Nutritional Therapy along the Continuum of Care
At the 2022 ESPEN conference, the International Declaration on the Human Right to Nutritional Care was presented, stating the ethical obligation to ensure optimal nutritional care. Still, in our aging populations, patients often present with a range of chronic conditions that, in combination with poor lifestyle choices and other factors such as polypharmacy, affect their nutritional status. Often hidden behind adipose tissue, their muscle mass is decreased, and intakes of essential nutrients are low, while inflammatory levels are chronically increased.
Dietary Components and Immune Function
Dietary Components and Immune Function focuses on immune modulation, immune mediated disease resistance, immune changes due to AIDS, immune modulated cancer therapy, and autoimmune diseases as modified by dietary supplement, bioactive foods and supplements. The potential value of such approaches in maintaining wellness and preventing disease are addressed by examining their effects in vitro and in vivo on innate and adaptive immune responses. Emerging fields of science and important discoveries relating to early stages of new nutriceuticals in cancer prevention, prior to clinical trials are also covered. This volume represents a single source of material related to nutriceuticals and their constituents as they relate to cancer therapy and prevention. As such the book will be essential reading for nutritionists, pharmacologists, health care professionals, research scientists, cancer workers, pathologists, molecular or cellular biochemists, physicians, general practitioners as well as those interested in diet and nutrition in disease resistance via immune regulation.
Fiscal Policy, Taxation and the Financial System in an Increasingly Integrated Europe
The papers collected in this volume are those presented at the sixteenth Colloquium arranged by the Societe Universitaire Europeenne de Re cherches Financieres (SUERF), which took place in Lisbon in May 1991. The Society is supported by a large number of central banks and commer cial banks, by other financial and business institutions, and by personal subscriptions from academics and others interested in monetary and financial problems. Since its establishment in 1963, it has developed as a forum for the exchange of information, research results and ideas among academics and practitioners in these fields, including central bank officials and civil servants responsible for formulating and app...

The Importance of Immunonutrition
A pediatric perspective Our daily food intake not only provides the calories and the macro- and micronutrients necessary for survival - nutrients also have a tremendous potential to modulate the actions of the immune system, a fact which has a significant impact on public health and clinical practice. This book presents the latest findings on how nutrient status can modulate immunity and improve health conditions in pediatric patients. Divided into three parts, it covers major aspects of the interplay between nutrients and the regulation of immunity and inflammatory processes. Part one deals with the pharmaceutical value of specific amino acids (arginine and glutamine) and hormones for addressing immune disorders and infant development. The second part revolves around gut function and immunity, and the right balance of probiotics. The final part explores the role of lipid mediators and how their types and proportions can tip the balance in favor of health and disease.
Intestinal Immunology and Food Allergy
This volume reviews recent findings on gastrointestinal immunity and food hypersensitivity and explores various strategies for preventing and treating food allergies. The book provides clinicians with a thorough understanding of the mechanisms and manifestations of food allergies, the predictive factors for food allergy, the tests available for diagnosing food hypersensitivity, the methods by which tolerance can be induced, and the role of special maternal diets and infant formulas in preventing food allergies.
Reflections on the Just
At the time of his death in 2005, French philosopher Paul Ricoeur was regarded as one of the great thinkers of his generation. In more than half a century of writing about the essential questions of human life, Ricoeur’s thought encompassed a vast range of wisdom and experience, and he made landmark contributions that would go on to influence later scholars in such areas as phenomenology, hermeneutics, structuralism, and theology. Toward the end of his life, Ricoeur began to focus directly on ethical questions that he feared had been overshadowed by his other work; the result was a two-volume collection of essays on justice and the law. The University of Chicago Press published the English...
