Digestive System

The book focuses on the recent advances in the digestive system. It is composed of 3 sections: gastrointestinal duct, liver, and biliary system. There are 9 chapters: peptic ulcers; mid-gastrointestinal bleeding; gastrointestinal manifestations of IgA vasculitis; biomechanics of intestinal contractions; evaluation of serum sodium change after terlipressin in cirrhosis; history and background of biliary system; gallbladder carcinoma; ERCP for cholecysto-choledocholithiasis; and cystic artery variations and associated vascular complications in laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The knowledge presented in this book should be valuable for family physicians, internists, gastroenterologists, hepatologists, endoscopists, radiologists, and pathologists who are interested in digestive diseases to guide the clinical practice and management. This book should be also useful for patients and their relatives to better understand the digestive system.

Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease

Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) with a prevalence of 20-30% worldwide is characterized by the buildup of fat in the liver (liver steatosis) with no or little alcohol consumption. Its principal causes are modern diet and occidental lifestyle. It is characterized by metabolic disturbances such as insulin resistance, inflammation, and oxidative stress, considered as the hepatic manifestation of metabolic syndrome. There is no effective drug therapy for this disease; therefore, lifestyle interventions remain as the first-line treatment. Nevertheless, the adherence rates to this type of treatment are very low, so great efforts are focused at finding novel therapeutic agents for the prevention of hepatic steatosis and its progression. This book presents a systematic and comprehensive revision about NAFLD, highlighting its epidemiological and molecular aspects, as well as its prevention and treatment.

Advances in Intelligent Systems and Interactive Applications

This edited book is based on the research papers presented at the 4th International Conference on Intelligent, Interactive Systems and Applications (IISA2019), held on June 28–30, 2019 in Bangkok, Thailand. Interactive intelligent systems (IIS) are systems that interact with human beings, media or virtual agents in intelligent computing environments. This book explores how novel interactive systems can intelligently address various challenges and also limitations previously encountered by human beings using different machine learning algorithms, and analyzes recent trends. The book includes contributions from diverse areas of IIS, here categorized into seven sections, namely i) Intelligent Systems; ii) Autonomous Systems; iii) Pattern Recognition and Computer Vision; iv) E-Enabled Systems; v) Internet & Cloud Computing; vi) Mobile & Wireless Communication; and vii) Various Applications. It not only presents theoretical knowledge on the intelligent and interactive systems but also discusses various applications pertaining to different domains.

With the immense amount of data that is now available online, security concerns have been an issue from the start, and have grown as new technologies are increasingly integrated in data collection, storage, and transmission. Online cyber threats, cyber terrorism, hacking, and other cybercrimes have begun to take advantage of this information that can be easily accessed if not properly handled. New privacy and security measures have been developed to address this cause for concern and have become an essential area of research within the past few years and into the foreseeable future. The ways in which data is secured and privatized should be discussed in terms of the technologies being used, ...
