Metabolic Syndrome and Related Disorders is the only peer-reviewed journal to focus solely on the pathophysiology, recognition, and treatment of metabolic syndrome. The Journal enables you to keep pace with new research, and better understand the key clinical implications and applications.Coverage includes: • Insulin resistance • Central obesity • Glucose intolerance • Dyslipidemia with elevated triglycerides • Low HDL-cholesterol • Microalbuminuria • Predominance of small dense LDL-cholesterol particles • Hypertension • Endothelial dysfunction • Oxidative stress • InflammationIn this era of explosive growth of diabetes and obesity the in-depth study of metabolic syndrome is an urgent priority. A suspected precursor to a wide range of diseases, including type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, stroke, cancer, polycystic ovary syndrome, gout, and asthma, metabolic syndrome is comprehensively covered in this Journal to meet the imperative for research, data, and commentary.
The powerful emergence and global spread of antibiotic resistant microbial pathogens and resistance genes in the 1990s presents challenges to a wide range of disciplines - from the molecular biology of resistance mechanisms, virulence genes, and disease through molecular epidemiology all the way to drug design, infection control, and medical practice. This international journal provides a multidisciplinary forum for peer-reviewed original publications as well as topical reviews and special reports.
Migration is a multi-dimensional, multifaceted and complex global phenomenon that affects every country in the world. Almost all sovereign countries in the world are either points of origin, transit points or destination countries for migrants, often combinations of all three or any two, at any point of time.
A new journal in 2012, Migration & Development invites contributions to highlight the various facets of international migration beyond the conventional lines such as the migration-development nexus, to borderless migration, refugees, return migration, labour laws, policy changes and the implications of all of them for both the sending and receiving countries. The journal aims to:
• broaden the understanding of different types of migration, official and unauthorized, and their contribution to the demographic, social and economic changes both in the countries of origin and destination.
• examine the economic implications of remittances, and their social and psychological costs on different segments of the population (children, women and the elderly)
• explore cross-border migration – the processes, magnitudes and its implications
• understand the health implications of international migration, particularly for the countries of origin – from the emergence of epidemics and other communicable diseases, their control and cure to the treatment of life-style diseases such as hypertension, cardiovascular ailments and diabetes.
• stimulate studies on problems faced by the migrants in the receiving countries, and both the negative and positive impact of migrants in the receiving countries in different parts of the world.
