Immune Modulation and Anti-Inflammatory Therapy in Ocular Disorders
These guidelines, compiled by a panel of clinicians and scientists with a high level of expertise, aim to provide readers with the most up-to-date and comprehensive instructions on the treatment and prevention of ocular inflammation. All of the recommendations are explicitly linked to supporting evidence and graded according to the strength of that evidence and the editors have made every effort to ensure that chapters are of a consistently high methodological quality. The guidelines for each treatment include dose and the frequency and mode of delivery. Significant side-effects of treatment are identified and distinguished from those of the disease in question. Suggestions are presented for the prevention both of the disease itself and of the treatment-related complications. In addition, likely future directions in treatment and prevention are identified. These guidelines will be of great practical value for all clinicians and clinical scientists with an interest in the subject.
Intraocular Inflammation

Individual sections are devoted to uveitis associated with systemic disorders, uveitis syndromes restricted to the eye, bacterial uveitis, viral uveitis, fungal uveitis, parasitic uveitis, uveitis caused by other microbes, traumatic uveitis, and masquerade syndromes. Chapters on the different forms of uveitis are in a homogeneous reader-friendly format, with identification of core messages, explanation of etiology and pathogenesis, up-to-date information on diagnostics and differential diagnosis and guidance on the most appropriate forms of treatment and prognosis. Helpful flow charts are included to assist in identification of potential underlying disorders and the reader will also have online access to one hundred informative case reports demonstrating the different courses of intraocular inflammation. The authors are world experts keen to share their vast experience with the reader.

Uveitis Today
Hardbound. The volume contains the papers from the 4th International Symposium on Uveitis (ISU)held in Yokohama, Japan. The spirited discussions showed how astounding the progress in the field of uveitis has been in the past several years. The ISU explored many aspects of the broad fields of uveitis and ocular immunology. Although there is no clarity in the mechanism and pathophysiology of uveitis, many research findings were reported by a number of disciplines ranging from clinical findings to molecular biology. This book contains scientific information that can be useful asa reference to those interested in uveitis and ocular immunology. Furthermore, it can be utilized as a solid foundation for future work in the field.
Entzündliche Augenerkrankungen
Für eine entzündliche Augenerkrankung gibt es eine Vielzahl von Ursachen.Sie kann infektiös oder nichtinfektiös bedingt sein. Es kann sich um eine anteriore, eine intermediäre oder eine posteriore Uveitis handeln. Ursache kann auch eine Systemerkrankung oder eine paraneoplastische Erkrankung sein. Einige Formen sind so schwer, dass sie unbehandelt zur Erblindung des Patienten führen können. Selbst für erfahrene Ophthalmologen ist es zum Teil schwierig, immer die richtige Diagnose zu stellen und infolgedessen auch richtig zu therapieren. Hier setzt die "Entzündliche Augenerkrankungen" mit Herrn Professor Pleyer an der Spitze an. Namhafte Autoren vermitteln ihr Expertenwissen über Pathophysiologie, Diagnostik, Differentialdiagnostik und Therapie. Ein Buch, das auf die praktischen Bedürfnisse der in Praxis oder Klinik tätigen Ophthalmologen ausgerichtet ist.
Was ist Gesundheit?
Obwohl Gesundheit für alle Menschen essentiell ist, unterliegt das Verständnis des Begriffs »Gesundheit« jeweils historisch, regional und kulturell unterschiedlichen Einflüssen. Mit verschiedenen Festlegungen von »Gesundheit und Krankheit« werden auch die Aufgaben der Medizin unterschiedlich definiert. Dieser Band ist dem Thema »Verständnis(se) von Gesundheit« gewidmet, einem der Kernthemen der interdisziplinären Arbeitsgruppe der Berlin-Brandenburgischen Akademie der Wissenschaften »Zukunft der Medizin: Gesundheit für alle«. Es wird u.a. der Frage nachgegangen, wie die Medizin Krankheiten nicht nur immer besser therapieren kann, sondern wie sie außerdem besser imstande sein k...
Water-filtered Infrared A (wIRA) Irradiation
Water-filtered infrared A irradiation (wIRA) is a special application of infrared A irradiation. Its preferential induction of thermal, but also nonthermal, effects which have a high tissue penetration and low heat load to the skin surface makes wIRA a promising therapeutic method. Since its introduction in 1989, wIRA has been applied experimentally and clinically to human and animal patients to treat and improve an impressive variety of disease entities. This book summarizes recent developments by presenting a wide range of up-to-date clinical applications and offers an excellent overview on the topic, which will be of relevance to readers from clinical disciplines and basic researchers alike. The book is organized into two main fields: "Principles" and "Clinical Practice". "Clinical Practice" is the most substantial field being divided into parts on application of wIRA in oncology, psychiatry, neonatology, dermatology, rheumatology, and infectiology. "Principles" summarizes the historic development of wIRA, focusing on the physical basics, body's reaction to hyperthermia, thermography, and thermometry, and recommends clear terminology when applying wIRA.
Tumors of the Eye and Ocular Adnexa
When a specimen representing a tumour or tumour-like lesion of the eye or ocular adnexa is received in most general surgical pathology laboratories, the immediate reaction is one of panic, because these tumours are rarely encountered and often require complex gross dissections based on a knowledge of ocular anatomy that most general surgical pathologists have either never possessed or have long since forgotten. The authors of this volume state that their main objective is to emphasise the important features of these lesions that are of special interest to general and surgical pathologists. In addition to providing complete descriptions of the tumours and tumour-like lesions in the various co...
