Peptídeos obtidos da caseína bovina: produção e benefícios à saúde
É reconhecido que peptídeos, e não apenas aminoácidos, são os principais produtos da digestão proteica do leite. Os peptídeos com atividade biológica, ou peptídeos bioativos, são caracterizados por uma sequência de aminoácidos inativos no interior da proteína precursora, liberados mediante hidrólise química ou enzimática, e passam a exercer determinadas atividades biológicas. Há grande interesse no estudo da relação entre nutrição e imunidade devido à hipótese de que o consumo de determinados alimentos pode reduzir a susceptibilidade e/ou a progressão de doenças associadas ao sistema imune. O objetivo desse trabalho foi produzir, caracterizar e conhecer as atividade...
Anatomofisiologia do Corpo Humano
A anatomofisiologia remonta há séculos, ainda quando a dissecação de cadáveres era premissa básica para se conhecer e categorizar estruturas do corpo humano, bem como para delimitar o funcionamento de órgãos que, interagindo fisiologicamente, executam diversos processos necessários à manutenção da vida.Neste livro, para além do conhecimento básico de que o corpo humano conforma uma estrutura material muito organizada e complexa – células formam tecidos, tecidos formam órgãos, órgãos formam sistemas e sistemas formam o organismo –, as autoras inter-relacionam aspectos estruturais e funcionais do organismo humano com vistas a ampliar esse conhecimento aos diversos profissionais de saúde, como nutricionistas, fisioterapeutas, enfermeiros, entre outros.
Nutrient-Drug Interactions
Current research has given us a more complete understanding of how the chemicals in foods and herbs interact with natural and synthetic drugs. In some cases a single food or supplement can profoundly increase or decrease the toxicity and/or efficacy of a single drug. Although it is standard practice to examine the effects of food consumption on the
Nutrition and Critical Care
A complete state-of-the-art manual on nutritional support for ICU patients, the present book, written by internationally renowned specialists, addresses fundamental aspects of the pathophysiological response to injury as well as practical issues of nutritional care. New features include an analysis of gene polymorphism and its possible consequences for the survival of traumatized patients. A better understanding of this process could become a basis for defining new nutritional strategies. Hence the discussion on indications for immune-enhancing diets. Of special interest is the research on copathologies (i.e. obesity) which can change the prognosis of ICU patients who thus require specific nutritional support. Entirely new is the merging of the recommendations of international and national societies (e.g. ASPEN, ESPEN), first realized for this publication. This book is a basic tool for any professional in the field of nutritional care for ICU patients: intensivists, surgeons, pharmacists, dieticians, and PhD students.
Energy Balance and Obesity
Understanding the relationship between energy balance and obesity is essential to develop effective prevention programs and policies. The International Agency for Research on Cancer convened a Working Group of world-leading experts in December 2015 to review the evidence regarding energy balance and obesity, with a focus on low- and middle-income countries, and to consider the following scientific questions: (i) Are the drivers of the obesity epidemic related only to energy excess and/or do specific foods or nutrients play a major role in this epidemic? (ii) What are the factors that modulate these associations? (iii) Which types of data and/or studies will further improve our understanding? This book provides summaries of the evidence from the literature as well as the Working Group's conclusions and recommendations to tackle the global epidemic of obesity.
Critical Limb Ischemia
This book provides a comprehensive overview of acute and chronic critical limb ischemia (CLI). Loss of an extremity, or a portion thereof, is not necessarily a life-ending process, but it is a debilitating experience whether involvement is of the upper or lower extremity. It reviews the epidemiology, pathophysiology, etiology, physical examination, imaging modalities, diagnosis, and treatment of limb ischemia. It investigates the most frequent as well as the more unusual etiological processes that may lead to the most dreaded concern of patients and families: amputation. The therapeutics of CLI has been significantly advanced through the multidisciplinary approach to the patient and disease, a focus that is explored in detail throughout the book. Surgical and endovascular treatment guidelines as well as medical therapy, wound healing, and long-term care are discussed. Featuring an extensive illustration program, Critical Limb Ischemia: Acute and Chronic, is a valuable resource for vascular and endovascular surgeons, vascular medicine specialists, interventional radiologists, and cardiologists.

Talking with Patients and Families about Medical Error
More than a million patient safety incidents occur every year, and medical error is the third leading cause of death in the United States. Illuminating the experiences of those affected by medical error—patients, their loved ones, and physicians and other medical professionals—Talking with Patients and Families about Medical Error delves deeply into the challenges of communicating honestly and openly about mistakes in medical practice. cc Based on guidelines from the Institute for Professional and Ethical Practice and the authors' own experiences, the practice-based approaches outlined here offer concrete guidance on • initiating discussions • dealing professionally and compassionate...
Universal Access in Human–Computer Interaction. Design and Development Approaches and Methods
The three-volume set LNCS 10277-10279 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the11th International Conference on Universal Access in Human-Computer Interaction, UAHCI 2017, held as part of the 19th International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction, HCII 2017, in Vancouver, BC, Canada in July 2017, jointly with 14 other thematically similar conferences. The total of 1228 papers presented at the HCII 2017 conferences were carefully reviewed and selected from 4340 submissions. The papers included in the three UAHCI 2017 volumes address the following major topics: Design for All Methods and Practice; Accessibility and Usability Guidelines and Evaluation; User and Context Modelling and Monitoring and Interaction Adaptation; Design for Children; Sign Language Processing; Universal Access to Virtual and Augmented Reality; Non Visual and Tactile Interaction; Gesture and Gaze-Based Interaction; Universal Access to Health and Rehabilitation; Universal Access to Education and Learning; Universal Access to Mobility; Universal Access to Information and Media; and Design for Quality of Life Technologies.
