Noninvasive Mechanical Ventilation
Noninvasive mechanical ventilation is an effective technique for the management of patients with acute or chronic respiratory failure. This comprehensive and up-to-date book explores all aspects of the subject. The opening sections are devoted to theory and equipment, with detailed attention to the use of full-face masks or helmets, the range of available ventilators, and patient-ventilator interactions. Clinical applications are then considered in depth in a series of chapters that address the use of noninvasive mechanical ventilation in chronic settings and in critical care, both within and outside of intensive care units. Due attention is also paid to weaning from conventional mechanical ventilation, potential complications, intraoperative applications, and staff training. The closing chapters examine uses of noninvasive mechanical ventilation in neonatal and pediatric care. This book, written by internationally recognized experts, will be an invaluable guide for both clinicians and researchers.
Assessment and Treatment of Sarcopenia and Frailty in the Setting of Personalized Internal Medicine
The recognition and implementation of personalized internal medicine is of the utmost importance for physicians, nurses, dieticians and other healthcare professionals engaged in clinics. The assessment of sarcopenia and frailty, in middle-aged patients, as an embodiment of treatment personalization, is essential in settings of acute and chronic disease, both in the hospital and in ambulatory settings. This book describes various practical tools for the assessment of sarcopenia and frailty, reviews relevant findings from the current professional literature, and suggests treatment modifications for frail patients.
The Lung in Autoimmune Diseases
The Lung in Autoimmune Diseases, Volume Seventeen identifies and describes the role of the lung in the most common systemic autoimmune diseases. From disease patterns, prognosis and risks to treatment, this book provides a comprehensive approach for the role of the lung in autoimmune diseases and the influence of autoimmune disease on the lung's functionality. In recent years, there is increasing knowledge in the field, including lung infection in early disease stages, mechanisms involved in lung damage, and new treatments. Recognition of lung involvement and implementation of some specific therapies is an important issue for clinicians dealing with systemic autoimmune diseases. - Provides a comprehensive review of the different patterns of pulmonary involvement in systemic autoimmune diseases - Describes new, targeted therapies for the treatment of systemic autoimmune diseases, including anti-fibrotics, biologics and vasodilators - Gives insights on the prognosis of patients suffering from systemic autoimmune diseases - Depicts better definitions of types of lung involvement in patients with an underlying systemic autoimmune disease
Cellular Senescence in Disease
Winner of the 2023 PROSE award in Biomedicine and Neuroscience! Research in the field of senescence has boomed recently due to the gradual realization that senescent cells are associated with a significant number of diseases. The genetic or pharmacological elimination of senescent cells can cause widespread benefits and improves outcomes for most of those diseases. Cellular Senescence in Diseases presents an updated review of the role of cellular senescence in multiple pathologies. Focus is given to those diseases where the implication of senescence has been more extensively documented, such as (cancer, lung and liver diseases, diabetes, Neurodegenerative diseases and others). The Editors re...
Immune-Mediated Lung Injury
A possible association between interstitial lung diseases and autoimmunity was first reported almost 40 years ago. Despite further reports linking immune deregulation and chronic lung injury, the role of autoimmunity had been severely underscored in the past mainly due to the disappointing results of immunosuppressive and immunomodulatory agents such as corticosteroids in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Most recently, the interest has been revived. Clinical observations fueled mechanistic discoveries on the role of immunity in lung injury and the identification of autoimmune phenomena as part of the fibrotic process. With this Research Topic, we, therefore, aim to improve knowledge for the association of immunity and interstitial lung diseases.
Systems Medicine
Why do we get certain diseases, whereas other diseases do not exist? In this book, Alon, one of the founders of systems biology, builds a foundation for systems medicine. Starting from basic laws, the book derives why physiological circuits are built the way they are. The circuits have fragilities that explain specific diseases and offer new strategies to treat them. By the end, the reader will be able to use simple and powerful mathematical models to describe physiological circuits. The book explores, in three parts, hormone circuits, immune circuits, and aging and age-related disease. It culminates in a periodic table of diseases. Alon writes in a style accessible to a broad range of readers - undergraduates, graduates, or researchers from computational or biological backgrounds. The level of math is friendly and the math can even be bypassed altogether. For instructors and readers who want to go deeper, the book includes dozens of exercises that have been rigorously tested in the classroom
Avances en sarcoidosis
La sarcoidosis es una enfermedad inflamatoria autoinmune que puede afectar a prácticamente cualquier órgano o sistema de nuestro cuerpo, por lo que se la considera como una enfermedad autoinmune sistémica. Se caracteriza por la formación de granulomas, principalmente en los pulmones, aunque puede afectar a cualquier otro órgano (piel, ojos, hígado, riñón, corazón, sistema nervioso, huesos y articulaciones, entre otros). Esta monografía ha sido coordinada por los doctores Pilar Brito-Zerón, Jacobo Sellarés, Roberto Pérez Álvarez, Lucio Pallarés y Manuel Ramos-Casals, y comprende diversas actualizaciones en aspectos de especial relevancia para abordar de un modo integral dicha e...

World Encyclopedia of Contemporary Theatre
The second volume of the World Encyclopedia of Contemporary Theatre covers the Americas, from Canada to Argentina, including the United States. Entries on twenty-six countries are preceded by specialist introductions on Theatre in Post-Colonial Latin America, Theatres of North America, Puppet Theatre, Theatre for Young Audiences, Music Theatre and Dance Theatre. The essays follow the series format, allowing for cross-referring across subjects, both within the volume and between volumes. Each country entry is written by specialists in the particular country and the volume has its own teams of regional editors, overseen by the main editorial team based at the University of York in Canada headed by Don Rubin. Each entry covers all aspects of theatre genres, practitioners, writers, critics and styles, with bibliographies, over 200 black & white photographs and a substantial index. This is a unique volume in its own right; in conjunction with the other volumes in this series it forms a reference resource of unparalleled value.
Congressional Record
The Congressional Record is the official record of the proceedings and debates of the United States Congress. It is published daily when Congress is in session.
