Penyalahgunaan narkotika, psikotropika, dan zat adiktif (NAPZA) semakin meningkat dan tahun ke tahun. Hal ini diperparah dengan penemuan dan penggunaan NAPZA jenis baru yang peredarannya meluas hingga pelosok negeri. Undang-Undang No 35 tahun 2009 tentang Narkotika dan Peraturan Menteri Kesehatan No. 9 Tahun 2022 Tentang Perubahan Penggolongan Narkotika menjadi salah satu bukti bahwa Pemerintah melalui regulasinya berusaha melindungi rakyatnya dari ancaman penyalahgunaan NAPZA. Usaha lain tentunya berasal dari masyarakat yang harus mampu mendeteksi dan melaporkan jika mengetahui adanya penyalahgunaan NAPZA di lingkungan mereka. Buku ini ditulis oleh pakar kesehatan berbagal bidang spesialisa...
Albeit a very common symptom in dermatology, internal medicine, psychosomatics, neurology, and even oncology, itching was under-researched up until 15 years ago. Since then, the clinical aspects of acute and chronic itch have been examined extensively. As a result, some books on the topic have become available. Whereas most publications focus on experimental aspects and diagnostics, this volume of the series 'Current Problems in Dermatology' provides a comprehensive overview regarding the management of chronic itch. Select authors consider interdisciplinary aspects as well as age, body region, and specific diseases as they present a great variety of available treatments. All physicians with patients suffering from itch – especially dermatologists, general practitioners, gerontologists, nephrologists, hepatologists, neurologists, and palliative care doctors – will find this publication to be an essential source of information.
Stem Cell Biology in Health and Disease presents an up-to-date overview about the dual role of stem cells in health and disease. The Editors have drawn together an international team of experts providing chapters which, in this fully-illustrated volume, discuss: - the controversial debate on the great expectations concerning stem cell based regeneration therapies raised by the pluripotency of various stem cells. - the advantages and concerns about embryonic stem cells (ES cells), induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS cells) and adult stem cells, such as bone marrow-derived stem cells (BMDCs). - the type of stem cells, which has become of interest in the past decade, namely so-called cancer stem cells (CSCs). CSCs are now in the focus of cancer research since the eradication of tumour initiating cells would raise the changes of definitely cure cancer. Professor Dittmar and Professor Zänker have edited a must-read book for researchers and professionals working in the field of regenerative medicine and/or cancer.
