Book Anti Tumor Necrosis Factor Therapy in Inflammatory Bowel Disease

Download or read book Anti Tumor Necrosis Factor Therapy in Inflammatory Bowel Disease written by G. Rogler and published by Karger Medical and Scientific Publishers. This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The introduction of anti-tumour necrosis factor (TNF) antibodies into the treatment of patients with IBD about fifteen years ago has dramatically improved the quality of life for patients with severe Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. But despite the fact this therapeutic approach has been around for quite some time, there has been no comprehensive overview to date. The book at hand aims to amend this shortcoming, presenting for the first time a thorough overview on TNF action, mechanisms of anti-TNF therapy, treatment strategies, side effects, monitoring, biosimilars and related issues. Including state-of-the-art information and research results, this publication will be a valuable source of information and guide clinicians to the optimal treatment decision, improving the quality of life of patients with inflammatory bowel disease. Moreover, rheumatologists or even dermatologists might also find this book of interest.

Book Advanced Therapy of Inflammatory Bowel Disease  Volume 2

Download or read book Advanced Therapy of Inflammatory Bowel Disease Volume 2 written by Theodore M. Bayless and published by PMPH-USA. This book was released on 2014-05-14 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now published in two volumes to accommodate new chapters on the many advances in understanding and treatment options, this set of volumes represents the definitive reference on inflammatory bowel disease, a spectrum of diseases that is receiving increasing attention as our understanding of the etiological factors increases and diagnostic tools are refined. Basic research accelerated at the beginning of this decade and is now yielding new, more targeted treatments than were available just a few years ago. Volume 1 is on IBD and Ulcerative Colitis, and Volume 2 is on IBD and Crohn's Disease. All areas that were covered in the 2nd edition have been expanded and updated. New sections include the rapidly expanding knowledge of genetics and the role of the intestinal flora and environmental factors in etiology and pathogenesis. Among the 168 chapters, there are 20 on biologic therapies and 30 on surgical management. The consultant/authors clearly state their approach to important issues, such as the duration of immunomodulator and of anti-TNF-a use and the options for managing isolated low-grade dysplasia. A strong focus on the individual patient is woven throughout both volumes, including the benefits and risks of potentially life-altering therapies and surgeries. Entire sections detail concerns about the well-being of each person. This book provides information for health professionals who help both pediatric and adult patients navigate through the lifelong shadow of a chronic, probably genetically determined ordeal.

Book Targets of Treatment in Chronic Inflammatory Bowel Diseases

Download or read book Targets of Treatment in Chronic Inflammatory Bowel Diseases written by H. Herfarth and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2003-07-31 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Book Therapeutic Advances in Inflammatory Bowel Disease  Current Therapies and Future Directions

Download or read book Therapeutic Advances in Inflammatory Bowel Disease Current Therapies and Future Directions written by Giulia Roda and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2023-10-23 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), are chronic and progressive diseases. Long-term complications are demolition surgery and colon-rectal cancer (CRC). A treat-to-target approach aims to modify the natural course of these diseases. Targets are pre-defined therapeutic goals demonstrated to prevent end-organ disfunction and disability in the long-term period. According to the Selecting Therapeutic Targets in Inflammatory Bowel Disease (STRIDE) indications, mucosal healing (MH) and clinical remission are the main targets in IBDs. Recently, the concept of remission and evidence on new targets included histological remission and transmural healing as future new targets. It remains controversial whether achieving these targets is associated with significantly better long-term disease outcomes. In this Research Topic, we aim to systematically review current evidence and future perspectives on therapeutic targets in IBD including mucosal and transmural healing.
