Covers basic principles and recent advances in diagnosis and management of pulmonary conditions, including pregnancy, aviation travel and climate change.
Book includes the basic principles of Pulmonology as well as the recent advances in allied clinical sciences relevant to pulmonology. Includes valuable inputs on tuberculosis, other pulmonary infections, environmental and occupational medicine, sleep disorders and general systemic diseases affecting the respiratory system. Although, critical care is relevant for most of the medical and surgical specialties, the pulmonologist have a more vested interest than other specialists. Assisted respiration which forms the core of most critical care lies in the primary domain of pulmonologists.
The second volume of the Biomedical translational research discusses advancements in biomedical research for understanding the pathophysiology of various diseases towards improving diagnosis and treatment. It presents the integration of molecular-based technologies, clinical genomics, and medical informatics to improve diagnostic and treatment strategies. Further, the book reviews molecular genomics approaches for diagnosis and managing tuberculosis. It also covers the innovative strategies for cancer treatment through targeting metabolic pathways, tumor microenvironment, cancer stem cells, and immune cells. It also illuminates novel strategies for heart failure diagnosis and therapeutic approaches for the treatment of heart failure. It discusses improvements in translational research for discovery of new diagnostic tests, identifying novel biomarkers and drugable targets, and predicting optimal treatments based on understanding the underlying molecular basis of the disease. Lastly, it reviews the preclinical models of restenosis and their application and limitation in the evaluation of device-based interventional technologies for the treatment of coronary artery diseases.

The reliance on oxygen therapy has enhanced and indications expanded. Some of the broad areas in which the progress has been specially noticeable include the long-term use of domiciliary oxygen, the hyperbaric oxygen therapy and the alternate oxygen carriers. There are also several advancements in oxygen delivery devices and the related equipments. The understanding of the side effects and the toxicity of oxygen has also increased. This revised edition includes all the recent advances and some of the new scientific developments as well as update the information on other subjects. This book provides short but concise information on different aspects of oxygen meant as a therapeutic agent. It lays the scientific foundations on oxygen therapy, primarily for the clinicians. It also lays stress on a rational and well regulated use of oxygen as a core drug than a mere add on tonic.
Part of the Clinical Focus series, this book is a comprehensive guide to the diagnosis and treatment of tuberculosis. The new volume is highly illustrated with tables and images and written by an internationally recognised editor and author team.
