Inflammatory Cardiomyopathy (DCMi) - Pathogenesis and Therapy
Cardiomyopathy is one of the most frequent causes of heart failure. It is often associated with inadequate heart pumping or other heart function abnormalities. There are many different causes of the disease, therefore many different kinds of cardiomyopathies exist. This volume, written by a leading expert, focuses on inflammatory CM, belonging to the Dilated Cardiomyopathies (DCMi). It covers epidemiology/prognosis, pathology, immunology, diagnosis and treatment strategies.
Children of the Revolution
For those who lived in the wake of the French Revolution, its aftermath left a profound wound that no subsequent king, emperor, or president could heal. "Children of the Revolution" follows the ensuing generations who repeatedly tried and failed to come up with a stable regime after the trauma of 1789.
New Insights into Parvovirus Research
Viruses in the Parvoviridae family constitute one of the most diverse and intriguing fields of research. While they all share an ssDNA genome and a small capsid, they can differ widely in structure, genome organization and expression, virus–cell interaction, and impact on the host. Exploring such diversity and unraveling the inherent complexity in these apparently simple viruses is an ongoing endeavor and commitment for the scientific community. The translational implications of research on parvoviruses are relevant. Within the family, some viruses are important human and veterinary pathogens, in need of diagnostic methods and antiviral strategies; other viruses have long been studied and ...

Trends in Inflammation Research
The process of inflammation, which causes the swelling and redness around a wound, is a vital part of the body's system for fighting off infections. When the body is hurt, the immune system produces chemical signals telling cells to multiply without dying, allowing skin to close over a gash, for example. Other chemicals spur the growth of new blood vessels to feed the recovering tissue. Scientists have linked inflammation to cancer and recently to heart disease in several ways. Doctors suspect that long-term inflammation or infection is involved in up to 20 per cent of cancers, including those of the oesophagus, colon, skin, stomach, liver, bladder, breast and some kinds of lymphoma. C-reactive protein (CRP) is one of the acute phase proteins that increase during systemic inflammation. It's been suggested that testing CRP levels in the blood may be a new way to assess cardiovascular disease risk. A high sensitivity assay for CRP test (hs-CRP) is now widely available. This book presents recent leading-edge research from around the world.
CLINICAL CASES IN CARDIOVASCULAR PRACTICE
This book is merely a collection of medical cases; it is a tribute to the collaborative efforts of patients, families, caregivers, and researchers in the ongoing quest for cardiovascular health. It serves as a reminder of the importance of empathy, compassion, and human connection in the practice of medicine. As you delve into these clinical vignettes, may you find inspiration, enlightenment, and a renewed sense of purpose in the pursuit of optimal cardiovascular care. May the stories within these pages deepen your understanding, sharpen your clinical acumen, and ignite your passion for improving the lives of those affected by heart disease. Together, let us embark on this journey through the heart, guided by the lessons gleaned from each clinical encounter and empowered by the collective commitment to cardiovascular health.
IN THE SHADOW OF TYRANNY:
This physician’s true stories carry the reader from his roots in rural America into a turbulent Congo devastated by dictator Mobutu’s excesses; into refugee camps on Cambodia’s border, a Cambodia ravaged by dictator Pol Pot; into the Artibonite Valley beside Haitian peasants victimized by dictator Baby Doc Duvalier’s bungling; and into an interlude working with the Lakota, Chippewa, and Quinault Tribes of Native Americans. Medical Doctor Jim Fett says, “I want the reader to garner a sense of sharing and searching in the lives and stories of these persons who deal with victory and defeat, life and death, healing and hope.”
Biology of Invertebrate and Lower Vertebrate Collagens
Knowledge in the field of the biology of the extracellular matrix, and in particular of collagen, has made considerable progress over the last ten years, especially in mammals, birds and ln man with respect to very important applied medical aspects. Basic knowledge in the animal kingdom overall has increased more slowly and haphazardly. We, therefore, considered it useful to organize a meeting specifically devoted to the study of the invertebrate and lower vertebrate collagens. The NATO Scientific Division financed an Advanced Research Workshop aimed at bringing together experts qualified in collagen biology (with morphological, biochemical and genetic specialization) with researchers who ar...
