Description: Lyme disease, so called since Steere et al. [1, 2] inquired into an arthritis epidemic
among young children in the community of Old Lyme, Conn., USA, in the late 1970s,
has a very long European history. Its cutaneous manifestations, the most frequent
signs of the disease, had already been described at the end of the 19th century and the
beginning of the 20th century by physicians like Buchwald, Pick, Herxheimer, Hartman,
Afzelius and Lipschutz [35] . Additionally, two French physicians in a landmark
paper published in 1922, Garin and Bujadoux [6] , reported a patient who developed
erythema chronicum migrans followed by painful meningoradiculitis. Shortly
before the symptoms began, this patient was bitten by a tick and he had a positive
Bordet-Wasserman test, which was used at this time to diagnose syphilis. They stated,
however, that although this test was positive, this patient did not have syphilis, and
concluded that this patient had a tick-borne disease that induced cutaneous and neurological
manifestations caused by a spirochete different from Treponema pallidum .
It was not until the early 1980s that their prediction proved to be correct, when Burgdorfer
et al. [7] were able to isolate a bacterium belonging to the family of Spirochaetaceae,
first from ticks and then from humans. Interestingly, the first North American
observation of Lyme disease, a patient with erythema migrans, was only published
in 1970 [8]

Pharmaceutical Drug Analysis

Pharmaceutical Drug Analysis
By Ashutosh Kar

http://www.book4doc.com/41106

• Publisher: New Age Publications (Academic),India


• Number Of Pages: 564

Pharmaceutical Drug Analysis Book Description

During the past two decades, there have been magnificent and significant advances in both analytical instrumentation and computerized data handling devices across the globe. In this specific context the remarkable proliferation of windows-based computer software stretched overwhelmingly towards instrument control, real time data handling abilities and the ultimate usage of Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS) are surprisingly noteworthy.

Pharmaceutical Drug Analysis in its present form essentially comprises six parts containing in all 32 well-elaborated chapters predominantly dealing with the set of descriptive analytical methodologies developed to control and assure the quality of the final marketed product; and, therefore, includes both qualitative and quantitative methods of analysis to help in the identification as well as purity of the product.

The main purpose of this textbook is to discuss in an explicit and lucid manner several of the newer methods that now find rather wider application in the domain of pharmaceutical analysis. The basic principle of each technique is critically treated with emphasis on factors that directly affect its proper and judicious application to various analytical problems. An in-depth knowledge of these principles, instrumentations, modus operandi, experimental parameters, and sample preparation procedures in order to optimize the performance procedure of typical assay of pharmaceutical secondary products i.e., dosage forms, calculations etc., along with cognate assays from the Official Compendia have been included profusely.

Undergraduate and postgraduate students of pharmaceutical drug analysis, quality assurance chemists, industrial trainees, bulk-drug professionals and those in related disciplines earnestly requiring a substantial fundamental understanding and knowledge of the subject will certainly find this a much needed suitable compilation for reading and reference.

The broad coverage included in each of the selected analytical techniques would render Pharmaceutical Drug Analysis to be an useful source of ideas, inspiration for research, and developing newer practical solutions to problems in the ever expanding field of pharmaceutical analysis.

Studies of the mechanisms relating blood supply to the brain appeared to be, in some sense, at a deadlock. Despite extensive application of different methodical approaches, no qualitative progress has been observed in these studies at the present time. This is perhaps due to the traditional, but not understandable, separation of neurophysiological and 'circulatory' studies. It may seem very paradoxical, but the study of cerebral blood circulation proceeds almost in complete isolation from the knowledge about brain functions and does not take into account the specificity of the working brain as a part of the whole body.This book comprehensively addresses the issues of blood flow regulation. It is well known that the brain belongs to the group of organs having a high level of oxygen consumption. Oxygen consumption by the brain is an average 4.6 ml per 100 g of tissue per minute. In humans, the level of oxygen consumption by the whole brain attains 46 ml/min.

Product Description:
The Nuts and Bolts of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy

By Tom Kenny, RN
Vice President, Clinical Education and Training, St. Jude Medical, Austin, TX, USA

Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is an exciting new option for a growing number of heart failure patients, but CRT systems present special challenges to clinicians, even those accustomed to working with pacemakers. Now, Tom Kenny demystifies the field in this timely, easy-to-understand paperback.
The Nuts and Bolts of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy concentrates on the practical aspects of how these devices work and how to follow the growing number of patients who are using them to fight heart failure. Designed specifically for the non-specialist, the book explains how the device works, how and why CRT-paced ECGs look different, and how to test for proper function of a CRT system. It also includes a systematic (numbered sequence) guide to follow-up that you can use in the clinic.

This practical reference offers:

• clear, straightforward explanations that require no prior training in device therapy


• many CRT ECGs to familiarize you with what you will encounter in practice


• a generous illustration program that includes diagrams, charts, and anatomy pictures to reinforce the text


• sensible advice on daily issues and troubleshooting systems


• current refrences to the latest clinical studies and device technology


• accessible information, organized for ease of navigation


• a helpful glossary at the end of the book

Both practicing and prospective clinicians will find CRT much less daunting when The Nuts and Bolts of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy is close at hand.

The Menopausal Transition: Interface Between Gynecology and Psychiatry

The Menopausal Transition: Interface Between Gynecology and Psychiatry
(Key Issues in Mental Health)
By Claudio N. Soares, Michelle Warren

• Publisher: S. Karger AG (Switzerland)


• Number Of Pages: 149


• Publication Date: 2009-04-30


• ISBN-10 / ASIN: 3805591012


• ISBN-13 / EAN: 9783805591010

Part of the Foreword:

The interplay between the hormone milieu, physiologic changes and psychological
symptoms across the female life cycle has long intrigued scientists and physicians.
After all, women appear to be particularly vulnerable to the development of psychiatric
conditions during certain periods in life that are marked not only by intense
sometimes chaotic hormone variations and psychosocial stressors but also
accompanied by changes in social, family and professional roles in life. For several
decades, health professionals and researchers in womens health and psychiatry
have attempted to explore the epidemiology, clinical characteristics and underlying
mechanisms that contribute to various medical and psychiatric conditions during
these windows of vulnerability in a womans life. Albeit important, isolated efforts
have produced limited understanding of the complex nature of these phenomena.
Fortunately, more and more investigators have become increasingly aware of the
importance of knowledge exchange and integrated research when dealing with
female-specific somatic and psychological conditions.
The menopausal transition poses a particular challenge to professionals in psychiatry
and gynecology and such a challenge demands an integrated effort. Thus, we
conceptualized this book to close the gap in clinical and research knowledge while
examining the menopausal transition from an integrated angle of psychologists, psychiatrists,
gynecologists, endocrinologists, epidemiologists, etc. The book begins with
an overview of what to expect from the menopause transition and its interface with
the aging process. Next, relevant but still understudied aspects of the menopausal
transition ***uality, sociocultural changes, impact of life stressors, and emergence
of depression are explored. This is followed by reviews of the physiology of thermoregulation
and the occurrence of hot flashes; a better understanding of vasomotor
complaints is essential given the prevalence and significant burden associated with
these symptoms and their putative links to mood changes and sleep disruption.

Humoral Immunity in Kidney Transplantation: What Clinicians Need to Know

Humoral Immunity in Kidney Transplantation: What Clinicians Need to Know
(Contributions to Nephrology)
By G. Remuzzi, Stefano Chiaramonte, Norberto Perico, Claudio Ronco

Publisher: S. Karger AG (Switzerland)
Number Of Pages: 145
Publication Date: 2008-10-31
ISBN-10 / ASIN: 380558945X
ISBN-13 / EAN: 9783805589451

Product Description:
As recent advances in immunosuppression and apheresis techniques have opened new avenues for the management of humoral immunity, interest in ABO-incompatible kidney transplantation has been renewed. Moreover, new screening techniques - such as the single antigen bead assay - allow for the detection and definition of very low levels of alloantibody, which has had a positive impact on the treatment possibilities in highly sensitized adult patients with end-stage renal disease. But despite these advances, a theoretical rationale is still missing for both the decision to transplant a sensitized patient and the classification of the transplant as low, medium or high risk. There is also no uniform approach with regard to pre-transplant desensitization protocols, and it is unclear whether particular post-transplant immunosuppression will be required and what would be the best combination treatment. Last but not least, the frequency and actual clinical impact of alloantibodies developed after transplantation on short- and long-term graft survival need to be ascertained. Aimed especially at the clinician, this publication presents recent insights in the characterization and pathogenetic role of humoral immunity in chronic allograft injury and investigates the perspectives for novel immunosuppressive therapies to control antibody production after transplantation.

Dementia in Clinical Practice

Dementia in Clinical Practice
(Frontiers of Neurology and Neuroscience)
By P. Giannakopoulos, P. R. Hof

Publisher: S. Karger AG (Switzerland)
Number Of Pages: 184
Publication Date: 2009-02-28
ISBN-10 / ASIN: 3805590156
ISBN-13 / EAN: 9783805590150
From the Preface?
Research on dementing illnesses is in the midst of an agitated period. During the past
50 years, it has progressively matured from a primarily social service problem to the
clinicopathological definition of a wide spectrum of diseases, evaluation of measures
of cognition, analysis of brain microstructure, and, more recently, visualization of the
pathological substrates such as b-amyloid and tau protein in vivo. Despite these
impressive developments in diagnostic tools, biomarkers, and imaging modalities, we
still ignore the etiology of the more frequent clinical syndromes leading to the irreversible
loss of cognitive functions, namely Alzheimers disease, Lewy body disease,
vascular and frontotemporal dementia. Recent epidemiological work highlights the
complex relationships among these entities by demonstrating the high frequency of
mixed conditions in very old people and indicating that they may share common risk
factors. Moreover, the old and still unresolved question of the limits between normal
and pathological aging is to date complicated not only by the description of several
transitional forms of mild cognitive impairment characterized by the predominance
of brain compensation phenomena that allow for preserving cognitive performances
and social adaptation despite an often substantial biological compromise but also by
poor response to currently available substitution treatments. Paralleling the difficulty
to formulate clear pathogenetic hypotheses, an accelerated pace of compounds entering
clinical trials are now available mainly for Alzheimers disease. Most agents still
target clinical end points associated with mild to moderate forms of the disease rather
than focus on modulation of the underlying pathologies. Although there are obvious
practical but also ethical reasons for this, meaningful progress in other areas of medicine
such as cardiology and oncology has targeted and monitored improvement or
abatement of pathology as the primary end point as a successful disease-modifying
strategy.

From the Preface:

Lyme disease, so called since Steere et al. [1, 2] inquired into an arthritis epidemic
among young children in the community of Old Lyme, Conn., USA, in the late 1970s,
has a very long European history. Its cutaneous manifestations, the most frequent
signs of the disease, had already been described at the end of the 19th century and the
beginning of the 20th century by physicians like Buchwald, Pick, Herxheimer, Hartman,
Afzelius and Lipschtz [35] . Additionally, two French physicians in a landmark
paper published in 1922, Garin and Bujadoux [6] , reported a patient who developed
erythema chronicum migrans followed by painful meningoradiculitis. Shortly
before the symptoms began, this patient was bitten by a tick and he had a positive
Bordet-Wasserman test, which was used at this time to diagnose syphilis. They stated,
however, that although this test was positive, this patient did not have syphilis, and
concluded that this patient had a tick-borne disease that induced cutaneous and neurological
manifestations caused by a spirochete different from Treponema pallidum .
It was not until the early 1980s that their prediction proved to be correct, when Burgdorfer
et al. [7] were able to isolate a bacterium belonging to the family of Spirochaetaceae,
first from ticks and then from humans. Interestingly, the first North American
observation of Lyme disease, a patient with erythema migrans, was only published
in 1970 [8] .

Publisher: Morgan and Claypool Publishers | ISBN: 1598299751 | edition 2009 | PDF | 218 pages | 4,92 mb

The auscultation method is an important diagnostic indicator for hemodynamic anomalies. Heart sound classification and analysis play an important role in the auscultative diagnosis. The term phonocardiography refers to the tracing technique of heart sounds and the recording of cardiac acoustics vibration by means of a microphone-transducer. Therefore, understanding the nature and source of this signal is important to give us a tendency for developing a competent tool for further analysis and processing, in order to enhance and optimize cardiac clinical diagnostic approach. This book gives the reader an inclusive view of the main aspects in phonocardiography signal processing. Table of Contents: Introduction to Phonocardiography Signal Processing / Phonocardiography Acoustics Measurement / PCG Signal Processing Framework / Phonocardiography Wavelets Analysis / Phonocardiography Spectral Analysis / PCG Pattern Classification / Special Application of Phonocardiography / Phonocardiography Acoustic Imaging and Mapping.

Transoesophageal Echocardiography (TOE/TEE) in cardiac patients is now almost routine. Its use in cardiac monitoring has also extended to include critically ill patients for non-cardiac surgery and the intensive care setting. Specific accreditation is required prior to practice of TOE/TEE involving a written examination and a documented logbook of experience. This book has been specifically designed to help candidates pass the written exam and has been structured around the syllabus. Providing a summary of all relevant information, this is an invaluable study aid. Lists of further reading material are provided with every topic, including guidelines and safety, cardiomyopathies, heart disease, haemodynamic calculations and many more. Each chapter ends with a series of exam-style questions for self-assessment. An extremely useful book for trainee anaesthetists, intensivists, trainee cardiologists and cardiac surgeons.
