Features: With the rapid development of China's national economy, people's living standards have greatly improved. The abundant material supply and superior living conditions in modern society, however, have led people to neglect the importance of nutrition knowledge and learning. The competition for talent has brought pressure, while the significantly reduced physical activity among office workers and the entry into an aging society have contributed to the increasing incidence of endocrine and metabolic diseases year by year, such as diabetes, obesity, hyperlipidemia, and gout. The common characteristics of these diseases are chronic onset, multiple complications, and their status as major contributors to cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, and kidney disease events. Due to the long treatment duration and high medical expenses, these diseases impose a heavy economic burden on the country, society, and families. To enable medical students, resident doctors, and internal medicine doctors to fully familiarize themselves with the clinical symptoms and signs of endocrine and metabolic diseases, master the key points of diagnosis and treatment, and facilitate the application of theoretical knowledge in practice, as well as provide timely access to relevant information when encountering clinical issues, this manual has been jointly compiled by experienced medical experts from the Medical College of Zhejiang University with long-term clinical experience in the field of endocrinology and metabolism. The manual consists of 6 chapters and 32 sections, making it convenient for readers to consult and reference during clinical work.
