A primary concern of rare disease diagnosis is the lack of accurate information that may lead to delayed interventions, administering inaccurate treatments, and social consequences. Health communication continues to be one-way and rely on the expertise from the health practitioner. In such a broad spectrum of rare diseases, patients may find it difficult to obtain timely information, accurate diagnosis, and appropriate treatments, surgeries, medications, or psychological counseling in their own countries. The use of information and communication technologies can create new communication channels that address this lack of knowledge. Communicating Rare Diseases and Disorders in the Digital Age...

The study of pediatric and adolescent medicine is an essential part of medicine as children react to diseases differently than adults. As new viruses continue to emerge, and as procedures are updated and revised, there is a need for comprehensive resources on the new developments and emerging technologies in this field. As medical technologies and innovative practices spread in recent years, it is vital that medical professionals are knowledgeable on the developments in the pediatric field as well. The Research Anthology on Pediatric and Adolescent Medicine presents the developments, emerging technologies, and challenges in pediatric and adolescent medicine. It also explains adolescent health management and promotion as well as recent discoveries on childhood development. Covering topics such as media consumption, neuro-developmental disorders, and health promotion, this book is a critical resource for pediatricians, nurses, medical professionals, hospital administration, behavioral scientists, therapists, psychiatrists, medical students, researchers, and academicians.

The Self on the Move

  • Publisher: IAP

This volume attempts to delineate the construction of the self in institutional settings of the contemporary world, with the topics ranging from young children to adults and from the micro level to the macro level of human development. The chapters focus on the activities or practices that characterize institutional settings, stressing their dialogical nature that enables understanding human development and the self as what emerge from the dialectic tension of these events—that is, conflicts or contradictions. Discussions included in this volume are different from the principal ways of evaluating institutions in the modern world—i.e., quantitative reports of achievements or merits—but strongly promote further dialogue among researchers and practitioners. This volume offers a new perspective to anyone who are interested in how we psychologically and socially develop in contemporary society, including teachers or practitioners who actually work with children and youths.

What Should We Know About Prevented, Diagnostic, and Interventional Therapy in Coronary Artery Disease

The mortality from ischemic heart disease has decreased in recent years. The better understanding of risk factors associated with development of coronary artery disease has significantly contributed to this decline. Improvements in medical and interventional therapy have reduced the complications associated with acute myocardial infarction as well as revascularization. After the introduction of imaging modalities, the noninvasive characterization of regional function, perfusion and metabolism allowed for more sophisticated tissue characterization to identify reversible dysfunction with high diagnostic and prognostic accuracy. We now can legitimately claim that computed tomography angiography...
