Salud global, sistemas sanitarios y respuesta a la pandemia COVID-19
En esta publicación podemos encontrar una interesante reflexión sobre la salud global como un campo de conocimiento. En la primera parte se plantean cuatro perspectivas analíticas, considerando aportes de las Ciencias sociales, la Economía y las Ciencias de la complejidad, al debate sobre la globalización y la salud colectiva durante la pandemia. En la segunda parte se presentan los análisis de las respuestas de seis sistemas de salud a los retos derivados de la aparición y diseminación mundial del SARS-CoV-2 desde diciembre de 2019, hasta mayo de 2020. El propósito fue comprender los procesos que constituyen esos sistemas sanitarios frente a la COVID-19 y a partir de allí, elaborar un análisis crítico de su desempeño.
Music, Race, and Nation
Long a favorite on dance floors in Latin America, the porro, cumbia, and vallenato styles that make up Colombia's música tropical are now enjoying international success. How did this music—which has its roots in a black, marginal region of the country—manage, from the 1940s onward, to become so popular in a nation that had prided itself on its white heritage? Peter Wade explores the history of música tropical, analyzing its rise in the context of the development of the broadcast media, rapid urbanization, and regional struggles for power. Using archival sources and oral histories, Wade shows how big band renditions of cumbia and porro in the 1940s and 1950s suggested both old traditions and new liberties, especially for women, speaking to a deeply rooted image of black music as sensuous. Recently, nostalgic, "whitened" versions of música tropical have gained popularity as part of government-sponsored multiculturalism. Wade's fresh look at the way music transforms and is transformed by ideologies of race, nation, sexuality, tradition, and modernity is the first book-length study of Colombian popular music.
Detection, Assessment, Diagnosis and Monitoring of Caries
The International Caries Detection and Assessment System (ICDAS) offers clinical criteria and codes, together with a framework to support and enable personalized comprehensive caries management for improved long-term health outcome. Based on the ICDAS, this publication provides an up-to-date synthesis of the fields of detection, assessment, diagnosis and monitoring of caries. The available evidence is reviewed, and a summary is given of the current international views on best practice of how the information collected can be collated and synthesized to inform the planning, delivery and clinical evaluation of patient-centred, comprehensive caries management. The book includes a unique glossary of key terms developed with a number of international groups and establishes new links between cariology in clinical practice, caries research, dental education and epidemiology, and dental public health. The book presents valuable information for practitioners and other dental health professionals with an interest in dental caries and its modern, evidence-based, clinical management as well as for all involved in the domains of dental public health, caries research or education.

Archaeological Human Remains
This volume addresses the directions that studies of archaeological human remains have taken in a number of different countries, where attitudes range from widespread support to prohibition. Overlooked in many previous publications, this diversity in attitudes is examined through a variety of lenses, including academic origins, national identities, supporting institutions, archaeological context and globalization. The volume situates this diversity of attitudes by examining past and current tendencies in studies of archaeologically-retrieved human remains across a range of geopolitical settings. In a context where methodological approaches have been increasingly standardized in recent decades, the volume poses the question if this standardization has led to a convergence in approaches to archaeological human remains or if significant differences remain between practitioners in different countries. The volume also explores the future trajectories of the study of skeletal remains in the different jurisdictions under scrutiny.
Implant Therapy
Since the publication of the first edition of this book 20 years ago, the landscape of implant dentistry has changed dramatically. Both the industry and patient demand have expanded exponentially, leaving the clinician with many decisions to make (and often as many questions to ask) regarding patient selection, surgical timing and techniques, implant types, and restorative approaches. This volume brings together the knowledge of the foremost leaders in implant dentistry, covering all aspects of the treatment process, from decision-making and treatment planning through imaging, surgical techniques, bone and soft tissue augmentation, multidisciplinary approaches, loading protocols, and finally strategies for preventing and treating complications and peri-implantitis as well as providing effective implant maintenance therapy. Filled with expert knowledge based on decades of research and clinical experience as well as abundant illustrations and clinical case presentations, this book is an indispensable resource for clinicians seeking to provide implant treatment at the highest standard of care.
The Metabolic Miracle
We all like to eat, but we are doing it wrong, and it gets worse every day. Deceived by the food industry, advertising, culinary fake news, and Aunt Bertha's nutrition advice, with every bite we are making nefarious decisions that steal our energy and make us both ill and fat. How can we stop this cycle? Who should we believe? How can we change our habits without becoming rigid and boring? In this book, renowned doctor Carlos Jaramillo offers robust answers to these questions and states that the key to optimal weight and health is our metabolism. Understanding what it is, how it operates, and what we can do to make it work in our favor is fundamental. And it is what the reader will accomplish on these pages.
Controversial Issues in Implant Dentistry
Dental implantology has seen a dramatic shift in the last decade for a variety of reasons including the incorporation of 3D tools for diagnosis and treatment planning, new implant surfaces and designs, bioactive materials, tissue engineering techniques, and minimally invasive surgical procedures. The combined effect of these innovations is a new paradigm of implant dentistry that is already changing the way clinicians treat edentulous patients and improving treatment options. Despite these advances within implantology, questions remain about many new techniques and developing technologies. This book focuses on the dynamic parts of this new paradigm that are still evolving-the controversial topics that are still subject to debate and that directly affect daily clinical practice. The author asks pressing questions and provides sound assessments.
Tilted Implants
"Methods for placing different types of tilted implants in different configurations (eg, All-on-4, V-II-V, transsinus, zygomatic) including step-by-step protocols from patient evaluation to surgery to provisional and definitive prosthesis fabrication, featuring dozens of detailed clinical cases"--
