Psoriatic and Reactive Arthritis

This new companion to Hochberg et al.'s Rheumatology masterwork focuses on the momentous recent advances in our understanding of the genetics and immunology of psoriatic and reactive arthritis, and their implications for diagnosis and management. Leading international authorities explore new concepts in genetic and pathogenic mechanisms and early diagnosis; provide comprehensive, well-illustrated coverage of clinical features; evaluate the very latest therapeutic options, including biologics; and discuss clinical outcome measures. Examines the very latest pathogenic mechanisms and diagnostic criteria, providing the necessary tools for early diagnosis and monitoring of disease progression. Offers comprehensive coverage of the clinical manifestations of psoriatic and reactive arthritis, including a 'mini atlas' of color plates.Examines the pros and cons of the available therapeutic options, including the very latest biological as well as traditional therapies.Includes practical discussions of clinical outcome measures, delivering ongoing tools for assessment of function, disease activity, and quality of life.

Osteoimmunology

It has only recently been appreciated that the immune and skeletal systems have major interactions. It is now well documented that osteoclasts, which are important cellular mediators of skeletal homeostasis, are derived from hematopoietic precursors that also give rise to immune cells. In addition, numerous cytokines that were first shown to regulate immune cell function have also been demonstrated to regulate bone cells and influence skeletal health. Conversely, products of bone cells appear critical for the engraftment of marrow in bone, the normal development of the hematopoietic and immune systems and provide niche for long-term memory B and T cells. In the past scientists involved in im...

Psoriatic Arthritis, An Issue of Rheumatic Disease Clinics 41-4

Some people with psoriasis can also develop psoriatic arthritis, when the immune system attacks the joints as well, causing inflammation. Like psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis symptoms flare and subside, vary from person to person, and even change locations in the same person over time. Psoriatic arthritis can affect any joint in the body, and it may affect just one joint, several joints or multiple joints. For example, it may affect one or both knees. This issue will include articles on Genetic and Epigenetic aspects of psoriatic arthritis, Clinical features and diagnostic considerations in psoriatic arthritis, Natural history, prognosis and socioeconomic aspects of psoriatic arthritis, Etiology and pathogenesis of psoriasis and many more!

Primary Care for Women

Thoroughly revised and updated for its Second Edition, this comprehensive, practical reference is an essential resource for obstetrician-gynecologists who are increasingly responsible for primary care and need information on the diagnosis and management of non-gynecologic disorders. It offers all primary care practitioners invaluable guidance on the wide variety of problems unique to women. The book includes chapters on age-specific issues to care for female patients at each stage of life and disease-oriented chapters covering all disorders seen by primary care physicians. Disease-oriented chapters include etiology, differential diagnosis, history, physical examination, laboratory and imaging studies, treatment, and special considerations during pregnancy.

Scleroderma, An Issue of Rheumatic Disease Clinics

Scleroderma, or systemic sclerosis, is a chronic connective tissue disease generally classified as one of the autoimmune rheumatic diseases. Hardening of the skin is one of the most visible manifestations of the disease. It's estimated that about 300,000 Americans have scleroderma. About one third of those people have the systemic form of scleroderma. Since scleroderma presents with symptoms similar to other autoimmune diseases, diagnosis is difficult. This issue will cover: The Genetic Basis of SSc: Genetics, Epigenetics, Mechanisms of Pathogenesis - linking fibrosis, vasculopathy and immune dysregulation, The Role of Autoantibodies in Diagnosis and Prognosis/survival; Managing Raynaud's phenomenon and ischemic ulcers, managing SSc Lung Disease, Monitoring for and Managing Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension, and many more!
