  • Language: en

Dengue Virus

Dengue is an endemic viral disease affecting human population in tropical and subtropical regions around the world, predominantly in urban and semi-urban areas. Dengue fever (DF) and its more serious forms, the dengue haemorrhagic fever (DHF) and dengue shock syndrome (DSS) are becoming important public health problems. The global prevalence of dengue has grown dramatically in recent decades. An estimated 2.5 billion people in more than 100 countries are at risk of acquiring dengue viral infection with more than 50 million new infections being projected annually, between 20,000 and 25,000 deaths, mainly in children. This book aims to review the possible molecular mechanisms that attribute to...

The Promise of Adolescence

The Promise of Adolescence

Adolescenceâ€"beginning with the onset of puberty and ending in the mid-20sâ€"is a critical period of development during which key areas of the brain mature and develop. These changes in brain structure, function, and connectivity mark adolescence as a period of opportunity to discover new vistas, to form relationships with peers and adults, and to explore one's developing identity. It is also a period of resilience that can ameliorate childhood setbacks and set the stage for a thriving trajectory over the life course. Because adolescents comprise nearly one-fourth of the entire U.S. population, the nation needs policies and practices that will better leverage these developmental opportunities to harness the promise of adolescenceâ€"rather than focusing myopically on containing its risks. This report examines the neurobiological and socio-behavioral science of adolescent development and outlines how this knowledge can be applied, both to promote adolescent well-being, resilience, and development, and to rectify structural barriers and inequalities in opportunity, enabling all adolescents to flourish.

Studies in Early Muslim Jurisprudence

Studies in Early Muslim Jurisprudence

This book offers a coherent theory of the origins and early development of Islamic law. The author grounds his argument in a series of representative passages from the earliest juristic works, many of them translated here for the first time. Succeeding chapters demonstrate the creativity of early Muslim civilization in literary forms, juristic norms, and hermeneutic technique. Drawing on the tradition of Islamic scholarship represented by such names as Ignaz Goldziher, Joseph Schacht, and John Wansborough, Calder is sensitive also to the development of methodology and technique in the parallel fields of Biblical and Rabbinical Studies. Grounding all his major generalizations in precise textual detail, he evokes the social, political and intellectual concerns of Muslim civilization in its most formative period. Calder demonstrates that many of the usual connotations are not appropriate to the understanding of early Muslim jurisprudence. The surviving texts constitute and lively record of how the early Muslim community created the major symbols of its own identity.

  • Publisher: Unknown

A comprehensive guide to the diagnosis, clinical management, epidemiological, surveillance, prevention and control of dengue and dengue haemorrhagic fever. Although guidelines and advice are universally relevant, the manual is specifically designed for use in South-East Asian countries, where dengue fever remains a major public health concern. Recommendations and advice respond to research demonstrating that different geographic areas show a variable response to infection, have different epidemiological patterns, and require different approaches to control. The book also responds to past failures to control dengue in these countries, citing almost exclusive concentration on space spraying of...

The Science of Adolescent Risk-Taking

Adolescence is a time when youth make decisions, both good and bad, that have consequences for the rest of their lives. Some of these decisions put them at risk of lifelong health problems, injury, or death. The Institute of Medicine held three public workshops between 2008 and 2009 to provide a venue for researchers, health care providers, and community leaders to discuss strategies to improve adolescent health.
