The second edition of this biochemistry study guide for clinicians who need to pass the USLME Step 1 contains 51 real-life examples that are designed to reflect questions on the latest set of exams. Toy (obstetrics and gynecology, U. of Texas Medical School at Houston), Seifert (biochemistry and molecular biology, U. of Texas Medical School at Houston), Strobel (biochemistry and molecular biology, U. of Texas Medical School at Houston) and Harms (obstetrics and gynecology, The Methodist Hospital, Houston) list the approaches for applying the basics of biochemistry to clinical medicine by focusing on learning, reading and reviewing the diseases. Each case study contains a primer for approaching each problem in a clinical way, therefore helping students to "think like a doctor."
