Identifying how, why and in whom gastrointestinal disease
occurs, and what can be done to prevent it, is of key importance
for the modern-day gastroenterologist and researcher.
Brought to you by the world’s leading gastroenterologists,
the second edition of GI Epidemiology: Diseases and Clinical
Methodology is the only book that combines detailed analysis of
the epidemiology of GI disease with a study of the methodology of
clinical research.
With a much greater clinical focus on the diagnostic and
management approach for each disease than
before, all existing chapters are fully updated with the very
latest in statistical and clinical data. In addition, the revised
edition contains several significant improvements, notably:

Bleeding; Hepatitis B and C; Common Tropical GI
Diseases; Nutritional Epidemiology and GI Cancers; and Obesity
among Adults
* More illustrations, including maps of each disease
* A more international focus with the inclusion of two
experienced European editors
* MCQs, summary checklists and key points throughout
* Ten extra online-only chapters on methodological issues
related to GI epidemiology such as Patient reported
GI Epidemiology: Diseases and Clinical Methodology, 2nd
Edition is the perfect reference tool for gastroenterologists
involved in both patient management and clinical research, and also
for epidemiologists involved specifically in GI disease data and
more general epidemiological studies.
