Multidisciplinary Approaches To Covid-19, Livre de Lyon
This is the first comprehensive book on the new elastographic techniques discussing the early assessment of liver fibrosis. The book covers all aspects of measuring liver stiffness starting from the methodology, the molecular basis of liver stiffness elevation up to current clinical algorithms and interpretation. Future directions and novel implications that go beyond diagnosis but are relevant for understanding of liver cirrhosis per se are also discussed in detail. Liver Elastography, is an essential companion for hepatologists and gastroenterologists that provides an overview of its basic principles and gives a detailed account of how to use elastrography in clinical practice.
Globally, there are many safety concerns emanating from the consumption of food, and are categorized as physical, biological and chemical hazards. This volume explores a number of safety issues pertaining to foods consumed across the globe today. It represents a useful resource for researchers, food handlers and legislative bodies as it presents key findings in the area of food safety, and details the findings of a number of scientific research studies conducted through surveys, laboratory analysis and environmental assessments. The findings indicate the presence of eminent food safety threats along the food chain, ranging from pathogens, pesticide, and antibiotic residues, to heavy metals, food additives, aflatoxins, and allergens, among others. Food handling practices along the food chain and the importance of adhering to good agricultural and manufacturing practices are shown to play a crucial role in ensuring safe foods.
Apoptosis is the regulated form of cell death. It is a complex process defined by a set of characteristic morphological and biochemical features that involves the active participation of affected cells in a self-destruction cascade. This programmed cell death plays a critical role in physiological functions such as cell deletion during embryonic development, balancing cell number in continuously renewing tissues and immune system development. Additionally, a dysregulation of apoptosis is underlying in numerous pathological situations such as Parkinson, Alzheimer's disease and cancer.A number of studies have pointed out an association between consumption of fruits and vegetables, and certain beverages such as tea and wine, which are rich in polyphenols, with reduced risk of chronic diseases, including cancer. Apoptosis is also the regulatory mechanism involved in the removal of unnecessary cells during development and in tissue homeostasis in a wide range of organisms from insects to mammals. This book deals with cell apoptosis regulation and environmental factors.
This is a book that handles the non-alcoholic fatty liver disease from the bio-statistical point of view . The statistical method used is Continuous Time Markov Chains ( CTMCs) utilizing the MLE and quasi-Newton method to estimates the transition rate matrix , once obtained , the transition probability matrix can be estimated by exponentiation of this rate matrix. The transition probability matrix can also be obtained by solving forward Kolmogorov differential equations which yields more stable solution than the matrix exponentiation. The rate probability matrix can then be used to estimate the number of patients in each stage of the disease process as well as the life expectancy in each sta...
Fas Signaling is focused on the signaling mechanisms and biology of the prototypic death receptor Fas, also called CD95 or APO-1. The chapters of this book cover, besides the well recognized apoptosis-related functions of Fas, its emerging role as a proinflammatory cytokine and as an inducer of alternative forms of cell death. Fas Signaling aims to provide the reader with an up-to-date survey of the various aspects of Fas biology and the open questions of the field are addressed. This title is intended for Ph.D and post-doctoral students starting to work in the field, but is also useful for everyone with an interest in the biology of this exciting molecule.

Krankheiten der Verdauungsorgane sind Volkskrankheiten. Jährlich werden mehr als 2,5 Millionen Patienten mit Krankheiten der Verdauungsorgane im Krankenhaus behandelt. 61.000 Menschen sterben daran. Bis 2030 ist mit einer weiteren Zunahme um mehr als 20 % zu rechnen. Doch schon heute existieren durch die gastroenterologische Forschung wirksame Präventionsmaßnahmen gegen Krankheiten von Leber, Magen, Darm oder Speiseröhre und werden fortlaufend weiterentwickelt. Prävention ist entscheidend, wenn es darum geht, gastroenterologische Krankheiten aber auch Folgekrankheiten an anderen Organen zu vermeiden oder aufzuhalten. Um für die Zukunft zu erreichen, dass kein Mensch mehr an Krebs der V...
