Book Synopsis Chronic Infection, Chlamydia and Coronary Heart Disease by : S. Gupta
Download or read book Chronic Infection, Chlamydia and Coronary Heart Disease written by S. Gupta and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-11-23 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coronary heart disease (CHD) remains a major cause of human mortality and morbidity worldwide. Classical risk factors for atherosclerosis fail to account fully for the wide variations in CHD prevalence and/or severity between differing populations. The search for hitherto unrecognised risk factors has recently focused on the potential role of chronic inflammation and common infections. Chronic Infection, Chlamydia and Coronary Heart Disease is the first book to review the wealth of evidence linking various infective agents with CHD, focusing particularly on the proposed pathogenetic role of the main candidate microorganism, Chlamydia pneumoniae. Written by two leading investigators in the field, the book provides a concise, clearly written and up-to-date account of the diverse lines of evidence - seroepidemiological, pathological, animal and in vitro data and clinical antibiotic trials. The possibility of an infective basis to atherosclerosis and CHD has already attracted much scientific interest. Chronic Infection, Chlamydia and Coronary Heart Disease highlights the key published works on the topic, and concludes with information on existing, ongoing, and future lines of enquiry.
Book Synopsis Infections and the Cardiovascular System by : I.W. Fong
Download or read book Infections and the Cardiovascular System written by I.W. Fong and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-04-11 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Infectious agents have been recognized to involve the heart and vascular system for well over a century. Traditional concepts and teachings of their involvement in the pathogenesis of disease have been by a few established mechanisms. Since the last decade of the 20th century there has been renewed interest in the medical and public media on infectious diseases affecting the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular systems, through their relationship with the development of acceleration of atherosclerosis. This volume highlights and reviews new perspectives of infections on the cardiovascular system as never before. It is a truly valuable resource for scientists, researchers, residents, and fellows in the fields of infectious disease, cardiology, and microbiology.

Book Synopsis The Heart Attack Germ by : Louis Dvonch
Download or read book The Heart Attack Germ written by Louis Dvonch and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2003-02-07 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perhaps you've read about the Heart Attack Germ in Reader's Digest. Or you may have seen the story about it on Dateline NBC. But The Heart Attack Germ is the first and only book that reveals the full story behind this astonishing and revolutionary medical breakthrough. A germ named Chlamydia pneumoniae has been identified by medical researchers the world over as the Heart Attack Germ. People infected by this germ are at a significantly increased risk for stroke, heart attack and other cardiovascular problems, including the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease. Several other common bacteria and viruses have also been associated with an increased risk of stroke and heart attack. All of these germs are contagious and easily transmitted from person to person. In fact, the odds are that you've already been infected by one or more of the germs of cardiovascular disease. The discovery of the Heart Attack Germ has produced improved treatments that, for the first time, attack the underlying cause of cardiovascular trouble. Vividly written and illustrated, The Heart Attack Germ will show you how to dramatically reduce your risk of stroke, heart attack and the symptoms of Alzheimer's: safely, painlessly, inexpensively and without surgery.
Book Synopsis Chlamydia pneumoniae by : Herman Friedman
Download or read book Chlamydia pneumoniae written by Herman Friedman and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-01-27 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chlamydia pneumoniae is a bacteria that is most commonly known for causing colds and pneumonia. However, researchers have recently found a link between C. pneumoniae and atherosclerosis, a clogging of the arteries that causes heart attack and stroke. In addition, ongoing research is showing that certain strains may play a role in asthma, multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, and arthritis. This volume, part of the Infectious Agents and Pathogenesis series, is a complete portrait of C. pneumoniae and what is currently known about it.
Book Synopsis Chlamydia pneumoniae by : L. Allegra
Download or read book Chlamydia pneumoniae written by L. Allegra and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chlamydia pneumoniae is now recognized as an important human pathogen. Chlamydia pneumoniae is involved in 5%-15% of community acquired pneumonias, and recent data indicate its relevance in severe pneumonia and as a respiratory pathogen in immunocompromised subjects. A causal role for Chlamydia pneumoniae in the initiation, exacerbations and promotion of asthma has been suggested. Approximately 5% of chronic bronchitis exacerbations have been attributed to Chlamydia pneumoniae infections, and chronic infection may facilitate access of other pathogens to the lower respiratory tract. Another field of potential great social impact is the possible involvement of Chlamydia pneumoniae in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and related cardiovascular diseases. This book presents the current state-of-the-art knowledge on Chlamydia pneumoniae infection and highlights future lines of research.
Book Synopsis Chlamydia Pneumoniae Infection by : Luigi Allegra
Download or read book Chlamydia Pneumoniae Infection written by Luigi Allegra and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A flood of data indicate the importance and the relevance in both respiratory and extrapulmonary disease of Chlamydia pneumoniae infection today. Antibody prevalence rates in Western countries reach 50% in the adult population and remain high in old age suggesting a high rate of reinfection. Chlamydia pneumoniae can cause upper respiratory tract infections, like pharyngitis and sinusitis as well as bronchitis and more than 10% of community-acquired pneumonia. Recent data suggest a possible association of Chlamydia pneumoniae infection with wheezing and adult-onset asthma. However, the most intriguing hypothesis pertains the possible association between Chlamydia pneumoniae infection and atherosclerosis.

Book Synopsis Public Health and Infectious Diseases by : Jeffrey Griffiths
Download or read book Public Health and Infectious Diseases written by Jeffrey Griffiths and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2010-03-09 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emerging infectious diseases may be defined as diseases being caused by pathogens only recently recognized to exist. This group of diseases is important globally, and the experience of the last 30 years suggests that new emerging diseases are likely to bedevil us. As the global climate changes, so changes the environment, which can support not only the pathogens, but also their vectors of transmission. This expands the exposure and effects of infectious disease and, therefore, the importance of widespread understanding of the relationship between public health and infectious disease. Public Health and Infectious Diseases brings together chapters that explain reasons for the emergence of these infectious diseases. These include the ecological context of human interactions with other humans, with animals that may host human pathogens, and with a changing agricultural and industrial environment, increasing resistance to antimicrobials, the ubiquity of global travel, and international commerce. Features the latest discoveries related to influenza with a newly published article by Davidson Hamer and Jean van Seventer Provides a listing of rare diseases that have become resurgent or spread their geographic distribution and are re-emergent Highlights dengue and malaria, as well as agents such as West Nile and other arboviruses that have spread to new continents causing widespread concerns Includes discussions of climate influencing the spread of infectious disease and political and societal aspects

Download or read book Chlamydia written by Mihai Mares and published by IntechOpen. This book was released on 2012-03-30 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nowadays, Chlamydia still represents a redoubtable pathogen. Among its consequences, the blindness in children and severe impairment of reproductive health in adults are the most mutilating. Worldwide, it is estimated that six million of people suffer from post-trachoma blindness and almost 90 million become sexually infected each year. Due to its silent evolution and sexually transmission, the chlamydial infection can occur in anyone. The book “Chlamydia - A Multifaceted Pathogen” contains an updated review of all-important issues concerning the chlamydial infection. It comprises 18 chapters grouped in four major parts dealing with etiology and pathogenicity, clinical aspects, diagnosis and prevention. The new molecular data about the pathogenicity and the exhaustive presentation of clinical findings bring novelty to the book and improve our knowledge about Chlamydia induced diseases.
