This book reviews recent advancements in medical virology, including molecular epidemiology, diagnostics, and therapeutic strategies for various viral infections. It provides a comprehensive overview of infectious diseases caused by emerging and re-emerging viruses, covering their immunopathology, diagnosis, treatment, epidemiology, and etiology. It also discusses clinical recommendations in the management of infectious diseases, focusing on current practices, recent advances in diagnostic approaches, therapeutic strategies, challenges in viral vaccine development, and the application of viruses in translational research and human healthcare.
A collection exploring current developments and concepts in Physical Virology, focusing on the intersection of physics, mathematics, and structural molecular biology applied to viruses.
An advanced volume focused on the structure and physics of viruses. It is part of the Subcellular Biochemistry series, providing an integrated guide to emerging topics in Cell Biology and related molecular subjects.
A comprehensive series of articles designed to aid dental professionals in the orthodontic evaluation of patients. It covers key topics including assessing the need for treatment, patient examination, treatment planning, appliance selection, and managing risks associated with orthodontic procedures.
The seventh edition of this highly influential medical textbook focusing on the fundamental principles and mechanisms of disease (Pathology). This excerpt specifically mentions Volume I.
This text details a micro-localized diagnostic system, Eye Diagnosis (ๆ็ผ่พจ่ฏ), developed by Deliang Zheng. It applies the five-color micro-diagnosis theory from the Huang Di Nei Jing using modern technology to analyze capillaries, pigments, and spots in the eye for highly effective clinical diagnoses. The method is presented as a distinct approach, transcending both conventional medicine and traditional holistic systems like European Iridology and Chinese eye Acupuncture.
An analysis of ocular physiology covering the three structural layers and contents of the eye. Topics include the visible electromagnetic spectrum, principles of light (absorption, reflection, and refraction, calculation of refractive power in diopters), and the detailed function of the retina (rods vs. cones, scotopic and photopic vision, Duplicity Theory). Also examines protective mechanisms of the eye, including tear film composition and types of eyelid closure.
A comprehensive guide focused on implementing infection prevention and control measures in dental settings, covering topics such as dental office sanitation, cross-infection prevention, and general safety protocols for dental health services.
A concise review covering key topics in rheumatology, including disease-specific autoantibodies (e.g., Anti-ds DNA, Anti-histone, ANCA), clinical presentation, investigation, and management of conditions like Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE), Polymyositis, Dermatomyositis, and Polymyalgia Rheumatica.
A medical text presenting contentious issues and challenging cases in Neuro-ophthalmology using a structured debate format to explore differing diagnostic and management approaches.
A comprehensive collection of multiple-choice questions (MCQs) designed to test and reinforce knowledge across fundamental medical subjects, including Anatomy, Physiology, and Biochemistry. Primarily intended for medical and health science students preparing for standardized examinations.
A comprehensive report detailing the status of oral health in America and providing recommendations for improvement, published by the Institute of Medicine (IOM) and the National Academies Press.
This book introduces the ontogenetic cancer field model, contrasting it with traditional concepts of local cancer progression. It details how tumors propagate locally within specific tissues, focusing on mapping the ontogenetic anatomy of the female reproductive system to understand local spread patterns of lower genital tract carcinomas.
