Hair is a major component of the body's tissue system that contributes to the individual's make up and confers a large degree of personal identity. Apart from its visible façade, hair also has a functional role. It has an unique structure and complex molecular development. The very nature of hair makes it a suitable marker for the prognosis of disease. Hair can also be used to screen for toxins and changes in the diet. However, there are currently no suitable publications available that describe hair in a rational scientific context. This handbook provides an academic approach to hair in health and disease. Divided into five sections the Handbook of Hair in Health and Disease provides an insight into hair growth and loss, molecular and cellular biology of hair, dietary toxicity and pathological history, diseases and treatments of hair, as well as shampoos and conditioners. Unique features of each chapter in this volume include relevant and useful 'Key facts' which highlight interesting or important findings of the specific subjects and 'Summary points' that will give a clear overview of the subjects treated in each chapter. The Handbook of Hair in Health and Disease will be essential to a variety of users, such as trichologists, doctors and nurses and all those interested or working within the area of hair health. This includes nutritionists and dieticians, scientific beauticians, health workers and practitioners, college and university lecturers and undergraduate and graduate students.

L'œdème maculaire est, depuis de nombreuses années, l'un des problèmes les plus importants dans les pathologies rétiniennes, car toute atteinte de la macula a un effet immédiat sur la vision et l'acuité visuelle centrale, et peut affecter d'une manière importante la qualité de vie du patient. Les progrès récents des technologies modernes d'imagerie ont considérablement amélioré le diagnostic et les résultats des traitements.Cet ouvrage retrace les bases physiopathologiques des œdèmes maculaires ainsi que les différentes approches pour l'administration des molécules thérapeutiques vers le segment postérieur de l'œil. Les données les plus récentes, fondées sur les preuves cliniques (Evidence based medicine), sont présentées dans ce livre sans pour autant négliger les nombreux domaines encore mal connus ou objets de controverses.Une des innovations les plus importantes dans le domaine des œdèmes maculaires a été la survenue de méthodes de traitement par injection intravitréenne de diverses molécules pour la thérapeutique des pathologies du segment postérieur. Ces nouvelles modalités ont pour objectif de restaurer la perméabilité de la barrière hémato-rétinienne en délivrant des molécules thérapeutiques soit anti-inflammatoires soit anti-VEGF (par voie systémique ou par voie locale ou intravitréenne, avec libération prolongée).Les recommandations pour les procédures de traitement ou les différentes thérapies ont été soigneusement analysées avant d'être proposées par les auteurs.Les divers aspects cliniques et étiologiques des œdèmes maculaires ont été également passés en revue en soulignant la nécessité d'essayer de préserver les photorécepteurs, dès le stade initial de l'affection, afin de maintenir la meilleure acuité visuelle centrale.

Negli ultimi anni la ricerca scientifica ha fatto notevoli progressi nello studio delle malattie dei capelli. Tricologia ambulatoriale, arricchito da un apparato iconografico di oltre 300 figure, descrive in modo dettagliato le numerose malattie e alterazioni dei capelli, della barba e dei peli del corpo. Particolare attenzione è dedicata alle nuove tecniche diagnostiche oggi disponibili e alle terapie più attuali adottate per queste patologie. Vengono infine affrontati argomenti più specifici, come i disturbi tricologici in età pediatrica e senile, le alterazioni da farmaci e quelle che si presentano in caso di malattie sistemiche, e la cosmesi del capello. Questo volume intende accompagnare il dermatologo, il chirurgo plastico e il medico generico nel riconoscimento e nella comprensione delle malattie dei capelli più frequenti, suggerendo la gestione del paziente più corretta e la scelta della terapia migliore.

Manual of Pathology of the Human Placenta, Second Edition is a concise, practical manual of placental pathology. While references are made to the more encyclopedic Pathology of the Human Placenta, this Manual is designed as a user-friendly, easy-to-read bench manual that can be used in the grossing room as well as at the microscope. Features of the text include: - A section on the approach to the placental specimen, providing suggestions on what to do, as well as when and how to do it. - Discussion of detailed development and normal histology of all parts of the placenta for those wanting to learn about specific areas of the placenta. - Discussion of placental lesions, disease processes related to the placenta, neoplasms, and trophoblastic lesions. - An overview of the legal implications of placental examination and future directions. - "Suggestions for Examination and Report" includes key points in gross examination, sectioning, and diagnosis. Suggestions for comments in the surgical pathology report guide the reader in problematic situations or when the diagnosis or diagnostic implications are unclear. - An abundance of tables summarize pertinent information and provide easy access to the differential diagnoses of various lesions. Manual of Pathology of the Human Placenta, Second Edition is a must-have reference for every pathologist, resident and pathology assistant. .
