This book discusses the new era of modern retinal laser therapy and its clinical applications. While the photocoagulation era universally presupposed the therapeutic necessity of laser-induced retinal damage, the modern retinal laser therapy is equally opposed to this idea. The evidence for this sea-change in the understanding of retinal laser is well presented within this book, and the conceptual and clinical consequences are discussed with particular emphasis on the emergence of retinal laser therapy as the first reasonable preventive and restorative intervention for the most important retinal disorders. Finally, the future of modern retinal laser therapy is highlighted with respect to coming technological advances, remaining challenges, and the place of retinal laser in the management of retinal disease. This book is an essential resource for all ophthalmic residents and clinicians seeking a clear and concise guide to modern retinal laser therapy in their everyday practice.

The first volume of the book-Emerging Human Viral diseases presents pathogenesis, diagnostics, and therapeutic strategies against viral respiratory and hemorrhagic fever diseases. The initial chapter discusses the underlying factors contributing to the emergence of these viral diseases. The subsequent chapters introduce structure, composition, and organization of viral genomes, and provide insight into function of important viral proteins. It also discusses the host factors that influence the outcome of viral infection and host immune response to the infections caused by these viruses. The book also discusses clinical manifestation and strategies for the prevention of virus diseases and highlights the recent technical advances in the diagnosis of virus diseases, prevention, and control strategies for viral infections. This timely book offers valuable resource for the scientists working in the field of emerging viral infections and those involved in preventing, controlling, and managing viral diseases.

This interdisciplinary work deals with the bacterial degradation of organic and inorganic materials such as prosthetic devices and the consequent production of non-engineered nanoparticles (NPs). Focus is put on the interaction of these, often toxic, NPs with the environment, the microorganisms and the host human body. Electron Microscopy is the method of choice to investigate bacterial colonization and degradation of plastic polymers. Hence one section of the book is fully dedicated to the most recent and interesting microscopy technologies in microbiology and soft matters. The final chapter of the book on the complex and multivariate relationships between a microscopist and electron microscopy images is dedicated to Lyubov Vasilievna Didenko (1958 – 2015), a passionate researcher who contributed substantially to the field of Electron Microscopy research and its applications in studying bacterial-polymer interactions. The book addresses researchers and advanced students working in general and clinical microbiology, nanobiology, materials sciences and image analysis fields. .

This essential presents infectious diseases of humans and animals that occur or can become endemic in Germany and Europe. These include current threats, African swine fever, avian influenza and COVID-19. In addition, the biology of mosquitoes is described. Globalisation and global warming favour the establishment of new mosquito species that can transmit viruses of the tropics and subtropics, e.g. chikungunya, dengue and West Nile virus. The Schmallenberg virus, which is of veterinary relevance, shows how rapidly new pathogens are spreading in Europe. The content African swine fever Zoonoses: avian influenza, Borna disease and COVID-19 Mosquitoes Arboviruses of animals: Schmallenberg and bluetongue viruses Human arboviruses in Europe: Chikungunya, Dengue and West Nile viruses The target groups Persons with an interest in biological and biomedical topics and infectious diseases The authors Patric U. B. Vogel is a biologist and has worked with a variety of pathogenic bacteria and viruses. Among other things, he has taught a two-year virology/microbiology seminar, released vaccines as a Qualified Person, and is self-employed in the pharmaceutical field. Prof. Dr. Günter A. Schaub is a parasitologist and senior professor at the Ruhr-Universität Bochum. In the case of the Latin American Chagas disease, his research includes the interactions of the pathogen with the vectors as well as the distribution and vector biology of mosquitoes and ticks. This book is a translation of an original German edition. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com).

This book provides a comprehensive overview of diagnostic imaging in infectious and inflammatory diseases in central nervous system and spine. It starts with basic theory of infectious diseases, including pathological basis, laboratory diagnostic methods, and clinical imaging techniques. In following chapters, the authors firstly introduce the central nervous system infections related to respiratory, gastrointestinal, and contagious diseases. Then viral, bacterial, fungal, parasitic and special infections in central nervous system and spine are presented with clinical cases. Each disease is clearly illustrated using cases combined with high-quality CT and MRI. The book provides a valuable reference source for radiologists and doctors working in the area of infectious and inflammatory diseases.

This text, edited by two fellowship-trained rhinologists and two fellowship-trained neurotologists, represents an up-to-date comprehensive resource for any clinician or scientist involved in skull base reconstruction. Each chapter is written by a “super specialist” who has a clinical and/or academic focus in skull base pathologies and reconstruction. The first section is dedicated to basic principles, anatomy, physiology, imaging and anesthetic considerations. The second and third sections discuss pathological processes that lead to cerebrospinal fluid leaks and the need for skull base reconstruction within the anterior and lateral skull base, respectively. The fourth and fifth sections focus on anterior and lateral skull base reconstruction, respectively, with attention to reconstruction techniques and strategies for managing each defect type. The sixth section comprehensively reviews postoperative care and management strategies, where there is high variability and limited evidence, and is intended to present multiple perspectives that each carry merit. The final section highlights developments, research and emerging ideas regarding this ever-growing topic. Previous to this, there had been no book dedicated to this highly important and emerging topic that really challenges even the best of surgeons to this day. The intended audience of Skull Base Reconstruction includes skull base surgeons, otolaryngologists, neurosurgeons, neurologists, ophthalmologists, radiologists, emergency medicine physicians, trauma surgeons, and trainees and students in all of those areas.
