Books in the Oxford Diabetes Library series

Cardiovascular disease is a common cause of morbidity and mortality in people with diabetes, and it is an issue that is becoming increasingly important to cardiologists and specialists in diabetes. This second edition has been updated to include new trial data, new drugs and updates on treatment of diabetes in heart failure patients.

Part of the Oxford Diabetes Library, this book summarizes the key aspects of the medical management of diabetes during pregnancy, acting as a practical introduction particularly for obstetricians and endocrinologists in training.

Diabetic neuropathy is very common, affecting up to 50 % of all diabetic patients. It can result in disabling neuropathic pain, lower extremity amputations and troublesome autonomic neuropathies. With the rising incidence of diabetes the prevalence of neuropathy is also likely to increase. This pocketbook discusses the condition in depth.

This highly practical volume in the Oxford Diabetes Library emphasises both the unique nature of Type 1 diabetes and its fundamental differences from Type 2 diabetes (at least in its "classic" form), and also draws together the common threads of management, and will be relevant to all advanced practitioners in primary and secondary care.
