  • Comprehensive Textbook of AIDS Psychiatryby Mary Ann Cohen; Jack M. Gorman

    Oxford University Press, USA 2007; US$ 98.50

    Among the vast and rapidly growing field of AIDS research, there is an ample body of evidence supporting the fact that psychiatric treatment can decrease transmission, diminish suffering, improve adherence, and decrease morbidity and mortality. There is probably no other illness in which the connections between mind and body are so inextricably woven. But until now there has been no comprehensive textbook of AIDS psychiatry to guide clinicians towards providing much needed care. Using a biopsychosocial approach, this 41-chapter volume offers insight into the interface between the psychiatric, medical, and social dimensions of HIV and AIDS. Drawing on clinical experience as well as evidence-based medicine, this textbook provides a basic understanding... more...

  • Anaphylaxisby Novartis Foundation Symposium

    John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 2004; US$ 195.00

    Anaphylaxis is an immediate-type allergic reaction involving the whole organism. It is the most life-threatening allergic condition. Although there are few exact epidemiological data regarding prevalence, estimates regarding insect sting anaphylaxis range from 1-3% in the general population, but much higher values have been reported by some authors for food and drug-induced anaphylaxis. Anaphylaxis is the main acute killer of allergic individuals. Although anaphylaxis was discovered at the beginning of the 20th century, there are still many unresolved issues. These include non-IgE-mediated anaphylactoid reactions, non-immunologically mediated anaphylactoid (pseudo-allergic) reactions, pathophysiological events at the microcirculatory level,... more...

  • Models and Approaches in Immunotoxicologyby Helen Tryphonas; Michel Fournier; Judit Smits; Pauline Brousseau

It addresses emerging methodologies at the cellular and molecular levels, advances in and requirements for animal model development in testing for allergenicity of foods and genetically modified products, and animal models of autoimmunity associated with chemical exposure. The presentation also includes recommendations for the selection of sentinel species in exotoxicology and an in-depth review of immunotoxicology as it relates to a variety of wildlife species. more...
