"This multi-author text provides timely discussion of multiple aspects of both Type I and II diabetes that have been of great research interest for at least a decade, but which have heretofore not appeared in a single book. Its 15 chapters cover the entire range of musculoskeletal issues to which patients with Diabetes are vulnerable, from fragility fractures to neuropathic arthropathy, gout, dentition, and the skeletal impacts of diabetic nephropathy and glucose-regulating medications. The individual chapters are comprehensive, lucidly written, and well-organized. This book is a welcome addition to the arsenal of bone-related textbooks and should be extremely useful to investigators in this field as well as to physicians specializing in the management of complex patients with diabetes." --Robert Marcus, M.D., Professor Emeritus, Stanford University "Diabetes Mellitus: Impact on Bone, Dental and Musculoskeletal Health is a comprehensive review of diabetes mellitus and its many complications. What makes this book unique is its focus on less well-known complications of diabetes that impact bone, dental, and musculoskeletal health. This includes concise well written chapters on diabetes, foot and hand disorders, skeletal fragility and fractures, dental implants and periodontal disease, osteoarthritis, neuropathic arthropathy, foot ulcers and infection, and gout. Endocrinologists, primary care physicians, geriatricians, podiatrists, dentists, orthopedists, nurses and researchers interested in diabetes mellitus will find this book to be an up to date, scholarly, well referenced, resource, and a valuable addition to your library. 15 chapters with 26 contributing authors. Interdisciplinary health experts from the United States, Canada and Singapore. Emphasis on less well-known complications of diabetes mellitus. Up to date and comprehensive." --Lee J. Sanders, DPM, Past President Health Care & Education (2000-2001), The American Diabetes Association "For those of us privileged to be healthcare providers, our mandate is to enhance and maximize the quality of a patient’s remaining life. To that end, we mitigate and treat diseases that can foreshorten each journey. Diabetes affects every cell exposed to glucose so it has protean effects on all systems in our bodies. Diabetes influences many other medical systems and its treatment is a cornerstone for healthcare delivery. Professor Meng Tan has provided this first book on the interactions between Diabetes and the Musculoskeletal system-Including some oft neglected areas like sarcopenia, dental diseases, orthopedics/podiatry, and rheumatology. This is a must read for healthcare providers." --Leonard Chuck, PhD, MD
Diabetes Mellitus: Impact on Bone, Dental and Musculoskeletal Health focuses on the under recognized and managed conditions associated with diabetes, including impacts on bone health, dental health, hand, and foot disorders, wounds, infections, and musculoskeletal disorders. A full understanding of the relationship of diabetes to skeletal disorders remains elusive and many physicians who deal with such issues are unclear about causes and management. While the macro- and microvascular complications associated with diabetes mellitus are well known, complications associated with bone, dental and musculoskeletal health are not. Endocrinologists, primary care physicians, geriatricians, podiatrists, dentists, and researchers interested in diabetes mellitus associated bone, dental and musculoskeletal disorders will find this to be a comprehensive tome on the topic.
