Cardiovascular Review 1982 e-bog

Cardiovascular Review 1982 is an attempt to survey and organize much of the English speaking literature as concisely and expeditiously as possible for those who wish to remain current but have insufficient time for this purpose. The format of the 1982 edition has been changed in the service of space and editorial costs. An outline mode of presentation has been continued while abandoning wasteful indentations of text. Almost all references have been retained for their bibliographic value unless they were felt to be no longer germane to the matrix of medical thinking. With the exception of a few statements and paragraphs in a number of sections, the book has been virtually entirely rewritten. With the addition of 2113 references in the current review, the total number of papers currently identified is well in excess of 5000. The table of contents has been constructed to reflect the order in which the preponderance of cardiologic literature appears. Thus, ischemic heart disease, valvular heart disease, arrhythmias, and conduction defects have been assigned a high priority reflected by their location in the first few sections of this book. Thereafter, topics ranging from acromegaly to tumors of the heart have been addressed in alphabetical order.
