Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) is a heterogenous group of genodermatoses characterized by the formation of blisters and erosions on skin and mucous membrans from birth on. The cause are mutations in the genes of structural proteins of the junction between epidermis and dermis. This book deals with the treatment of this skin disease itself and its many extracutaneous complications. There is no previous book which has been focused on the therapy and it will be based on evidence-based data derived from the world ́s largest cohort of inherited EB-patients, the American EB Registry. An important chapter will discuss gene therapy in hereditary EB which has been recently successfully performed within a localized skin site on a single EB patient as a proof-of-principle test. Given its unique collective contents, the monograph will provide the primary source for clinical informations of this oftentimes severe multiorgan disease.

Download or read book Butterfly Burning written by Yvonne Vera and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2000-09-12 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Butterfly Burning brings the brilliantly poetic voice of Zimbabwean writer Yvonne Vera to American readers for the first time. Set in Makokoba, a black township, in the late l940s, the novel is an intensely bittersweet love story. When Fumbatha, a construction worker, meets the much younger Phephelaphi, he"wants her like the land beneath his feet from which birth had severed him." He in turn fills her "with hope larger than memory." But Phephelaphi is not satisfied with their "one-room" love alone. The qualities that drew Fumbatha to her, her sense of independence and freedom, end up separating them. And the closely woven fabric of township life, where everyone knows everyone else, has a mesh too tight and too intricate to allow her to escape her circumstances on her own. Vera exploits language to peel away the skin of public and private lives. In Butterfly Burning she captures the ebullience and the bitterness of township life, as well as the strength and courage of her unforgettable heroine.

Book Synopsis California Cures!: How The California Stem Cell Program Is Fighting Your Incurable Disease! by : Reed Don C
Download or read book California Cures!: How The California Stem Cell Program Is Fighting Your Incurable Disease! written by Reed Don C and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2018-03-16 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thirteen years ago, America faced an epidemic of chronic disease: cancer, paralysis, blindness, arthritis, Alzheimer's disease, diabetes and more. But California voters said "YES!" to a $3 billion stem cell research program: the awkwardly-named California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (CIRM). Born into battle, the scrappy little state agency was immediately blocked by three years of anti-science lawsuits — but it defeated them all. And then? A quiet triumph. With a focused intensity like the Manhattan Project (but for peaceful purposes, not to build a bomb), scientists funded by CIRM took on the challenges: disease and disability called chronic: incurable. In a series of connected stories, accurate though written to entertain, "California Cures" relates a war: science against disease, with lives on the line. Think what it means for a paralyzed young man to recover the use of his hands, or for a formerly-blind mother to see her teenaged children — for the first time! Do you know the "bubble-baby" syndrome? Infants without a proper immune system typically die young; a common cold can kill. But for eighteen babies in a stem cell clinical trial, a different future: they were cured of their disease. No one can predict the pace of science, nor say when cures will come; but California is bringing the fight. The reader will meet the scientists involved, the women and men behind the microscope, and share their struggle. Above all, "California Cures" is a call for action. Washington may argue about the expense of health care (and who will get it), but California works to bring down the mountain of medical debt: stem cell therapies to ease suffering, and save lives. Will California build on success — and invest $5 billion more in stem cell research? "We have the momentum," says author Don C Reed, "We dare not stop short. Chronic disease threatens everyone — we are fighting for your family, and mine!"

Book Synopsis The Butterfly Caste by : Elizabeth Etheridge
Download or read book The Butterfly Caste written by Elizabeth Etheridge and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1972-07-31 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a medical detective story of the search for a killer. Pellagra, the disease of the four Ds: diarrhea, dermatitis, dementia, and death, was epidemic in the Southern United States in the early part of this century. The often fatal disease was characterized by the dramatic stigmata of an ugly red "butterfly" across the nose and a symmetrical skin rash on the extremities. Although it has been described and studied by European physicians as early as 1735, and pellagroid symptoms had long been identified in this country, pellagra was not acknowledged as a discrete disease until 1907. In that year an epidemic broke out in an asylum in Alabama. Reports of other cases quickly followed, and within a few years pellagra was pandemic in the South. The search for the killer was on, but it would be many years before the cause could be isolated and a cure found. In 1914, Dr. Joseph Goldberger, a United States Public Health Service physician, became director of the PHS pellagra research program. This book traces his efforts to identify the culprit responsible for this disease and ultimately to find the cure in 1937 that would help to eliminate it.
