabolism of biomolecules; nutrition and vitamins; acid-base and electrolyte balance; basic principles of biochemistry investigations (in terms of instrumentation, methods, and applied aspects) and organ function tests are discussed in an easy-to-follow format with diagrams and tables

This book would assist the students to acquire knowledge of the normal biochemical composition and functioning of the human body, and its alterations in disease conditions, and to apply this knowledge in their practice.
