Infectious Diseases: A Clinical Approach
Most textbooks on infectious diseases take a disease-specific and/or organ-specific approach. In this book a patient-centred approach is taken. The starting point is the patient’s presenting problem and its evolution. The focus is on clinical diagnosis and principles of management. The book comprises six parts. Part I, ‘General approach to infectious diseases’, establishes the patient-centred approach. Part II outlines presenting problems and syndromes, and Part III, infections of organ systems. These two sections highlight day-to-day problems faced by clinicians, differential diagnoses and management. Part IV covers specific infections, chosen for their importance or unique nature, an...
The Alchemist's Fortune
Jack’s eventful summer in the quaint storybook town of Saint Galdramour isn’t over yet. While the grimalkins are busy defending their kingdom from the ever encroaching blight, Jack uncovers a lost treasure; the famed fortune of the renowned medieval alchemist Galdramour, and with it a formula said to turn things to gold. The right to this fortune immediately comes into question as interested parties from both the town of Saint Galdramour and the neighbouring town of Saint Gilbert stake their claim. Now Jack must delve into his family’s history to try to prove he has the rightful claim. Meanwhile in Grimperloft, Grand Duke Soxington has arrived with promises of support and aid. But what...

Chronicity Enquiries: Making Sense of Chronic Illness
This volume was first published by Inter-Disciplinary Press in 2013. Chronic illness, together with people experiencing or treating it, became almost mute to predominant biomedical narration pervasive in mainstream media, education, medical and pharmaceutical industry. Contributors in this book aim to represent, discuss, and preserve the vanishing voices and stories on chronic illness from dimensions beyond medicine so that we may make sense of chronicity with the diversity it deserves. The book also incorporates research articles which share important stories about chronicity. These stories, same as chronic illness in our world, should not be treated in a ‘standardised’ way. Each reader, we hope, will relate the meanings of chronicity in this book to his or her own world.
High-Density Lipoproteins
This book meets the long-awaited need for a comprehensive overview of the biological role of HDLs. Edited by one of the pioneers in HDL and cholesterol research, this monograph summarizes current knowledge on HDL turnover, regulation and physiology. Clearly structured, the various sections cover HDL structure, formation, secretion and removal, as well as plasma metabolic factors. The biological activities and clinical aspects are equally discussed, as is the impact of HDL on common diseases and their prevention.
Antiviral Chemotherapy 5
Scientists and clinicians attending the last "New Directions in Antiviral Therapy" conference in late 1994 could hardly have predicted the revolution in the management of patients with HIV infection that has occurred since. Two new classes of antiretrovirals have been licensed, the second-site RT inhibitors and the protease inhibitors; the long in cubation period of active HIV infection, when the infection is clinically latent, is now un derstood to be a period of intense viral replication and turnover of CD4 lymphocytes; measurements of HI V RNA concentration in plasma have been shown to be essential tools for monitoring the course of HIV infection, deciding when to treat, and assessing the...
World AIDS Day 2022: Putting ourselves to the test: achieving equity to end HIV
Since HIV was first identified in the early 1980s, we have had numerous scientific advancements to improve HIV prevention and treatment. However, there are still 38 million people currently living with HIV, and a proportion of them have developed Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS). The main issue with HIV and AIDs is inequalities: the communities affected are disproportionately distributed among the Global South. World AIDS Day takes place every year on the 1st of December and was founded in 1988 — making it the first global health day to be established. This year, the theme of World AIDS Day is equality. Tackling the inequalities surrounding HIV testing, prevention, care, and stigma among marginalized populations is the only way to not fall behind the targets of the third sustainable development goal of ending the HIV/AIDS epidemic by 2030.
