Cloth. Condizione: Like New. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. Type: Book Inflammatory bowel diseases are still a challenging problem in today's gastroenterology. Although their aetiology is still not understood, steady progress has been made recently in the understanding of their pathogenesis, due to the application of innovative molecular and cellular biological methods. Knowledge of the immunology of the gut and the basic mechanisms of inflammatory reactions, especially pro- and anti-inflammatory mediators, the characterization of inflammatory cell types and their functions and molecules mediating cell interactions. This book aims to close the gap between new findings in pathophysiology and treatment in order to better understand current therapeutic concepts and to develop new strategies for the future. lt comprises the proceedings of the 67th Falk Symposium, held in Regensburg, June 1992, and contains sections on aetiology, pathophysiology, extra-intestinal manifestations, diagnosis and treatment.N.B.D/J spine slightly faded with slight mark to base of d/j spine.563pp.

Cloth. Condizione: Like New. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. Type: Book Although the first description of patients with what we now call Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis, was published well before 1900, both disorders seem to be diseases of the 20th century. At the very start of the 21st century, it therefore seems appropriate to look back and at the same time look forward, and to assess what knowledge has been gained during the last 100 years and in what direction research and thereby clinical practice will go in the future. This book, the proceedings of Falk Symposium No. 111 held in Freiburg, Germany, on June 19th and 20th, 1999, contains contributions from experienced senior scientists on the state of the art in pathophysiology, diagnosis and treatment, together with unpublished and new findings from young researchers. Basic scientists and clinicians are thereby involved in an exchange of information which will lead to new directions for future research and clinical management of inflammatory bowel diseases.N.B.D/J spine slightly faded with slight mark to base of d/j spine.321pp.

Cloth. Condizione: Like New. Condizione sovraccoperta: Like New. Type: Book This book, the proceedings of Falk Symposium 133 on Mechanisms of Intestinal Inflammation: Implications for Therapeutic Intervention in IBD', held in Berlin, Germany, on 10-11 June 2003, summarizes present knowledge in the area of unspecific and specific immune reactions in the gut, recording the gaps in our knowledge and, in particular, presenting the possibilities of targeted intervention. The link to inflammatory bowel diseases - Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis - is always in focus. Chapters by an international panel of basic scientists, clinical researchers and clinicians also record the problems which can originate through today's possible modulation of the immune reaction, setting the basis for review of clinical problems. This book is valuable readings for all scientists and physicians, who, from different perspectives, have an interest in research on IBD and in the clinical management of these diseases. 220pp.

Cloth. Condizione: Like New. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. Type: Book The first gene responsible for Crohn's disease has now been identified and the pathophysiological understanding of inflammatory bowel disease as well as its practical treatment have made much progress in recent years. Thus, it is obviously important to consider the targets and the aims of treatment in context. The Falk Symposium No. 131 (Part II of the Gastroenterology Week Freiburg 2002), held in October 2002 in Freiburg, Germany, in its first part was dedicated to newly defined and partly alternative therapeutic targets. In addition, an attempt was made to learn from experts from other fields such as pneumology or dermatology. The second part was dedicated to the aims of treatment in daily practice. Aside from general treatment, aims such as amelioration of symptoms, pre-conditions of treatment, the view of the patients, and aspects of life quality were dealt with. This volume is the proceedings of the symposium and is important reading for both clinicians and basic scientists. N.B.D/J spine slightly faded with slight mark to base of d/j spine.245pp.

Cloth. Condizione: Like New. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. Type: Book Portal hypertension is causally related to major complications of chronic liver disease like upper GI tract bleeding, ascites formation, portosystemic encephalopathy and bacterial infections. Recent approaches have increased knowledge of the underlying pathobiological events of these complications. Accordingly, promising treatment modalities have been developed and introduced into clinical trials. This book, the proceedings of the 79th Falk Symposium in Freiburg-im-Breisgau, 17-19 June 1994, presents the recent developments in the field, including a section which describes the role of portal hypertension in the pathogenesis of complications of chronic liver disease. Also covered is the therapeutic management of portal hypertension and its consequences as well as the latest endoscopic, interventional and surgical treatment options.

Cloth. Condizione: Like New. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. Type: Book Most symposia on chronic inflammatory bowel disease during the last few years have focused on new aspects of aetiology and pathophysiology. However, based on such new aspects, changes in diagnosis and treatment have been developed in recent years and some others are currently under investigation. This book, the proceedings of Falk Symposium 97: Clinical Challenges in Inflammatory Bowel Diseases - Diagnosis, Prognosis and Treatment, held in Switzerland in April 1997, summarizes these changes and new developments, discusses their value and defines further new approaches. The topics include primary diagnosis, definition of different patient groups, special problems of these patients in daily life and recent therapeutic principles.N.B.D/J spine slightly faded with slight mark to base of d/j spine.270pp.
