More Description
Translational Nephrology: Designing and Conducting Clinical and Translational Research covers the principles of evidence-based medicine and applies these principles to the design of translational investigations. The reader will come to fully understand important concepts including case-control study, prospective cohort study, randomized trial, and reliability study. Medical researchers will benefit from greater confidence in their ability to initiate and execute their own investigations, avoid common pitfalls in nephrology, and know what is needed for successful collaboration. Further, this title is an indispensable tool in grant writing and funding efforts. The practical, straightforward approach helps the aspiring investigator navigate challenging considerations in nephrology related study design and implementation. The book provides valuable discussions of the critical appraisal of published studies in nephrology, allowing the reader to learn how to evaluate the quality of studies with respect to measuring outcomes to make effective use of all types of evidence in patient care. In short, this practical guidebook will be of interest to every Medical Researcher and Nephrologist who has ever had a good clinical idea but not the knowledge of how to test it.
