View Rights PortalThe aim of many current global metabolic profiling studies is to discover and apply new metabolic biomarkers. These may be indicative of the mechanisms of disease or the propensity for it to develop, or may enable diagnosis, patient stratification, and prediction/monitoring of response to therapy. The use of global metabolic profiling in the clinic in the future seems assured, and it seems likely that future application will include novel innovations that will put metabolic profiling into the doctor’s consulting room or even into the hands of the surgeon in the operating theatre. The twelve chapters of this timely book provide a snapshot of the current state of the art in metabolic profiling in the clinic.
Adolescence is a time of many doubts, anxieties and uncertainties. In this phase, sexuality is unfolding, and we are going through — because everyone has gone, is going or will go through — self-questions about all conditions, all desires, including regarding sexuality. If on the one hand, we see in beautiful social networks beautiful movements of self-acceptance and discovery, on the other hand we live in a time of great obscurantism and attempt to cage the desires and contain the experiences of young people – whether at home or at school, and unfortunately, many times, with public authority initiative. This book asks this of young people, who often find themselves trapped by a cultural need (or family pressure) to create heteronormative bonds, when, in fact, they feel the desire for people of the same sex. But this book also understands that it is necessary to take this issue to the world, so that everyone reflects on otherness, sexuality and, mainly, the many possibilities of affection and desire. Por que não consigo gostar dele/dela? is a book with two sides, two covers, four stories and many testimonials.
