Improving Access to Oral Health Care for Vulnerable and Underserved Populations
Access to oral health care is essential to promoting and maintaining overall health and well-being, yet only half of the population visits a dentist each year. Poor and minority children are less likely to have access to oral health care than are their nonpoor and nonminority peers. Older adults, people who live in rural areas, and disabled individuals, uniformly confront access barriers, regardless of their financial resources. The consequences of these disparities in access to oral health care can lead to a number of conditions including malnutrition, childhood speech problems, infections, diabetes, heart disease, and premature births. Improving Access to Oral Health Care for Vulnerable an...
Attachment in Adulthood
Synthesizing a vast body of empirical research and organizing it around a comprehensive conceptual model, this book is recognized as the definitive reference on adult attachment. The authors explain how what began as a theory of child development is now used to conceptualize and study nearly all aspects of social functioning across the lifespan, including mental representations of self and others, emotion regulation, personal goals and strivings, couple relationships, caregiving, sexuality, psychopathology, psychotherapy, and organizational behavior. The origins and measurement of individual differences in adult attachment are examined, as is the question of whether and how attachment patter...
Attachment in Adulthood, Second Edition
This volume shows how attachment theory, which initially focused on child development, is now being used to elucidate social functioning across the lifespan.
Biomedical Photonics for Diabetes Research
In 2021, over 537 million people worldwide were diagnosed with diabetes, according to the International Diabetes Federation and so the diagnosis, care and treatment of patients with diabetes mellitus have become one of the highest healthcare priorities. Biomedical photonics methods have been found to significantly improve and assist in the diagnosis of various disorders and complications arising from diabetes. These methods have also been widely used in various studies in the field of diabetes, including in the assessment of biochemical characteristics, metabolic processes, and microcirculation that are impaired in this disease. This book provides an introduction to methods of biomedical pho...
Advancing Oral Health in America
Though it is highly preventable, tooth decay is a common chronic disease both in the United States and worldwide. Evidence shows that decay and other oral diseases may be associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes, respiratory disease, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes. However, individuals and many health care professionals remain unaware of the risk factors and preventive approaches for many oral diseases. They do not fully appreciate how oral health affects overall health and well-being. In Advancing Oral Health in America, the Institute of Medicine (IOM) highlights the vital role that the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) can play in improving oral health and oral health c...
Genetic variants and metabolic diseases, volume II
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a set of co-morbidities that collectively increase an individual’s risk of developing cardiovascular disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D). Per the World Health Organization (WHO), MetS is typically characterized by obesity, insulin resistance, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia. Building on this point, some of the major risk factors for development of MetS include increased weight or an obese phenotype, lack of physical activity, and genetics. Interestingly, the last decade has witnessed a deluge of Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) that have linked hundreds of genomic with both collective MetS traits, as well as individual metabolic disorders...
Fostering Culture Through Film
The perceived lack of understanding of cultural diversity in the American learning community has led instructors to challenge assumptions and stereotypes while addressing misconceptions. Teachers of foreign languages and cultural studies, in particular, feel the need to redesign curricula and lesson plans to better serve the learning community of the twenty-first century. The common starting point resides in the paradox that exists in today’s connected world; while global access to information makes learners aware of the infinite variety of cultural diversity, it does not, however, make them critical thinkers. For this reason, there is opportunity to reshape critical thinking within a more...
Differentiele diagnostiek in de interne geneeskunde
Voor het stellen van een juiste diagnose is een goede differentiële diagnose gebaseerd op anamnestische gegevens en bevindingen bij lichamelijk onderzoek essentieel. Het succes van de eerdere drukken van deze uitgave heeft aangetoond dat een boek, waarin de interne geneeskunde vanuit de differentieel–diagnostische invalshoek wordt benaderd, in het Nederlandse taalgebied in een leemte voorziet. Deze vierde, herziene druk heeft opnieuw enige verbeteringen ondergaan.
Differentiële diagnostiek in de interne geneeskunde
Voor het stellen van een juiste diagnose is een goede differentiële diagnose gebaseerd op anamnestische gegevens en bevindingen bij lichamelijk onderzoek essentieel. Daarbij is een consequente en systematische benadering noodzakelijk. Dit boek heeft zich vanaf de eerste druk, nu twintig jaar geleden, bewezen als een waardevol hulpmiddel bij dit proces. In deze herziene editie komen opnieuw alle aspecten van de interne geneeskunde aan bod. Veel hoofdstukken zijn herschreven door nieuwe auteurs. Nieuw is dat aan de lever een apart hoofdstuk is gewijd; hetzelfde geldt voor somatisch onverklaarde klachten. Zoveel als mogelijk is gebruik gemaakt van recente richtlijnen en standaarden. In eerdere...
