    Summary: This clinical handbook is designed to aid with the fast and accurate diagnosis of cardiopulmonary disease. Chapters are structured to support the clinical decision-making process and cover key points such as differential diagnosis, typical and atypical presentation, co-morbidities, and critical steps that should not be missed. The text also outlines time-dependent interventions, overall principles of treatment, and disease course. Abundant images and links to external audio and video resources reinforce understanding. Although the chapters are organized to provide ready access to essential information, the scope of the book is comprehensive and addresses topics including acute coronary syndrome, heart failure, pulmonary embolism, primary and secondary lung diseases, and relevant upper gastrointestinal and neuromuscular diseases. Both adult and pediatric considerations are presented. The book is intended for diagnosticians in emergency medicine, critical care, internal medicine, primary care, and related fields. Medical students, residents, and other medical professionals will appreciate the concise and clear approach.

    Our understanding of the molecular organization of even the simplest mammalian cell membrane--that of the red blood cell--is still incomplete, yet we are reasonably sure of where and how the major components are arranged. The so-called integral membrane proteins are the most likely candidates to serve as receptors and transport sites of surface membranes, and these may be organized as macromolecular complexes with parts of their polypeptides in contact with both sides of the bilayer. These complexes may be either mobile or fixed, and if the latter, perhaps by specific interactions with other membrane proteins. The exposed segments of such glycoproteins could have recognition sites that confer cell, tissue, and/or species specificity created by oligosaccharides attached to the peptide backbone, or by specific amino acid sequences, or a combination of both.
