On Rounds: 1000 Internal Medicine Pearls 1st Edition

51j3rsz4k1l-_sx338_bo1204203200_

[amazon template=iframe image2&asin=1496322215]

Clinical judgment is a critical aspect – perhaps the most critical aspect – of efficient, accurate, and cost-effective patient care. Focusing on essential clinical skills, On Rounds: 1000 Internal Medicine Pearls helps clinicians in training and in practice to identify the critical findings that will simplify complex clinical problems and lead to an accurate diagnosis. One thousand easy-to-remember clinical aphorisms, or “pearls,” help you distinguish the important findings from the incidental, pointing out the distinctive features amidst the mass of data that is accumulated in the evaluation of a sick patient, and leading to the development of mature clinical judgment.

  • Go “on rounds” with one of the most respected educators in internal medicine and learn from his nearly 50 years of clinical experience.
  • Focus on the areas that are often a source of confusion for students, trainees, and even seasoned practitioners.
  • Learn each pearl in a relevant clinical context, with tables, clinical images, and physiology information, where appropriate.
  • Recognize “black pearls:” statements that, although widely believed, are demonstrably false.
  • Improve your clinical judgment skills whether you’re a resident or an experienced clinician.
  • Carry these pocket-sized pearls with you for quick reference.
Now with the print edition, enjoy the bundled interactive eBook edition, which can be downloaded to your tablet and smartphone or accessed online and includes features like:
  • Complete content with enhanced navigation

Child and Adolescent Resilience Within Medical Contexts: Integrating Research and Practice 1st ed. 2016 Edition

51rtq0xt-fl-_sx313_bo1204203200_

[amazon template=iframe image2&asin=3319322214]

This book explores the social conditions that promote pediatric resilience. It presents resilience as a set of complex interpersonal, institutional, and political relationships that affect young patients’ ability to “do well” in the face of medical adversity. Chapters analyze the impact of chronic or disabling conditions on children’s development, while highlighting effective interventions that promote family well-being. This book integrates research from psychology, social work, medical anthropology, child life specialty, palliative care, public health, and nursing to examine a wide variety of family, cultural, and medical contexts. Practical strategies for supporting children and families are discussed, from meaningful assessment and interventions to social policy and advocacy.
Featured topics include:
  • Psychosocial factors influencing children with immune-related health conditions.
  • Resilience and pediatric cancer survivorship within a cultural context.
  • Promoting resilience in chronically ill children and their families during the transition to adolescence.
  • Creating a context for resilience in medical settings.
  • Promoting resilience through children’s health and social care policy.
Child and Adolescent Resilience Within Medical Contexts is a must-have resource for researchers, clinicians and other professionals, as well as graduate students in child and school psychology, child and adolescent psychiatry, social work, pediatrics, medical anthropology, nursing, educational psychology and policy.

Hearing Aids (Springer Handbook of Auditory Research) 1st ed. 2016 Edition

41cywzlrxel-_sx340_bo1204203200_

[amazon template=iframe image2&asin=3319330349]

This volume will serve as the first Handbook of its kind in the area of hearing aid research, often the least-defined, least-understood, part of the multi-disciplinary research process. Most scientific training is very advanced within the particular disciplines but provides little opportunity for systematic introduction to the issues and obstacles that prevent effective hearing-aid related research. This area has emerged as one of critical importance, as signified by a single specialized meeting (the International Hearing Aid Conference, IHCON) that brings together specialists from the disparate disciplines involved, including both university and industry researchers. Identification of the key steps that enable high-impact basic science to ultimately result in significant clinical advances that improve patient outcome is critical. This volume will provide an overview of current key issues in hearing aid research from the perspective of many different disciplines, not only from the perspective of the key funding agencies, but also from the scientists and clinicians who are currently involved in hearing aid research. It will offer insight into the experience, current technology and future technology that can help improve hearing aids, as scientists and clinicians typically have little or no formal training over the whole range of the individual disciplines that are relevant. The selection and coverage of topics insures that it will have lasting impact, well beyond immediate, short-term, or parochial concerns.

Skin Stress Response Pathways: Environmental Factors and Molecular Opportunities 1st ed. 2016 Edition

41ah5zvz7ol-_sx330_bo1204203200_

[amazon template=iframe image2&asin=3319431552]

It is now established that the interplay between environmental exposure and molecular stress response pathways plays a critical role in skin health and disease, and a refined mechanistic understanding of this phenomenon at the molecular level promises to open new avenues for targeted therapeutic strategies that may benefit patients in the near future. Coauthored by recognized international leaders in molecular and clinical biomedical sciences, this novel book provides a comprehensive perspective on environmental exposure-induced skin stress response pathways.  Focusing on molecular opportunities targeting skin stress response pathways that are involved in cutaneous barrier function and repair, antimicrobial defense, immune regulation, inflammation, and malignant progression, the book is essential reading for students, basic researchers, and biomedical health care professionals interested in skin health and disease with implications for small molecule therapeutic development.

New Insights on Antiviral Probiotics: From Research to Applications 1st ed. 2017 Edition

51gebbrp3cl-_sx340_bo1204203200_

[amazon template=iframe image2&asin=3319496875]

This book focuses on probiotics with antiviral activities. The “antiviral probiotic” is a new concept in medical sciences. Recently, studies have shown that antiviral probiotics can fight or prevent viral infections in many ways. The immunomodulation of mucosal immunity, production of antiviral compounds, virus trapping and the use thereof as vaccination vectors are the principal modes of action of antiviral probiotics. The author dedicates an entire chapter of the book to discussing the methods and techniques used to assess the antiviral activity of probiotic strains and their metabolites.

Neuroeconomics (Studies in Neuroscience, Psychology and Behavioral Economics) 1st ed. 2016 Edition

41nvtkn8pll-_sx313_bo1204203200_

[amazon template=iframe image2&asin=3642359221]

This book represents one of the cornerstones of the series Studies in Neuroscience, Psychology and Behavioral Economics. It is divided into eight sections, starting with an introduction to neuroeconomics followed by an overview of frequently applied experimental paradigms (games) in neuroeconomics research. Furthermore, it addresses the molecular basis of human decision making, environmental/situational factors and social contexts influencing human decision making, as well as translational and developmental/clinical approaches to neuroeconomics. In closing, a paper on neuro-marketing demonstrates how knowledge from neuroeconomics research can be applied in “real life.” Culminating in an extensive methods section, in which eight different neuroscience techniques are introduced, the book offers an essential resource for researchers and practitioners, and may also be beneficial for graduate students.
