Kirsner's Inflammatory Bowel Diseases
This comprehensive New Edition describes all of the latest scientific and clinical advances in the field of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). A new editorial team-joined by a superb group of international authorities-examine every aspect of IBD-including etiology and pathogenesis, diagnosis and evaluation, medical and surgical therapy, and more. A wealth of expanded coverage, additional international contributors, extensive updating throughout, and numerous diagnostic and therapeutic algorithms make this an essential resource. Emphasizes evidence-based medicine in the section on medical therapy. Features a detailed description of inflammatory and immunologic pathways, allowing the reader to ...
Gut and the Liver
This book, the proceedings of Falk Symposium 100, `Gut and the Liver', held in Freiburg, Germany, 29-31 May 1997, comprehensively reviews the physiological and pathophysiological interactions between the intestine and the liver as well as between intestinal and hepatic diseases. Apart from the basic aspects of the intestinal microflora and the immune system of the gut, gastrointestinal permeability and translocation as well as the contribution of the intestine and the intestinal bacteria to the metabolism of bile acids, amino acids and drugs are discussed. In addition, experimental as well as clinical data demonstrating the significance of gut-derived bacterial toxins for the development of liver diseases and the effect of liver diseases on gastrointestinal functions are discussed. The major aim of this book, therefore, is to highlight the interactions between gut and liver at the molecular level as well as in clinical disease.
IBD at the End of Its First Century
Although the first description of patients with what we now call Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis was published well before 1900, both disorders seem to be diseases of the twentieth century. At the very start of the twenty-first century, it therefore seems appropriate to look back and at the same time look forward and to assess what knowledge has been gained during the last 100 years and in what direction research and thereby clinical practice will go in the future. This book, the proceedings of Falk Symposium No. 111 held in Freiburg, Germany, on June 19-20 1999, contains contributions from experienced senior scientists on the state of the art in pathophysiology, diagnosis and treatment, together with unpublished and new findings from young researchers. Basic scientists and clinicians are thereby involved in an exchange of information which will lead to new directions for future research and clinical management of inflammatory bowel diseases.
Systemic Manifestations of IBD
Proceedings of the Falk Symposium 98 (Part 2 of the Intestinal Week in the Black Forest 1997) held in Titisee, Germany, May 25-26, 1997.
Sartor Resartus
This edition is the first to present the text as it originally appeared, indicating the changes Carlyle made to later editions. Appendices contain Carlyle's own extensive commentaries on his work. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.
Gastroenterology: Yesterday - Today - Tomorrow: A Review and Preview
On the occasion of the 80th birthday of Dr. Dr. Herbert Falk an international symposium was held in Freiburg, Germany, on 16–17 October 2004. The aim of the meeting was to look back, to assess progress made and to look forward speculating on the development of the field of gastroenterology and hepatology. The symposium was divided into four parts: oesophagus and stomach, liver, pancreaticobiliary tract, and small/large bowel. Internationally renowned speakers contributed to the symposium, many of them also contributed to this book. The organizers of the symposium hope that this volume will maintain the memory of a remarkable meeting in honour of an even more remarkable person.
Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Inflammatory Bowel Disease: From Bench to Bedside is a detailed and comprehensive story of the local and systemic pathophysiology of intestinal inflammation including management strategies. Research advances and current concepts of etiopathogenesis in the context of what is already known of the clinicopathologic features of these disorders is explored. This volume blends recent advances in the basic and clinical sciences as they relate to inflammatory bowel disease and emphasizes the effectiveness of a team approach of basic scientists and clinician investigators in this field.
Surface Structures of Microorganisms and Their Interactions with the Mammalian Host
Surface Structures of Microorganisms and Their Interactions with the Mammalian Host Edited by E. Schrinner, M. H. Richmond, G. Seibert, U. Schwarz This book discusses the interactions that occur between the surface layers of microorganisms and the mammalian "host". Particular emphasis is placed on the field of microbial infection and pathogenicity, whereby yeasts, fungi and protozoa are considered in addition to bacteria. Other topics treated include bacterial endotoxins and cell wall degradation products. The twenty contributions to this book were written by a wide range of specialists from different countries. They offer an international and interdisciplinary compilation of current knowledge in this field.
The Autoimmune Diseases
Since publication of the Third Edition in 1998, the understanding of the immune mechanisms underlying autoimmunity and autoimmune disease has significantly deepened and broadened. This Fourth Edition incorporates new material and combines common themes underlying inductive and effector mechanisms and therapies that relate generally to the autoimmune disorders. It discusses the biological basis of disease at genetic, molecular, cellular, and epidemiologic levels. New to This Edition:* Tissue-specific interventions to arrest or "cure" autoimmune disease* Bone marrow eradication and replacement* Both basic science and clinical medicine is covered* Boxed points to emphasize key features of each chapter
Essentials of Mucosal Immunology
Essentials of Mucosal Immunology presents basic concepts as well as new and exciting advances in mucosal immunology and inflammation, the development of mucosal vaccines, and the role of the immune system in mucosal disease. Specific chapters highlight novel approaches to the treatment of autoimmune disease, including the use of oral tolerance; approaches to and vectors for new vaccines; and current concepts in mucosal inflammation and its role in inflammatory bowel disease and ulcer disease. Contains the most current research on mucosal immunology and is comprehensive in scope Includes ideal coverage of both the basic and clinical aspects of the mucosal immune system Provides an understanding of the mucosal immune system with regard to new treatments and preventative methods, including vaccine development Includes contributions from an international team of experts
