This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Carrier Problem in Infectious Diseases The Editors hope to issue in this series of International Medical Monographs contributions to the domain of the Medical Sciences on subjects of immediate interest, made by first-hand authorities who have been engaged in extending the confines of knowledge. Readers who seek to follow the rapid progress made in some new phase of investigation will find herein accurate information acquired from the consultation of the leading authorities of Europe and America, and illuminated by the researches and considered opinions of the authors. Amidst the press and rush of modern research, and the multitude of papers published in many tongues, it is necessary to find men of proved merit and ripe experience, who will winnow the wheat from the chaff, and give us the present knowledge of their own subjects in a duly balanced, concise, and accurate form. Drs. Ledingham and Arkwright in this volume deal with a subject of the greatest importance to public health. They have made an elaborate study of the doctrine that diseases, like typhoid fever, cerebrospinal fever, diphtheria, cholera, and dysentery, are propagated through the agency of human "carriers" - i.e., individuals outwardly healthy, or at most suffering from some trivial chronic complaint. The discovery of "carriers" has opened out a new department of hygiene, and the question of legislative control of such has become a matter of immediate practical importance. Up to date no such exhaustive treatise on the "carrier" problem as that of Drs. Ledingham and Arkwright has been published.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Carriers in Infectious Diseases: A Manual on the Importance, Pathology, Diagnosis and Treatment of Human Carriers; With a Section on Carriers in Veterinary Medicine In writing this book, the author has attempted to prepare a manual on that young but rapidly growing specialty in preventive medicine, which, for want of a better term, may be called carrier work. The subject has been treated as a part of general medicine and surgery, and the book is intended to be of practical value to medical students and physicians, especially those with public health responsibilities. The didactic or text book method of presentation has, therefore, been adopted, rather than the mono graphic. There are already two monographs on this subject in English: The Carrier Problem in the Infectious Diseases, by Ledingham and Arkwright, and Human Infection Carriers, by Simon. The writer's aim is not to compete with these valuable works, but to supplement them. No effort is made to develop the subject historically or bibliographically, except to emphasize certain points or to refer to recent summaries. The idea has been to g've a systematic exposition of current medical theory and practice as relates to carriers. Some idea of the amount of work, which has been and is being devoted to this subject, can be gath ered from the fact that there are in the catalogue of the Surgeon General's Library, on typhoid carriers alone, over three hundred references to recorded experiences. An effort has been made to collect, from these sources and from practical experience, the lessons that survive the test of time and trial and thus deserve a. Place in the program for the future. The writer has had personal experience with carrier problems from several different angles. On the theoretical side, anyone who in these days works intelligently for the health of groups, as well as of individuals, soon realizes that carriers as well as cases must be considered in any rational and radical program for the control of the infectious diseases. In attempting to study carriers, it was found that animal experimentation afforded a good method of approach, as human carriers are not always available when desired and clinical conditions often cannot be analyzed experimentally.

Book Synopsis Ethics and Drug Resistance: Collective Responsibility for Global Public Health by : Euzebiusz Jamrozik
Download or read book Ethics and Drug Resistance: Collective Responsibility for Global Public Health written by Euzebiusz Jamrozik and published by Springer. This book was released on 2021-08-21 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Open Access volume provides in-depth analysis of the wide range of ethical issues associated with drug-resistant infectious diseases. Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is widely recognized to be one of the greatest threats to global public health in coming decades; and it has thus become a major topic of discussion among leading bioethicists and scholars from related disciplines including economics, epidemiology, law, and political theory. Topics covered in this volume include responsible use of antimicrobials; control of multi-resistant hospital-acquired infections; privacy and data collection; antibiotic use in childhood and at the end of life; agricultural and veterinary sources of resistance; resistant HIV, tuberculosis, and malaria; mandatory treatment; and trade-offs between current and future generations. As the first book focused on ethical issues associated with drug resistance, it makes a timely contribution to debates regarding practice and policy that are of crucial importance to global public health in the 21st century.

Download or read book Contagion of Violence written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2013-03-06 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The past 25 years have seen a major paradigm shift in the field of violence prevention, from the assumption that violence is inevitable to the recognition that violence is preventable. Part of this shift has occurred in thinking about why violence occurs, and where intervention points might lie. In exploring the occurrence of violence, researchers have recognized the tendency for violent acts to cluster, to spread from place to place, and to mutate from one type to another. Furthermore, violent acts are often preceded or followed by other violent acts. In the field of public health, such a process has also been seen in the infectious disease model, in which an agent or vector initiates a specific biological pathway leading to symptoms of disease and infectivity. The agent transmits from individual to individual, and levels of the disease in the population above the baseline constitute an epidemic. Although violence does not have a readily observable biological agent as an initiator, it can follow similar epidemiological pathways. On April 30-May 1, 2012, the Institute of Medicine (IOM) Forum on Global Violence Prevention convened a workshop to explore the contagious nature of violence. Part of the Forum's mandate is to engage in multisectoral, multidirectional dialogue that explores crosscutting, evidence-based approaches to violence prevention, and the Forum has convened four workshops to this point exploring various elements of violence prevention. The workshops are designed to examine such approaches from multiple perspectives and at multiple levels of society. In particular, the workshop on the contagion of violence focused on exploring the epidemiology of the contagion, describing possible processes and mechanisms by which violence is transmitted, examining how contextual factors mitigate or exacerbate the issue. Contagion of Violence: Workshop Summary covers the major topics that arose during the 2-day workshop. It is organized by important elements of the infectious disease model so as to present the contagion of violence in a larger context and in a more compelling and comprehensive way.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Human Infection Carriers: Their Significance, Recognition and Management Analogous studies were then undertaken in connection with other infectious diseases, and it was soon found that cholera was not the only malady during the convalescence from which the corresponding organisms could persist in the body of the individual, and that perfectly healthy persons could become the carriers of various forms of pathogenic organisms without ever having shown symptoms of the corresponding disease. It was thus ascertained that convalescents from diphtheria may harbor the offending organisms much longer than the duration of the clinical illness, and represent a very serious menace to the community not only in themselves, but also through the large number of healthy carriers to which they may give rise. The same was then demonstrated for typhoid fever, and with the recognition of the role of the typhoid carrier came the realization that in the dissemination of enteric fever the infected human being is the only essential factor, in the absence of which the disease cannot continue to exist. Then followed the discovery that in the dissemi nation oi meningococcus meningitis also the human carrier plays a most important role; that here also the organism tends to persist after clinical recovery, and that normal human beings may harbor the organism in the upper respira tory tract and cause the infection of others without falling victims themselves to its pathogenic properties. Still more recently it has been shown that poliomyelitis and certain forms of streptococcus infection, as well as certain types of pneumococcus pneumonia, are disseminated in the same manner, and future investigations will no doubt show that still other infectious diseases are transmitted through the activity of carriers of the type that we are here considering.
