Clinical Cases in Biochemistry , in its second edition, is a case-based companion for first-year MBBS biochemistry. It teaches the subject through worked clinical cases: each begins with a presentation, then moves through the biochemical reasoning, laboratory findings and interpretation, so that pathways are learned in the context of a patient. This edition is thoroughly revised as per the revised competency-based medical education (CBME) curriculum notified by the National Medical Commission (NMC) in 2024. Clinical cases are now an assessed component of both internal and summative MBBS examinations under this curriculum, and the cases are framed to that requirement, with short answers linked to specified competencies. They are also written to be useful for the Foreign Medical Graduate Examination and other licensing examinations. The book is arranged in 11 sections with more than 60 cases: carbohydrate metabolism (including diabetes mellitus, diabetic ketoacidosis, G6PD deficiency, galactosemia and glycogen storage disease); protein and amino acid metabolism (albinism, alkaptonuria, maple syrup urine disease, phenylketonuria, multiple myeloma, urea cycle disorders); lipid metabolism; vitamins; minerals; enzymes (myocardial infarction, acute pancreatitis, paracetamol and methanol poisoning); heme and haemoglobin metabolism (porphyrias, jaundice, sickle cell anaemia, thalassaemia); hormones; water, electrolyte and acid-base balance; nucleic acid metabolism (gout, Lesch-Nyhan syndrome); and a miscellaneous section. Every section closes with a 'Give Reasons Why' short-answer set, and a DigiNerve code adds video lectures, notes and self-assessment. Who This Book Is For: MBBS first year students: the primary readership, using it alongside the main biochemistry text to prepare for case-based internal and summative assessment. FMGE aspirants: as a way to revise clinical biochemistry through the case format used in licensing examinations. Why This Book Helps: Matches the assessment: cases are written to the CBME requirement that clinical cases appear in both internal and summative MBBS examinations. Makes pathways stick: learning a pathway through a patient presentation and its laboratory findings anchors it better than reading it in isolation. Builds answer technique: the 'Give Reasons Why' sets train the short-answer reasoning examiners look for. Covers the clinically important disorders: the case list concentrates on the metabolic and nutritional conditions most often examined and seen. Key Features: 11 sections with more than 60 clinical cases across metabolic, nutritional, enzyme, heme and electrolyte disorders. Thoroughly revised as per the CBME curriculum notified by NMC (2024). Each case gives presentation, biochemical reasoning and laboratory interpretation, with short answers linked to competencies. A 'Give Reasons Why' short-answer set at the end of every section. DigiNerve digital access: video lectures, notes and self-assessment.
