This book gathers international knowledge and contemporary clinical and scientific evidence on infections associated with the musculoskeletal system at a time when we are confronted with significant challenges and uncertainty. A key focus of the book is enhancing and advancing future discovery in the detection, prevention and treatment of musculoskeletal infection. This is an ideal book for physicians, surgeons, research scientists, university students, as well as medical and allied health students.
Obesity is a global pandemic rising beyond the status of a lifestyle disorder, and its consequences include impaired metabolism, energy disruption, and abdominal fat deposition and storage. Body Recomposition: A Comprehensive and Metabolic Alternative to Weight Loss presents information on body recomposition, which emphasizes the approach of losing fat while gaining muscle. It contains vast research on topics including factors that influence fat accumulation, strategies for weight management, healthy diet and eating patterns, physical exercise, and lifestyle strategies in healthy weight management. Features: Influence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) on stored fat accumulation an...

Ein Großteil unserer Kinder ist krank. Sie leiden unter Allergien, Asthma, Bauch- und Kopfschmerzen. Sie sind übergewichtig, haben Diabetes oder eine Fettleber. Die Zähne von bis zu 30% unseres Nachwuchses bröckeln schon im Kindesalter und gesunde Augen haben immer weniger. Eine erschreckende Häufung von Verhaltensauffälligkeiten verhindert an vielen Schulen normal ablaufenden Unterricht. WARUM? Die Antwort ist einfach und doch sehr komplex: Die Versorgung von Nahrungsmitteln und Konsumgütern wird von globalen Konzernen gesteuert. Profite und nicht Gesundheit stehen im Vordergrund. Kitas und Schulen werden als Vertriebsnetz für gesundheitsschädigende Produkte genutzt. Die Rahmenbedingungen für diese dramatische Entwicklung haben die Ministerien für Gesundheit, Landwirtschaft und Ernährung geschaffen. Systematisch versorgen sie die Bevölkerung mit irreführenden Anweisungen, falschen Informationen und gesundheitsschädigenden Gesetzgebungen. Die Leidtragenden sind insbesondere unsere Kinder.
Covering all state-of-the-art experimental research methods in orthopedic surgery and trauma From bioinformatics to nanotechnology, advances in basic research ultimately drive advances in clinical care. This book provides a comprehensive summary of all current research methodologies for translational and pre-clinical studies in biomechanics and orthopedic trauma surgery. With this "roadmap" at hand, specialists and trainees will have the tools to conduct high-quality experimental research in any area of musculoskeletal science, with a solid understanding of how the findings can be applied in patient care. Special Features: Utilizes the principles and methodology of modern, evidence-based med...
O livro Biofilme Oral e as interações na odontologia surge da necessidade de compilar conhecimento produzido na disciplina das Ciências Biológicas Articuladas na área de Clínica Odontológica no curso de pós-graduação da Faculdade de Odontologia da Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais. Nos últimos anos a disciplina visava aprofundar nos conceitos da produção e fisiopatologia dos biofilmes orais e os efeitos nos tecidos orais, sendo objeto de outras publicações. Atualmente a disciplina visa analisar os biofilmes em consonância com a compreensão de uma odontologia moderna como uma ciência ampla e integrada com o sistema estomatognático e suas implicações com corpo humano e a saúde em geral. Ainda foram levantadas reflexões de como as ciências básicas, avanços tecnológicos e inovação que podem contribuir para ajudar no bem-estar e recomo para a sociedade.

Perfect for… Understanding diseases and disorders Increasing test scores in class Improving scores on the NCLEX® examination ? Rely on over 200 full-color flash cards for the most critical clinical information about common diseases and disorders. Color-coded by body system, these handy cards familiarize students with the great deal of pathophysiologic information they must master. Color-coded, body-system organization. Supplemental categories on dermatologic conditions, mental health, and women’s health. Card front—the name of the condition • pronunciation • a clue to its meaning or significance • and the icon representing the associated body system. Card back—description of the pathophysiology • assessment and diagnostic findings • complications • and the medical and surgical treatments. Memory aids on every card, including “Keep in Mind, “Make the Connection,” and “Remember.” Charts, tables, and photographs throughout. Comprehensive, alphabetical index.
The mechanical properties of whole bones, bone tissue, and the bone-implant interfaces are as important as their morphological and structural aspects. Mechanical Testing of Bone and the Bone-Implant Interface helps you assess these properties by explaining how to do mechanical testing of bone and the bone-implant interface for bone-related research
Here for the first time in one book is a comprehensive and systematic approach to the dynamic modeling and control of biped locomotion robots. A survey is included of various approaches to the control of biped robots, and a new approach to the control of biped systems based on a complete dynamic model is presented in detail. The stability of complete biped system is presented for the first time as a highly nonlinear dynamic system. Also included is new software for the synthesis of a dynamically stable walk for arbitrary biped systems, presented here for the first time. A survey of various realizations of biped systems and numerous numerical examples are given. The reader is given a deep insight into the entire area of biped locomotion. The book covers all relevant approaches to the subject and gives the most complete account to date of dynamic modeling, control and realizations of biped systems.
