Paediatric Endocrinology: Management of Endocrine Disorders in Children and Adolescents

《小兒內分泌學》涵蓋了轉譯內分泌學和臨床實踐的主要方面，是兒科醫生和內分泌學家的理想資源。該書強調所涵蓋主題的新型轉譯方面，以及診斷和治療的分子進展，儘管臨床相關性，特別是基於證據的臨床管理，仍然至關重要。此外，適當的地方還討論了從童年到青春期和成年期的過渡。

本書由該領域的知名和新興專家共同撰寫，旨在成為兒科內分泌學家在職業生涯的各個階段的重要參考資料，以及對內分泌學和糖尿病感興趣的一般兒科醫生，以及在成人實踐中也可能治療兒童和青少年的內分泌學家。

該書是SpringerReference計劃的一部分，該計劃提供了使用動態同行評審出版流程不斷更新的“活版”版本。

He has recently been elected to serve as President of the European Society for Pediatric Endocrinology in 2020. He has also been appointed co-Chair of the Pituitary Main Thematic Group of the ENDO-ERN initiative.
Professor Dattani has established a laboratory group investigating the molecular basis of hypothalamo-pituitary disease at UCL. He has identifiednovel genes implicated in hypothalamo-pituitary development in patients with congenital hypopituitarism, and more recently has worked on understanding the molecular basis of a paediatric brain tumour called adamantinomatous craniopharyngioma. He has authored more than 250 publications including original articles and scholarly reviews in a number of high-impact journals, as well as several book chapters. He sits on the advisory boards and editorial boards of numerous journals. He has co-authored 2 textbooks and is currently working on a further 2 books.
