Geriatric nutrition addresses how ageing alters metabolism, body composition, and nutrient requirements across the later life course. This book opens with physiology of ageing and nutritional vulnerabilities—sarcopenia, frailty, and changes in appetite and taste. It then presents practical assessment tools for malnutrition and dysphagia, plus evidence-based dietary strategies to maintain function and prevent decline. Chapters discuss nutritional management in chronic disease, medication-nutrient interactions, and tailoring interventions across care settings from community to long-term care. Implementation guidance includes menu planning, oral supplementation, and monitoring outcomes. Aimed at dietitians, geriatricians, and multidisciplinary care teams, it combines clinical evidence with pragmatic care plans.

Detailed and comprehensive, this book provides an anatomical exploration of the male and female reproductive systems. It covers the structures, functions, and interactions of reproductive organs, highlighting their developmental stages and variations. Clinical correlations address anatomical considerations in fertility, reproductive surgeries, and pathological conditions, serving as a valuable resource for medical professionals and students alike.

Focused on the physiological mechanisms of reproduction, this book examines hormone regulation, ovarian and testicular function, and the dynamics of reproductive cycles. It explores the interaction between endocrine systems and reproductive organs, addressing fertility disorders and their management. Emphasis is placed on the latest advancements in reproductive physiology research and their implications for reproductive health and medical interventions.
