Kelainan kongenital merupakan kelainan dalam pertumbuhan struktur bayi yang timbul sejak kehidupan hasiI konsepsi sel telur. Kelainan kongenital dapat merupakan sebab penting terjadinya abortus, lahir mati atau kematian segera setelah lahir. Kejadian bayi baru lahir dengan kelainan kongenital kurang lebih 15 per 1000 kelahiran. Kelainan kongenital pada bayi baru lahir merupakan penyebab kematian nomor tiga dari kematian bayi dibawah umur satu tahun (Ellyati et al., 2019). Kelainan bawaan/kongenital merupakan penyebab kematian tersering ketiga setelah prematuritas dan gizi buruk. Di negara maju, 30% dari seluruh penderita yang dirawat di rumah sakit anak terdiri dari penderita kelainan kongenital seperti: hidrosefalus, anencephalus, bibir/palatum sumbing, hipospadia, malformasi anorektal, hirschsprung, fimosis, dan akibat yang ditimbulkannya (Amani et al., 2021).
Expert treatment of the theory, concepts, correlations, and application of clinical laboratory science . . . Clinical Chemistry melds the basics of laboratory medicine in chemistry, physiology, and pathology with an emphasis on the concepts of clinical chemistry, the mechanisms of diseases, and the correlation of laboratory data. The scope of the text is broad, extending traditional boundaries to include immunology and endocrinology. It includes analytes, pathophysiology, methodology, clinical correlations/lab diagnosis, and concept applications, making the content widely applicable for discussions of special populations and assessments. Chapters illustrating laboratory safety, calculations, and resources; quality assurance; automation; and spectrophotometry will help students transition to the clinical laboratory work environment. The reader-friendly design provides an inclusive discussion of the principles of procedures, as well as parallels the curriculum published by the American Society of Clinical Laboratory Scientists. A wealth of pedagogical features, including chapter outlines, end-of-chapter reviews, and concept application, make this a complete core text.
Morphology of Blood Disorders, 2nd edition is an outstanding atlas with over 800 high-quality digital images, covering the whole spectrum of blood and bone marrow morphology, with particular emphasis on malignant haematology. Originally written in the Italian language by two world leaders in the field, the book has been expertly translated by the renowned haematologist and teacher, Barbara Bain. This book explores the major topics of haematological pathology, blending classical teaching with up-to-date WHO classification and terminology. Each image in this book is derived from material obtained for diagnostic purposes from patients with serious haematological conditions. Morphological details are supplemented by detailed descriptions of the output and role of automated instruments in disorders of the blood. Morphology of Blood Disorders, 2nd edition is an essential reference source for diagnosis in the haematology laboratory, designed to be the go-to guide for anyone with an interest in blood cell morphology.
Biological processes in any living organism are based on selective interactions be tween particular biomolecules. In most cases, these interactions involve and are driven by proteins, which are the main conductors of any life process within the organism. The physical nature of these interactions is still not well known. This book presents an entirely new approach to analysis of biomolecular in teractions, in particular protein-protein and protein-DNA interactions, based on the assumption that these interactions are electromagnetic in nature. This new ap proach is the basis of the Resonant Recognition Model (RRM), which was devel oped over the last 15 years. Certain periodicities within the d...
This book, edited by two leading experts in nanotoxicology with contributions from a global team of specialists, provides a comprehensive overview of the risks and environmental and health impacts assosciated with the toxicology of nanomaterials.
Despite technological advances in agriculture, nearly a billion people around the world still suffer from hunger and poor nutrition while a billion are overweight or obese. This imbalance highlights the need not only to focus on food production but also to implement successful food policies. In this new textbook intended to be used with the three volumes of Case Studies in Food Policy for Developing Countries (also from Cornell), the 2001 World Food Prize laureate Per Pinstrup-Andersen and his colleague Derrill D. Watson II analyze international food policies and discuss how such policies can and must address the many complex challenges that lie ahead in view of continued poverty, globalization, climate change, food price volatility, natural resource degradation, demographic and dietary transitions, and increasing interests in local and organic food production. Food Policy for Developing Countries offers a "social entrepreneurship" approach to food policy analysis. Calling on a wide variety of disciplines including economics, nutrition, sociology, anthropology, environmental science, medicine, and geography, the authors show how all elements in the food system function together.
The 31th volume of the "Journal of Biomimetics, Biomaterials and Biomedical Engineering" includes papers which describe the results of scientific researches of nature objects for biomimetic approach in engineering design, some applied aspects of the biomechanics of human and utilization of modern biomaterials and also of modern techniques of investigations and treatment in the biomedical practice. We hope that this volume will be useful for many researchers and engineers from different branches of biomedicine and engineering sciences.
This Food Policy Report presents research results that quantify the climate-change impacts mentioned above, assesses the consequences for food security, and estimates the investments that would offset the negative consequences for human well-being.
A growing number of governments, donor agencies, and development organizations are committed to supporting nutrition-sensitive agriculture (NSA) to achieve their development goals. Although consensus exists on pathways through which agriculture may influence nutrition-related outcomes, empirical evidence on agriculture’s contribution to nutrition and how it can be enhanced is still weak. This paper reviews recent empirical evidence (since 2014), including findings from impact evaluations of a variety of NSA programs using experimental designs as well as observational studies that document linkages between agriculture, women’s empowerment, and nutrition. It summarizes existing knowledge regarding not only impacts but also pathways, mechanisms, and contextual factors that affect where and how agriculture may improve nutrition outcomes. The paper concludes with reflections on implications for agricultural programs, policies, and investments, and highlights future research priorities.
