    Summary: Endocrine Emergencies: Recognition and Treatment offers a state-of-the-art update on the management of endocrine, diabetic, and metabolic emergencies. Developed by renowned experts, this comprehensive and easy to read title brings the field fully up to date, setting a high standard for diagnosis and treatment in each category. All chapters begin with a summary that presents, in concentrated form, what the physician needs to know to begin the evaluation and emergency treatment of the known endocrine emergencies. This is followed by an extended discussion of the pathophysiology that can be read after initial treatment has begun. Covering such areas as hypoglycemia, acute adrenal insufficiency, ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome, thyroid storm, and pituitary apoplexy, just to name several, Endocrine Emergencies: Recognition and Treatment is an invaluable, practical resource that will be of great interest to endocrinologists, internal medicine and emergency room physicians, fellows and residents.

    Optokinetic and vestibular training alternatively applied during two cycles, using sinusoidal pendular rotation and a stationary projection optokinetic stimulator, resulted in a progressive vestibular response decline. This response decrement was only revealed by the parameter of the slow-phase velocity. Combined optokinetic and vestibular training shows a facilitating effect upon vestibular habituation which cannot be induced by repetitive pendular rotation alone. Both a response decline, expressed by the parameter of the slow-phase velocity and a response increment, expressed by the number of nystagmus beats, were observed during one cycle of the pendular rotation. Both phenomena could be induced by alternative optokinetic and vestibular training and were interpreted as typical visual-vestibular interaction mechanisms.
