Clinical Cases in Primary Immunodeficiency Diseases
Primary immunodeficiency diseases (PIDs) are a heterogeneous group of inherited disorders characterized by different defects in the development and function of the immune system. This book aims to increase the clinical awareness and knowledge of practicing clinicians regarding the diagnosis and management of PIDs. In order to achieve this goal, about 90 cases drawn from real life are presented, along with approximately 300 related questions. The selected case reports are the result of the invaluable cooperation of more than 40 scientists in the field of immunodeficiency. They focus both on the presenting features of patients with PIDs and on the required further investigation and management. Each of the numbered cases is followed by the questions, their answers, and additional discussion. Each question focuses on a particular aspect of the PID under consideration, and the topics covered include clinical diagnosis, laboratory findings, molecular mechanisms, and therapy.
Immunoglobulin Therapy in the 21st Century: The Dark Side of the Moon
In the early decades since the introduction in the early '80s of immunoglobulin therapy many studies tried to identify which clinical indications might benefit from the therapy, which treatment’s schedules are effective and safe. It is universally accepted that immunoglobulin therapy is a life-saving treatment in patients with PID. The rise of new indications for further different clinical conditions resulted in a steady increase in demand for immunoglobulins. Currently the consumption of immunoglobulin for PID represents a small fraction of the market. In the recent past we have been observing: 1) An increase in the demand for plasma and in the consequent need to increase the number of do...

Current Therapy in Allergy, Immunology, and Rheumatology
This new edition includes the latest findings in allergy, immunology and rheumatology. World class contributors offer their expertise on how treatment can be modified at different stages of disease as well as how complications can be anticipated, prevented and treated.
Antigen Presentation
Antigen presentation is central to the immune response, and is instrumental in ensuring that the response mounted is that best suited to the eradication of the particular microbe faced. In this volume, experts in the field provide state-of-the-art descriptions of the antigen presentation pathways. How do viruses disrupt these critical pathways, and to what effect? Do all tissues present antigen in the same way? If not, why? What are the consequences of dysfunctional antigen presentation, seen in certain genetic disorders? This book considers not only the molecular details, but also their relevance to the whole organism.
Intravenous Immunoglobulins in Clinical Practice
Recognizing the explosive growth in information on intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIGs), this exhaustive single-source volume surveys all available literature on the employment of IVIG preparations in clinical practice from pharmacoeconomics and pharmacokinetics to prophylaxis and management of infectious and autoimmune diseases.
