The management of venous disease has moved from the hospital and institutional setting to one that operates predominantly in an outpatient arena. These settings are often far more representative of a cosmetic surgery or dermatology practice, targeted to optimize the patient experience. Those who have adopted endovenous procedures in the typical hospital environment often meet obstacles that limit their ability to expand phlebology care. The purpose of this manual is to provide a practical yet effective framework for transitioning an existing hospital-based practice to the outpatient arena.

Mitral regurgitation (MR) affects millions of patients world wide. It is a progressive disease which worsens when left untreated. MR leads to compensatory remodeling of the left ventricle resulting in reduced functional capacity, poor quality of life, repeat hospitalizations, and eventually death from heart failure. Open, arrested heart surgery has until now been the therapeutic treatment of choice. However, many high-risk patients cannot tolerate traditional heart surgery and continue to suffer from severe MR.

Bacterial oxidation of arsenite was first described in 1918 and thought to be a means of detoxification. It was not until 2000 that the first autotrophic arsenite-oxidising bacterium was isolated and shown to gain energy from arsenite oxidation. Since then a wide range of such bacteria has been isolated and the literature on the topic has grown rapidly. This book reviews the new understanding of the diversity and abundance of such organisms, their role in arsenic cycling in the environment, and their possible relations with arsenic-dependent diseases in humans.

John B. Morris and Dennis J. ShustermanTarget Organ Toxicology Series

Designed to provide practical information for the bench toxicologic pathologist working in pharmaceutical drug research, this book presents histopathologic descriptions of lesions noted in drug development. Each section contains information related to the lesion to assist the pathologist in making a determination of the origin of the lesion, the importance of the lesion, and the relevance for assessing human risk. Organ-based chapters include a description of light microscopic and electron microscopic of pathological lesions, differential diagnoses, and biological consequences, pathogenesis and/or mechanism of lesion formation, and expected clinical pathology correlates.



Toxicologic PathologyNonclinical Safety AssessmentEdited by

Pritam S. Sahota, James A. Popp, Jerry F. Hardisty, and Chirukandath Gopinath

This second edition of Principles of Toxicology Testing is a must-read for budding toxicologists worldwide. Nationally, toxicology programs have evolved from a traditional understanding of the chemistry and applied toxicity of chemicals and drugs to a more comprehensive understanding of toxicology and toxicology testing as independent entities. Consequently, the second edition starts with basic toxicological principles, including absorption, distribution, metabolism, and elimination of toxins, including chemicals and drugs. The book then continues with animal (in vivo) and in vitro toxicology testing methods associated with toxicological analysis and preclinical drug development.

The function and life span of endothelial cells have a large impact upon the quality and expectancy of an individual’s life. During low perfusion, the adaptation of different cells to hypoxia precipitates the aggressive progression of diseases. Although clinical studies have convincingly shown that endothelial dysfunction occurs whenever the biological functions or bioavailability of nitric oxide are impaired, in all these scenarios, the role of endothelial cell-destructive process cross-talk is poorly understood. This book focuses on the contribution of molecular mechanisms to endothelial dysfunction in related metabolic disorders.

Researchers have been working to find solutions to cure failing human liver function. Given the ability of stem cells to self-renew and differentiate into specialized cell liver types, they represent an attractive strategy to replace lost liver function. This book begins by outlining the complex nature of human liver disease and proceeds to examine the potential that stem-cell-based approaches have to offer.

Recent discoveries have highlighted the role of omega-3 fatty acid DHA in brain health and degeneration as well as the molecular biology of this fatty acid in neurons. Neurons and the DHA Principle explores this duality, proposing a new model for the cause of Alzheimer’s disease and other neurodegenerative disorders, in which DHA-enriched membranes of neurons become dysfunctional and energetically wasteful, triggering premature death of neurons. Using examples from the world of animal cells, the book illustrates how DHA acts both as an essential building block of neurons while also conspiring for their assassination during aging.

Scientific Basis of HealthcareAIDS and PregnancyEdited by



In many cultures, intra-uterine Insemination (IUI) is often the treatment of choice for subfertile couples, as it is less invasive and less expensive than other treatments such as IVF or ICSI. Nevertheless, when applied wrongly or without adequate know-how and monitoring, it is potentially harmful and can often result in outcomes that have great additional costs and dangers associated, such as multiple pregnancy. Multiple pregnancy is a major cause of extra cost and danger in many markets such as the U.S., and many of the lessons from IUI should be studied.
