{"product_id":"preventive-female-sex-factors-against-ichiro-shimizu-9781608054091","title":"Preventive Female Sex Factors Against the Development of Chronic Liver Disease","description":"Liver cancer, cirrhosis and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease are observed predominately in men. Being male or female is believed to be an important human variable that affects health and liver disease throughout the life span. However, few works have been published on the biological mechanisms underlying gender specific differences in liver disease. Several mechanisms underlying sex-associated differences of progression of liver disease are demonstrated in this book based on biological factors as estrogen and hepatic iron stores. Readers will gain a better understanding of the pathogenesis of these sex-associated differences in liver disease and on how to design healthcare for liver disease more effectively for individuals belonging to both genders. The book should be a useful reference on gender specific medicine for counselors and clinicians as well as for patients with chronic liver disease.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ichiro Shimizu\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1608054098\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781608054091\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bentham Science Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/31\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 126\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.93lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 8.50w x 0.33d","brand":"Ichiro Shimizu","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47305339830527,"sku":"9781608054091","price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bc4455a0-8133-48d6-8e41-2cbb72ffc306.jpg?v=1758830616","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/preventive-female-sex-factors-against-ichiro-shimizu-9781608054091","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
