Riassunto

The first years of the 21st century have witnessed many exciting discoveries in the etiology and pathogenesis of rheumatic disorders. Concurrently, many innovative therapies have been developed for the management of these conditions that are safer and more effective than those previously offered patients. Following a discussion of the general clinical approach to rheumatic diseases, the major disorders are described under several groupings: erosive inflammatory arthropathies, collagen vascular diseases, vasculitides, infections, and degenerative diseases. The final sections consider common symptoms and comorbidities and summarize the latest findings in the pharmacological treatment of inflammatory rheumatic conditions. Problem-based approaches to diagnosis and management are emphasized throughout. Tables and figures abstract and illuminate the clearly written text. Case presentations provide instructive examples of every-day patients and situations seen in the office setting. Thorough and thoughtfully organized, the ACP "Expert Guide to Rheumatology" is a superb state-of-the-art reference for practicing internists, medical subspecialists, and nurse practitioners.
