This book was released on 2021-06-21 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thematic collection focuses on key parasites and their vectors in Southeast Asia. Up-to-date essays invite readers to discover parasite and vector morphology, genetic diversity as well as dynamic parasite communities linked to human land-use and climate change. The authors shed light on transmission pathways and explore tick-borne diseases, intestinal protozoa, cestodes, nematodes and the multiplicity of cryptic trematode species. Particular attention is given to mosquito vectors in changing environments and the dynamic biodiversity of vertebrate hosts, including mammals, birds and fish. The richly illustrated chapters are completed by new approaches in diagnostic methods, treatment and prevention to protect humans and animals from tropical parasite infections. Not only parasitologists and experts in tropical medicine but also public health officials and travelers will find this volume highly informative.

This book was released on 2021-11-17 with total page 687 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book summarizes the global progress in medical and scientific research toward converting traditionally chronic autoimmune diseases into a drug-free reversible illness using hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and other cellular therapies such as T regulatory cells (Treg), mesenchymal stromal/stem cells, and chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR T) cells in order to reintroduce sustained immune tolerance. This title provides information on different types of stem cells and immune cells; post-transplant immune regeneration; cellular regulatory requirements; ethical and economic considerations; and the advantages and disadvantages of HSCT in the treatment of a variety of autoimmune diseases versus current conventional treatments. Arranged by disease, the text provides a comprehensive guide to HSCT for all types of autoimmune/immune disorders including monogenetic autoimmune diseases; autoimmune aplastic anemia; neurologic immune diseases including multiple sclerosis, chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy, neuromyelitis optica, and stiff person syndrome; rheumatologic diseases such as systemic sclerosis and systemic lupus erythematosus; dermatologic diseases such as pemphigus; gastrointestinal disorders such as Crohn’s disease and celiac disease; and immune-mediated endocrinologic disease type I diabetes mellitus. Guidance is provided on the transplantation technique, cell collection and processing, conditioning regimens, infections, and early and late complications. Key Features Outlines therapies and techniques for HSCT for autoimmune diseases Discusses the advantages of HSCT over conventional therapies Reviews the entire process of stem cell therapy from harvest and ethics to indications, efficacy, and regulatory oversight

Download or read book Case based Medical Microbiology written by Tanmay Mehta and published by Q world. This book was released on 2024-02-13 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Case Based Medical Microbiology" authored by Dr. Tanmay Mehta is an innovative and comprehensive resource meticulously designed to demystify the intricate realm of medical microbiology. The book employs a unique pedagogical approach that enhances understanding and facilitates the recall of complex concepts. Each chapter commences with a carefully crafted case study, providing pertinent clues, emphasized in bold, that guide the reader towards the diagnosis. This is succeeded by a section detailing the most probable diagnosis derived from the case study. The subsequent section elucidates the causative agents, enumerated in the order of their frequency. A distinctive feature of this book is the representation of the pathogenesis of each disease in the form of a flowchart, rendering the process logical and memorable. The book further explores the clinical manifestations of each disease, outlining all common presentations. This is followed by a comprehensive list of investigations that are typically conducted in the given clinical scenario. The treatment segment is categorized into three sub-sections: supportive, empirical, and specific, thereby providing a holistic approach to disease management. Preventive strategies are also discussed, typically bifurcated into general measures and immunoprophylaxis, which includes vaccines and/or immunoglobulins. "Case Based Medical Microbiology" is an invaluable asset for those seeking to comprehend medical microbiology through a case-based format. Its simplistic, logical, and comprehensive approach renders it an indispensable tool for both learning and teaching.

Download or read book Climate Change and Human Health Scenarios written by Rais Akhtar and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2024-01-01 with total page 473 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of the present edited book is to encompass studies from both developed and developing countries of Asia, Africa Europe, and Americas, to understand and present a comparative scenario of the climate change and other environmental determinants of health and disease in geographically diversified countries. Environment and health perspective dates back to Hippocrates treatise written 400 B.C.E. In his book On Airs, Waters and Places, Hippocrates described diseases as associated with environmental conditions, “Whoever wishes to investigate medicine properly, should proceed thus: in the first place to consider the seasons of the year, and what effects each of them produces for they are not at all alike, but differ much from themselves in regard to their changes. Then the winds, the hot and the cold, especially such as are common to all countries, and then such as are peculiar to each locality. We must also consider the qualities of the waters, for as they differ from one another in taste and weight, so also do they differ much in their qualities. In the same manner, when one comes into a city to which he is a stranger, he ought to consider its situation, how it lies as to the winds and the rising of the sun; for its influence is not the same whether it lies to the north or the south, to the rising or to the setting sun”. There has been a greater emphasis in the last four decades on understanding environmental factors which affect human health, after United Nations established Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) in 1988 aimed at to evaluate research on changing environmental condition, particularly climate change and its impacts on human wellbeing, including human health, as consequences of extreme heat waves conditions, sea level rise, forced migration, air pollution, droughts, and wildfires. From these studies, risk levels of vulnerable populations and regions can be assessed and level of resilience of healthcare infrastructure that may be used in environmental health policy and equity of these countries.
