This latest edition enhances the material of the first edition with a derivation of the value of the action for each of the Harrington–Shepard calorons/anticalorons that are relevant for the emergence of the thermal ground state. Also included are discussions of the caloron center versus its periphery, the role of the thermal ground state in U(1) wave propagation, photonic particle–wave duality, and calculational intricacies and book-keeping related to one-loop scattering of massless modes in the deconfining phase of an SU(2) Yang–Mills theory. Moreover, a derivation of the temperature–redshift relation of the CMB in deconfining SU(2) Yang–Mills thermodynamics and its application t...

In diesem Fallbuch werden die Grundlagen der Therapie oropharyngealer und ösophagealer Dysphagien aus interdisziplinärer Sicht dargestellt. Die behandelten Störungsbilder und Grunderkrankungen, wie Schlaganfall, extrapyramidal-motorische und neuromuskuläre Erkrankungen, Kopf-Hals-Tumoren, COPD, Achalasie oder stiller Reflux, bilden dabei das weite Spektrum der klinischen Dysphagiologie ab. Berücksichtigt werden zudem verschiedene Altersklassen (Pädiatrie und Geriatrie) sowie klinische Besonderheiten und Techniken, z.B. Trachealkanülenmanagement oder pharyngeale Elektrostimulation (PES). Insgesamt 90 Abbildungen sowie Videomaterial, welches z.B. die Darstellung therapeutischer Techniken in der FEES beinhaltet, veranschaulichen dabei das konkrete Vorgehen. Aufgrund der einzigartigen Kombination von Theorie und Praxis eignet sich dieses Buch besonders für klinisch tätige Ärzte und Therapeuten, aber auch für Studierende der Medizin, Sprachtherapie und Gesundheitswissenschaften.
This first-of-its-kind work on elder abuse and mistreatment provides a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the subject. Covering almost all regions of the world, it highlights different dimensions of elder abuse and mistreatment in terms of their prevalence, incidence, prevention, treatment, management and response from governments and civil society, academic and research communities, and society in general. Written by international specialists from various disciplinary and presenting the latest findings and data, the handbook includes sections on the Americas; the Caribbean; Europe; Central, West and South Asia; East Asia and Asia-Pacific; and Africa. The chapters offer clarity on the concept and forms of elder abuse and neglect, discuss research methodology, and provide policy options, legislative solutions and programmatic responses to give relief to older people as victims of abuse and neglect as well as to deal with the perpetrators. This book is intended for a wide range of students and researchers interested in aging, from sociology, to social work, community medicine, public health, clinical psychology, and human rights/law.
