Thoracic Surgery
This book provides a guide to the anatomy and the surgical techniques required in thoracic and cardiothoracic surgery. It discusses the advantages and disadvantages of certain surgical procedures in relation to the lymphatic system, thyroid gland, chest wall and parathyroid glands, as well as pulmonary endarterectomy. Further, it addresses intraoperative and postoperative complications, and explores newer fields like microthymectomy, microlobectomy, and pain management for thoracic surgery patients. Providing an update on the latest advances in thoracic surgery, it appeals to general, thoracic, cardiothoracic, and cardiovascular surgeons. It also offers trainees insights into the foundation of the techniques and the relevant anatomy.
New Insights on Pulmonary Hypertension
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a diverse group of diseases that elevates pulmonary artery pressure. Globally, PH prevalence is approximately 1%. Pulmonary arterial hypertension incidence is 6 per million patients with a prevalence of 49–55 per million. This book dives into historical facts related to PH, clinical features, treatment, and specialized issues associated with PH. This book is a resource for health professionals such as nurses, medical students, allied health professionals, primary care physicians, pulmonary clinicians, and clinicians caring for patients with pulmonary hypertension.
Color Atlas of Emergency Trauma
This full-color atlas presents over 1200 images from one of the largest trauma centers in North America. Photos, x-rays and illustrations depicting a variety of common and rare traumatic injuries are accompanied by recommendations and advice from a multidisciplinary group of experienced trauma care providers.
E-Learning in Europe - Learning Europe
This book contains contributions about the past, present and future of e-learning in twelve European countries. The papers are written by experts about their respective countries, together with one paper that deals with the subject from a transnational perspective. The main question treated and answered in this book is how digital media has contributed to Higher Education Development in different national contexts. Beyond a mere description of the situation in different countries, the socio-technical approach adopted in this book also offers the opportunity to make comparisons and thus fosters understanding between experts from different disciplines and cultures. This book takes stock of a decade of digital media in Higher Education in Europe by presenting a first comparative approach and encouraging discussion by adopting a relativist rather than a generalist approach. Readers are thus stimulated to envisage how e-learning might have developed in their own work and learning context and to shape how it may do so.
Norms and the Law
This book contains perspectives of world-renowned scholars from the fields of law, economics, and political science about the relationship between law and norms. The authors take different approaches by using a wide variety of perspectives from law, legal history, neoclassical economics, new institutional economics, game theory, political science, cognitive science, and philosophy. The essays examine the relationship between norms and the law in four different contexts. Part One consists of essays that use the perspectives of cognitive science and behavioral economics to analyze norms that influence the law. In Part Two, the authors use three different types of common property to examine cooperative norms. Part Three contains essays that deal with the constraints imposed by norms on the judiciary. Finally, Part Four examines the influence formal law has on norms.
Techniques for Disaster Risk Management and Mitigation
A comprehensive guide to managing and mitigating natural disasters Recent years have seen a surge in the number, frequency, and severity of natural disasters, with further increases expected as the climate continues to change. However, advanced computational and geospatial technologies have enabled the development of sophisticated early warning systems and techniques to predict, manage, and mitigate disasters.Techniques for Disaster Risk Management and Mitigation explores different approaches to forecasting disasters and provides guidance on mitigation and adaptation strategies. Volume highlights include: Review of current and emerging technologies for disaster prediction Different approaches to risk management and mitigation Strategies for implementing disaster plans and infrastructure improvements Guidance on integrating artificial intelligence with GIS and earth observation data Examination of the regional and global impacts of disasters under climate variability
Handbook of Research on Modernization and Accountability in Public Sector Management
"This book disseminates methodologies that would allow public institutions to implement practices, consistent with values of ethics, rigor, transparency and accountability to promote accountable public sector managers and discusses the processes of control and risk management and stress their importance for the reliability of financial reporting"--
Excited States Of Transition Elements - Proceedings Of The 2nd International School
This book presents the recent advances in spectroscopy and theoretical modeling relevant to the interpretation of luminescence and laser phenomena in solid state materials. The available solid state matrices in crystalline and glassy states and the full range of activaters-transition metal ions, rare earth ions and actinides are considered here. Processes of activator excitation, energy transfer between activators and relaxation of excited states are particularly stressed.
Diets, Foods and Food Components Effect on Dyslipidemia
Dyslipidemia, and particularly hypercholesterolemia, remains a main cardiovascular disease risk factor, partly reversible with the improvement of life-style, including dietary, habits. Even when a pharmacological treatment is begun, dietary support to lipid-lowering is always desired. This book will provide a selection of new evidence on the possible lipid-lowering effects of some dietary and medicinal plant components, reporting some interesting reviews, experimental data and results from clinical trials. The book is adapted for experts in nutrition but also for all scientists involved in cardiovascular disease prevention.
