This invaluable work comprehensively covers all issues of drug regimen compliance. In three sections--Clinical Trials, Patient Management, and Future Aspects--it deals with a topic of debate and interest.
An essential, comprehensive, and practical guide to understanding, measuring, and modifying patients’ adherence behavior to optimize treatment outcomes, this book covers all major aspects of adherence in dermatology. The first section describes current knowledge on the magnitude and impact of nonadherence; the second outlines measuring adherence in the context of databases, trials and practice. The third section addresses adherence in key skin diseases and the fourth covers numerous strategies to improve adherence by mitigating specific patient barriers. All sections emphasize ways to optimize communication with patients: the foundation for producing successful health behavior change. Low ...
The long awaited second edition of Principles and Practice of Pharmaceutical Medicine provides an invaluable guide to all areas of drug development and medical aspects of marketing. The title has been extensively revised and expanded to include the latest regulatory and scientific developments. New chapters include: European Regulations Ethics of Pharmaceutical Medicine Licensing and Due Diligence Pharmacogenomics Encompassing the entire spectrum of pharmaceutical medicine, it is the most up-to-date international guide currently available. Review of the first edition: “This book was a joy to read and a joy to review. All pharmaceutical physicians should have a copy on their bookshelves, all pharmaceutical companies should have copies in their libraries.” —BRITISH ASSOCIATION OF PHARMACEUTICAL PHYSICIANS
Drug Regimen Compliance Issues in Clinical Trials and Patient Management Edited by Jean-Michel Metry Aardex Ltd., Zug, Switzerland and Urs A. Meyer University of Basel, Switzerland A patient's non-compliance with drug regimens can render drugs ineffective. This not only causes problems for the patient but also large costs for health services. Despite a renewed interest in the subject over the past few years, there is still a dearth of new ideas and perspectives. This volume is written in response to this lack, and seeks to: Address key topics, such as regulatory issues and the role of complian.
This volume constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Curves and Surfaces, held in Paris, France, in June 2014. The conference had the overall theme: "Representation and Approximation of Curves and Surfaces and Applications". The 32 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 39 submissions. The scope of the conference was on following topics: approximation theory, computer-aided geometric design, computer graphics and visualization, computational geometry and topology, geometry processing, image and signal processing, interpolation and smoothing, mesh generation, finite elements and splines, scattered data processing and learning theory, sparse and high-dimensional approximation, subdivision, wavelets and multi-resolution method.
This book provides a comprehensive discussion of the issues related to risk, volatility, value and risk management. It includes a selection of the best papers presented at the Fourth International Finance Conference 2007, qualified by Professor James Heckman, the 2000 Nobel Prize Laureate in Economics, as a “high level” one.

With its inclusion of new concepts and recent literature, academics and risk managers will want to read this book.
This book provides the theoretical background required for modelling photonic crystals and their optical properties, while presenting the large variety of devices where photonic crystals have found application. As such, it aims at building bridges between optics, electromagnetism and solid state physics. This second edition includes the most recent developments of two-dimensional photonic crystal devices, as well as some of the last results reported on metamaterials.
