Oeil et Maladies systémiques
Les maladies systémiques regroupent un cadre hétérogène de maladies (connectivites, vascularites, granulomatoses…) dont la pathogénie est caractérisée par une atteinte de plusieurs organes. Bien qu’il s’agisse pour la plupart de maladies orphelines, ces pathologies sont susceptibles d’intéresser tous les médecins du fait de leur polymorphisme clinique. L’atteinte ophtalmologique est fréquente dans bon nombre de ces maladies, principalement en rapport avec une atteinte inflammatoire ou vasculaire. Elle constitue souvent une clé pour le diagnostic et peut mettre en jeu le pronostic fonctionnel en raison du risque de cécité. La sémiologie oculaire des maladies systémiqu...
Sarcoidosis
Recent reports indicate that the prevalence of sarcoidosis is rising and mortality in chronic sarcoidosis patients is increasing. With myriad clinical manifestations, and multi-system involvement, there is a need for all clinicians to have a working knowledge of the condition. This Monograph provides a comprehensive overview of the most recent advances in sarcoidosis. Opening with chapters on history, epidemiology and pathobiology, it goes on to provide in-depth coverage of: specific organ manifestations and general diagnostic pathways; traditional as well as innovative treatment strategies; and, importantly, patient quality-of-life assessment. This book will be useful to clinicians around the world.
Inflammation (volume 4 - coffret rétine)
L?inflammation de la rétine est le plus souvent en rapport avec les uvéites et représente l?atteinte la plus sévère de ce groupe de maladies hétérogènes et complexes, responsables de 10 à 15 % des cécités. Ce volume détaille différentes sortes d?inflammations ou d?infections. Le chapitre des rétinites traite, d?une part, des rétinites infectieuses et, d?autre part, des atteintes rétiniennes consécutives à une inflammation choroïdienne ou vasculaire inflammatoire ou autoimmune. L?évocation première des rétinites ou choriorétinites infectieuses ne tient pas au fait de leur fréquence, mais à l?absolue nécessité d?en rechercher l?éventuelle implication avant de pouvoi...
Emerging Infectious Uveitis
This book reviews the various emerging infectious diseases that show a significant association with uveitis, describing and explaining their ocular manifestations with the aid of color illustrations. In addition, it presents brief reports of further emerging infections that are associated with uveitis in rare cases. The coverage is wide ranging, encompassing diverse emerging bacterial, viral, parasitic and fungal infections. Individual chapters are also devoted to important re-emergent diseases such as syphilis and tuberculosis, with the focus on new data on epidemiology, diagnosis and management. Emerging infectious diseases are defined as “those whose incidence in humans has increased within the past two decades or threatens to increase in the near future”. Emergence may be due to the spread of a new agent, to the recognition of an infection that has been present in the population but has gone undetected, or to the realization that an established disease has an infectious origin. This book will be an invaluable source of information on all aspects of uveitis in these diseases.
Optical Coherence Tomography
Because of its many advantages optical coherence tomography (OCT) has revolutionized the way in which retinal diseases are screened and managed and how treatments are monitored. In this volume the latest developments and findings are presented by experts in their respective fields. After a short introduction covering the available equipment and the basic techniques, the imaging features of various pathological findings in retinal diseases are presented. The topics cover the outer layers including new modalities for choroid imaging, out-layer diseases such as the various types of macular degeneration, retinal diseases such as diabetic retinopathy and vascular occlusion, and retina and vitreou...
Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a steadily progressive and ultimately fatal disease of unknown origin. Recent years have seen advances in our understanding of IPF and a number of guidelines have been published. But many questions remain unanswered, particularly surrounding probable versus definite IPF. This Monograph aims to discuss the latest achievements in IPF, and covers key diagnostic issues, staging of the disease, complications and comorbidities, treatment, unmet patient needs and perspectives for the future. This book will be of interest to all clinicians and researchers in this area.
Controversies in COPD
Edited by Antonio Anzueto, Yvonne Heijdra and John R. Hurst COPD is one of the most common diseases worldwide and is projected to be the third leading cause of death by 2020. But that does not mean it is easy to understand or manage. In everyday practice, pulmonologists face areas of controversy in COPD, for which evidence-based medicine is often unavailable. This ERS Monograph considers where the current controversies in COPD lie, discussing areas such as screening, premature birth, asthma–COPD overlap syndrome, treatment, rehabilitation and palliative care. This book will be of great interest to both clinicians and scientists, and aims to stimulate further discussion about this diverse and fascinating disease. "...contains a vast amount of information on the disease, its prevalence, signs and symptoms, diagnositc tests and treatment options. The book's format makes it quick and simple to find out what you need to know, and its size would make it easy to take to work for use in practice [...] invaluable for anyone working with patients with the disease." Emma Vincent, Nursing Standard
Orphan Lung Diseases
This book has been replaced by "Rare Diseases of the Respiratory System", ISBN 978-1-84984-167-2 A respiratory physician is only likely to see a few orphan lung diseases each year or even during their career. However, it is essential that specialists are able identify, confirm and diagnosis orphan lung disease in a patient. This Monograph comprehensively covers the most common and/or complex orphan lung diseases. It should be seen as a solid companion to the respiratory specialist each time they need to consider a diagnosis of an orphan disease.
Magnetism and Superconductivity
This up-to-date work presents a modern vision of magnetism and superconductivity covering both microscopic and phenomenological aspects. The basic information is illustrated with the help of current research topics such as the quantum Hall effect or mesoscopic aspects of superconductivity.
