Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Neurodegenerative diseases share the common property of neuronal loss in the higher-order association and limbic cortices or the extrapyramidal and pyramidal motor systems. In addition, oligodendroglia, astrocytes, and microglia have been implicated in fundamental abnormalities of virtually every neurodegenerative disorder. The particular system affected, more importantly the distribution of the pathology, determines the clinical presentation. While the most common dementia and movement disorders, such as Alzheimer¿s disease, Lewy body disease, and frontotemporal lobar degeneration with TDP-43 pathology, including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, have been extensively studied, many less common, even rare neurodegenerative disorders have gained more attention in recent years. This shift in focus is perhaps driven, in part, by the severely underestimated financial costs associated with these diseases, as well as the immense emotional burden they impose on patients and their caregivers. This book presents the most recent developments in rare neurodegenerative disorders. Insights gained from the investigation of pathophysiological mechanisms of these rare disorders may lead to the development of therapeutic strategies for more prevalent neurodegenerative disorders. In addition to highlighting advancements in research, the book discusses the significant challenges faced by researchers and healthcare professionals in diagnosing and treating rare diseases. It emphasizes the critical need for continued funding and support for research, which is essential to improving patient outcomes and advancing our understanding of these complex conditions.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 198 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -This book focuses on two distinct clinical situations: patients with supraventricular arrhythmias and patients with dyssynchrony who could benefit from resynchronization therapy. Undoubtedly, these two subjects differ, but they share many fundamental characteristics. So, the link between supraventricular arrhythmias and resynchronization therapy is not accidental. On the one hand, persistent atrial arrhythmias maycause the left ventricle to dilate, resulting in tachyarrhythmic cardiomyopathy. Nevertheless, arrhythmias, particularly supraventricular ones such as atrial fibrillation, may worsen dilated cardiomyopathy. Before beginning any resynchronization therapy, the atrial arrhythmia must be addressed to ensure a high pacing percentage and optimum cardiac synchronization. The book¿s first section focuses on supraventricular arrhythmias, covering tachycardias using accessory pathways and atrial fibrillation. The book¿s second section discusses the physiological justification and technique of resynchronization therapy in patients with heart failure, as well as indications, implantation technique, challenges, and long-term results. Overall, the chapters are useful for experienced arrhythmology specialists, both electrophysiologists and device implantation cardiologists. They cover equally demanding procedures of CRT implantation and the treatment of supraventricular arrhythmias using catheter ablation.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 152 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Cancer immunotherapy utilizes the immune system to identify and target cancer cells. Over the past decades, researchers have advanced these treatments by (1) uncovering how tumors evade the immune system and (2) developing techniques to trigger an anti-tumor immune response and block tumor immune escape. These immunotherapies can be administered alone or in combination with other treatments, leading to an improved survival rate and quality of life for cancer patients. Indeed, several immunotherapies have received approval from the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of various cancers. For instance, blocking PD-1/PD-L1 has increased the five-year survival rate for patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer. However, the effectiveness of current immunotherapies varies significantly among patients, and they can cause severe side effects. Although there is still a need for improvement, cancer immunotherapy is regarded as a promising therapeutic modality. This book focuses on the preclinical development and evolving clinical landscape of cancer immunotherapy, encouraging synthetic organic/medicinal chemists, immunologists, and biologists to develop new, safe, and affordable treatments.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 152 pp. Englisch.
