Reversing Human Aging
A groundbreaking book about the medical advances that will definitively prevent aging. In a startling glimpse of our possible future, we see how we may live for two to three hundred years longer, how age-related diseases will be eradicated, and how the aging press will be prevented if not reversed. Illus.
AARP The Immortality Edge
AARP Digital Editions offer you practical tips, proven solutions, and expert guidance. Based on Nobel Prize–winning genetic research, AARP The Immortality Edge provides a simple plan to keep your telomeres healthy for better health and longevity. Telomeres play an important role in protecting our chromosomes from critical damage. The shortening of the telomere disrupts vital cellular function and promotes the previously seemingly inevitable onset of aging and various diseases, including cancer and Alzheimer's. Drawing from the groundbreaking discoveries about telomeres that won the 2009 Nobel Prize in Medicine, this book includes a highly prescriptive program that shows you how to live lon...
The Telomerase Revolution
Science is on the cusp of a revolutionary breakthrough. We now understand more about ageing - and how to prevent and reverse it - than ever before. In The Telomerase Revolution, Dr Michael Fossel, who has been at the cutting edge of ageing research for decades, describes how telomerase will soon be used as a powerful therapeutic tool, with the potential to intervene in age-related disease, dramatically extend life spans and even reverse human ageing. Telomerase-based treatments are already on offer, and have shown early promise, but much more potent treatments will become available over the next decade. This is the definitive work on the latest science of human ageing, covering both the theory and the clinical implications, taking readers to the forefront of one of the most remarkable advances in human medicine.
Electronic Health Records
The authors of this practical guide share the expertise they have gleaned from helping more than 100 hospitals transition from the world of paper to the world of information technology. They provide advice both for healthcare executives involved in implementing a new system and for those who wish to optimize their existing system. This book is a comprehensive reference for the design, implementation, and optimization of electronic health records (EHRs). The authors offer a detailed road map for avoiding common pitfalls during conversion and achieving higher-quality care after system implementation. A glossary of important terms and references to additional resources are also included in the book. Key topics covered include: Budgeting for the design and implementation of an EHR system Selecting and deploying new hardware and software Organizing your governance model for EHR implementation Training clinical staff on the new EHR system and procedures Ensuring compliance with HIPAA and other privacy measures Managing formularies, order sets, and documentation in the changing electronic world
The Telomerase Revolution
One of Wall Street Journal's "Best Books for Science Lovers" in 2015 Science is on the cusp of a revolutionary breakthrough. We now understand more about aging—and how to prevent and reverse it—than ever before. In recent years, our understanding of the nature of aging has grown exponentially, and dramatic life extension—even age reversal—has moved from science fiction to real possibility. Dr. Michael Fossel has been in the forefront of aging research for decades and is the author of the definitive textbook on human aging. In The Telomerase Revolution, he takes us on a detailed but highly accessible scientific journey, providing startling insights into the nature of human aging. Twen...
The Telomerase Revolution
We are at the beginning of a new scientific revolution. Dramatic life extension - even age reversal - has moved from science fiction to real possibility. The Telomerase Revolution reveals the latest research on human ageing and the enzyme telomerase which is starting to be used to slow the rate at which our cells - and we - age.
Critical Reviews of Oxidative Stress and Aging
This two-volume reference examines the translational research field of oxidative stress and ageing. It focuses on understanding the molecular basis of oxidative stress and its associated age-related diseases, with the goal of developing new methods for treating the human ageing processes.
The Promise of Immortality
Live, in good health, for as long as possible! Yes, you can! Every day, our life expectancy increases by six hours, thanks to the advances of medical science and our improving lifestyle. Can we do better? Can we go as far as Jeanne Calment, the oldest person to have ever lived, who reached 122 years of age? Yes, it is possible! Today we are able to make a human cell immortal; what we do not yet know is how to do this for all of our cells, in all of our tissues, all of our organs, and for all of our functions. The author of this book draws us into the magical landscape of our 60 trillion intelligent cells. He shows us how aging gradually insinuates itself into our DNA. More importantly, he shares with us the incredible promises of stem cells, telomerase, biotechnology, nanomedicine, and, finally, the critical impact of a healthy lifestyle.
Evolutionary Gerontology and Geriatrics
This book provides concrete scientific basis that we can conceive the possibility of modifying or even completely canceling aging process, despite the fact that aging is commonly regarded as the result of the overall effects of many uncontrollable degenerative phenomena. The authors illustrate in detail the mechanisms by which cells and the whole organism age. Actions by which it is possible, or will be possible within a limited time, to operate for modifying aging are also debated. The discussion is conducted within the frame and the concepts of evolutionary medicine, which is also indispensable for distinguishing between the manifestations of aging and: (i) diseases that worsen with age, a...
