Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some people suffer from chronic, debilitating disorders for which no conventional treatment brings relief. Can marijuana ease their symptoms? Would it be breaking the law to turn to marijuana as a medication? There are few sources of objective, scientifically sound advice for people in this situation. Most books about marijuana and medicine attempt to promote the views of advocates or opponents. To fill the gap between these extremes, authors Alison Mack and Janet Joy have extracted critical findings from a recent Institute of Medicine study on this important issue, interpreting them for a general audience. Marijuana As Medicine? provides patientsâ€"as well as the people who care for themâ€"with a foundation for making decisions about their own health care. This empowering volume examines several key points, including: Whether marijuana can relieve a variety of symptoms, including pain, muscle spasticity, nausea, and appetite loss. The dangers of smoking marijuana, as well as the effects of its active chemical components on the immune system and on psychological health. The potential use of marijuana-based medications on symptoms of AIDS, cancer, multiple sclerosis, and several other specific disorders, in comparison with existing treatments. Marijuana As Medicine? introduces readers to the active compounds in marijuana. These include the principal ingredient in Marinol, a legal medication. The authors also discuss the prospects for developing other drugs derived from marijuana's active ingredients. In addition to providing an up-to-date review of the science behind the medical marijuana debate, Mack and Joy also answer common questions about the legal status of marijuana, explaining the conflict between state and federal law regarding its medical use. Intended primarily as an aid to patients and caregivers, this book objectively presents critical information so that it can be used to make responsible health care decisions. Marijuana As Medicine? will also be a valuable resource for policymakers, health care providers, patient counselors, medical faculty and studentsâ€"in short, anyone who wants to learn more about this important issue.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Glaucoma is a set of eye diseases that cause damage to the optic nerve and leads to a loss of vision. It is characterized by high intraocular pressure (IOP). Some types of glaucoma are open-angle glaucoma, normal-tension glaucoma and closed-angle glaucoma. It is caused by a variety of factors such as diet, genetics, ethnicity, etc. If untreated, it can result in blindness, which cannot be reversed. Its symptoms include blurred vision, redness of the eye, mid-dilated pupil, severe eye pain and nausea. The screening for glaucoma is performed by a standard eye examination or by techniques like tonometry, gonioscopy, scanning laser ophthalmoscopy, optical coherence tomography, etc. The mainstay of glaucoma treatment is lowering IOP through various pharmaceutical and surgical interventions. The objective of this book is to give a general view of the different causes, symptoms and treatment methodologies of glaucoma. From theories to research to practical applications, case studies related to all contemporary topics of relevance to this field have been included in this book. It will serve as a valuable source of reference for graduate and postgraduate students.

Book excerpt: This text provides a practical and expert problem-solving approach to the diagnosis and management of the glaucoma patient. The authors place emphasis on an approach to chronic, year-in, year-out care of the glaucoma patient - one of the most challenging management issues of the general ophthalmologists' practice. The first section of the book reviews the differential diagnosis of the patients who present with signs and symptoms suggestive of glaucoma, such as elevated pressure, abnormal optic nerve head, abnormal visual field and abnormal anterior chamber angle. The second section focuses on the chronic management of glaucoma. The authors describe the thought process/clinical decisions used to formulate and monitor treatment. In particular, they describe: how to determine the vigour with which to treat and monitor the individual patient; and how to determine if treatment is adequate and/or successful.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Preface Childhood is the topic of the ninth World Glaucoma Association Consensus. There has been only sparse attention to the diagnosis and treatment of childhood glaucoma. Both pediatric ophthalmologists and glaucoma specialists provide care for such children. In some instances, they manage these individuals alone and, in others, the management is shared. For this consensus, the participation of both groups was solicited. The global faculty, consisting of leading authorities on the clinical and scientific aspects of childhood glaucoma, met in Vancouver on July 16, 2013, just prior to the World Glaucoma Congress, to discuss the reports and refine the consensus statements. As with prior meetings, it was a daunting task to seek and obtain consensus on such a complicated and nuanced subject. It is unclear how each of us decides how we practice, and evidence to guide us often is sparse. It is remarkable how few high level studies have been conducted on the management of childhood glaucoma. Hence, this consensus, as with the others, is based not only on the published literature, but also on expert opinion. Although consensus does not replace and is not a surrogate for scientific investigation, it does provide considerable value, especially when the desired evidence is lacking. The goal of this consensus was to provide a foundation for diagnosing and treating childhood glaucoma and how it can be best done in clinical practice. Identification of those areas for which we have little evidence and, therefore, the need for additional research also was a high priority. We hope that this consensus report will serve as a benchmark of our understanding. However, this consensus report, as with each of the others, is intended to be just a beginning. It is expected that it will be revised and improved with the emergence of new evidence. Robert N. Weinreb, Chair
