The broad goal of teaching biochemistry to undergraduate students is to make them understand the scientific basis of the life processes at the molecular level and to orient them towards the application of the knowledge acquired in solving clinical problems. It covers entire syllabus of biochemistry as per guidelines of Medical Council of India with more emphasis on clinical application of the subject. It attempts at exposing the students to the ideal answers to questions often asked in examination. The questions not only test the knowledge but also incorporate the clinical/applied aspects of biochemistry which are so important to help the students to think out of the box. Salient Features - Provides the essential knowledge of biochemistry in question-answer format - Focus specifically on the concepts frequently tested in exams - Supports text with adequate number of line diagrams, flowcharts and tables to facilitate greater retention of knowledge - Emphasises on systematic presentation of content, maintaining a sequential flow of information help in recollecting text easily Additional Feature - Complimentary access to full e-book with Clinical Cases, and chapter wise Multiple Choice Questions and Viva Voce Questions
What's New in the Second Edition• Recent developments in food standards• Ready reckoner of nutritive values of common foods• Several chapters revised to provide information on recent trends in clinical biochemistry • Several chapters revised for better clarity of concepts
The second edition of this book is thoroughly revised as per guidelines of National Medical Commission in accordance with the competency-based curriculum of Biochemistry. The questions not only test the knowledge but also incorporate the clinical/applied aspects of biochemistry which are so important to help the students to think out of the box. • Uniquely presented in question-answer format covering all categories of questions that are expected in a university exam, in concise manner for rapid revision. • Covers questions which can be asked in different way (different questions by same answers), this helps students to write answers for these questions in exams. • Answers presented in bullet points supported with tables, boxes, and figures, helps students to frame answers to questions and replicate the same in exams. • Complex/Key information is summarized in tables helps in quick revision during exams and also breaks monotony text. • Applied aspects provided at appropriate places in colored boxes, adds more clarity to the answer provided. • Recapitulation of points to ponder at the end of text for quick revision. • Prepares students for both theory and viva voce. • Reorganized topics in the same order as presented in new curriculum. • Insight into the biochemistry CBME curriculum with respect to Attitude, Ethics and Communication (AETCOM), Early Clinical Exposure (ECE), and self-directed learning in order to help in the making of the Indian Medical Graduate. • Ensured coverage of all competency codes integrated within the text as per new competency-based undergraduate curriculum. • Inclusion of 250 multiple-choice questions, and 500 short questions and viva voce for self-assessment of the topics studied. • Insertion of clinical cases along with answers to clinical cases at the end of the book to help understand the biochemical basis of disease and its management.
