Abstract

Quatrième de couverture : "Cet ouvrage traite de toute la pathologie pelvienne que l’IRM permet d’explorer de nos jours. C’est le premier livre qui couvre l’ensemble de cette pathologie qu’elle soit féminine ou masculine. Après un rappel anatomique, il aborde successivement les trois grands appareils qui peuvent être atteints dans cette région chez l’homme et/ou la femme : la pathologie digestive, la pathologie urinaire et génitale, et la pathologie gynécologique. L’exploration de la région pelvienne se prête bien à cette imagerie IRM qui, en complément de l’échographie endopelvienne, est devenue en quelques années la technique d'imagerie de référence, dans la mesure où elle répond aux contraintes de cette région anatomique. L’IRM fournit en effet de très bons contrastes tissulaires spontanés et évalue très bien l’anatomie complexe de cette région profonde qu’il est nécessaire d’explorer dans les trois dimensions de l’espace et/ou en mode dynamique. L’ouvrage s’attache aussi bien à traiter de la pathologie inflammatoire ou cancéreuse, que des atteintes fonctionnelles. Le Pr. Frank Boudghène a su faire appel pour sa rédaction aux meilleurs spécialistes français de l’IRM pelvienne : c’est pourquoi cet ouvrage constitue un guide précieux d’aide à la prise en charge des pathologies morphologiques et fonctionnelles du pelvis, à l’heure où le champ de la pelvi-périnéologie est en pleine évolution. S’il est destiné en premier lieu aux radiologues, il servira de document de travail à tous ceux qui sont concernés par la pathologie pelvienne et qui ont encore du mal à se familiariser avec l’IRM : cancérologues, chirurgiens viscéraux, gastro-entérologues, urologues, gynécologues, chirurgiens gynécologiques, sages-femmes, neurologues, kinésithérapeutes, médecins généralistes, et enfin à tous ceux qui seront amenés à demander un examen d’IRM chez les patients qu’ils prennent en charge."

Abstract

Publisher's presentation : "A full-color, case-based review of the essentials of pathophysiology--covering all major organs and systems. The goal of this trusted text is to introduce you to clinical medicine by reviewing the pathophysiologic basis of 120 diseases (and associated signs and symptoms) commonly encountered in medical practice. The authors, all experts in their respective fields, have provided a concise review of relevant normal structure and function of each body system, followed by a description of the pathophysiologic mechanisms that underlie several common diseases related to that system. Each chapter of Pathophysiology of Disease concludes with a collection of case studies and questions designed to test your understanding of the pathophysiology of each clinical entity discussed. These case studies allow you to apply your knowledge to specific clinical situations. Detailed answers to each case study question are provided at the end of the book. This unique interweaving of physiological and pathological concepts will put you on the path toward thinking about signs and symptoms in terms of their pathophysiologic basis, giving you an understanding of the "why" behind illness and treatment.Features : 120 case studies (9 new) provide an opportunity for you to test your understanding of the pathophysiology of each clinical entity discussed Checkpoint questions provide review and appear in every chapter ; Updates and revisions throughout this new edition reflect the latest research and developments ; Numerous tables and diagrams encapsulate important information Updated references for each chapter topic. Pathophysiology of Disease is a true must-have resource for medical students preparing for the USMLE Step 1 exam, as well as students engaged in their clerkship studies. House officers, nurses, nurse practitioners, physicians’ assistants, and allied health practitioners will find its concise presentation and broad scope a great help in facilitating their understanding of common disease entities."

Abstract

This book provides a critical evaluation of the 5fth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5). Starting from a historical overview of the evolution in psychiatric diagnosis, Vanheule asserts that the diagnostic reliability of the DSM-5 is overrated: important factors that undermine its diagnostic reliability have never been sufficiently addressed and the common idea that the handbook is reliable rests on a biased interpretation of statistical data. The book argues that the DSM-5 builds on a narrow biomedical approach to mental disorders that neglects context, and proposes its replacement with a contextualizing model of mental health symptoms. Drawing from phenomenological psychiatry and Lacanian psychoanalysis, the author concludes that a reflexive account of psychopathology is urgently needed.www.us.macmillan.com

Abstract

L'inscription du Bassin minier du Nord-Pas-de-Calais au patrimoine mondial de l'humanité en 2011 a fait de la mine un lieu de mémoire universel et des gueules noires les héros et martyrs d’un monde disparu. Pourtant, l’activité minière, quasiment révolue dans la Vieille Europe et les pays de la première industrialisation, est aujourd’hui en pleine expansion dans la plupart des pays émergents, au point de constituer l’une des activités économiques essentielles de la Chine, du Brésil, de l’Afrique australe et de l’Inde. Érigeant en mythe un monde ouvrier fier de ses valeurs de courage, de solidarité et de puissance virile, Zola a définitivement lié dans notre imaginaire la mine au danger et à la catastrophe. Mais le vieux Maheux de Germinal concède aussi : « Du charbon, j’en ai dans la carcasse de quoi me chauffer jusqu’à la fin de mes jours ». Loin du spectacle de la mort collective, en effet, le travail à la mine est générateur de maladie et d’agonie silencieuse : silicose, ankylostomiase, sidérose et cancers dessinent les contours d’une catastrophe de masse, bien plus meurtrière, vécue à l’échelle individuelle par ceux qui perdent leur vie à la gagner depuis deux siècles. C’est l’histoire, longtemps occultée, que ce livre raconte. Réunissant les contributions de chercheurs internationaux, dont certains pour la première fois en français, il offre une réflexion à la croisée de l’histoire du travail, de la santé, des mobilisations sociales et des politiques publiques. Voyage dans les maux de la mine de charbon, de cuivre ou d’uranium, de la France au Chili, du Japon à l’Afrique du Sud, de l’Allemagne à la Chine, de l’Ecosse à l’Espagne, de la Belgique aux États-Unis, ce livre apporte un regard historique neuf sur une question d’une sinistre actualité dans notre monde globalisé.

Abstract

People with disabilities still face many challenges, barriers, discrimination and exclusion. Considerable progress has transformed their lives in recent decades, but many challenges remain, in part because the policy cannot do everything and that is to change mentalities. This book discusses ethical issues about inclusion, recognition, solidarity, governance, civic engagement, the ability to lead a 'normal life', to work, to raise a family. It delves into the 'world of disability' and invites all to construct a society which accommodates differences and weaknesses.

Abstract

Quatrième de couverture : "La douleur étant généralement conçue comme une expérience subjective, c’est vers son patient que se tourne le praticien pour l’évaluer. Comment dès lors détecter la douleur chez des enfants souffrant de maladies orphelines et ne pouvant pas s’exprimer par la parole ? L’enjeu central des consultations d’analgésie, pour ces enfants polyhandicapés et non parlants, est la confrontation de l’évidence perceptive issue de l’examen clinique et des connaissances d’arrière-plan fournies par l’entourage parental et médical. L’algologue observe non seulement les symptômes mais aussi leur inscription au sein des modes expressifs infraverbaux (mécontentement, quête affective, souffrance) propres à chaque enfant. L’approche conversationnelle permet aux auteurs d’échapper à la fausse alternative du subjectivisme et de l’objectivisme dans laquelle se sont enfermées en règle générale les études sur la douleur. Nulle tension entre le regard clinique et relationnel, mais une complémentarité qui apporte un éclairage nouveau sur le raisonnement médical."
