Download or read book Advances in Vascular Medicine written by David Abraham and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-02-01 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding the many complex cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying human vascular diseases is essential in improving the treatment of this important and wide-ranging group of diseases that affect a large proportion of the world po- lation. This book is based on lectures presented at an International Vascular Biology Workshop held in London and chaired by Professor Dame Carol Black. The c- tents are complemented by some invited chapters, all written by world experts in areas of basic science and clinical medicine highly relevant to vascular biology and disease. We are particularly grateful to Professor Arshed Quyyumi, Professor of Medicine and Cardiology at Emory University, who with his research group and clinical colleagues, has provided a substantial contribution to this book. In common with our previous book – Vascular Complications in Human Disease: Mechanisms and Consequences published by Springer in 2008, our aim with this book is to highlight some of the established relationships between basic science and clinical medicine, and to outline new and exciting fields of research and practice in vascular biology and pathobiology. There are two sections: Basic Science of Vascular Biology and Clinical Aspects of Vascular Biology. In the first section, dealing with basic science, we have included three important growth areas: “Genetics and Gene Therapy” cover approaches to gene therapy and delivery systems, “Animal Models to Study Vascular Disease” with chapters on animal models of scleroderma, animal models of atherosclerosis, and finally on the endothelin system.

Download or read book Translational Vascular Medicine written by David Abraham and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-11-19 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Translational medicine underpins vascular medicine. It is fundamental to understanding how we treat patients with vascular disease and more importantly, how to prevent it. It is the rationale for drug design and production. Vascular medicine and translational medicine will take over and become the main reason for referring patients to hospital. Therefore, hospital-based clinicians working with basic scientists need to know about translational medicine, which educates and informs them about vascular medicine and how management should be based. This book is a primer for translational vascular medicine and discusses the evolving and exciting areas of basic science applied to vascular medicine. The book is based on the third vascular biology conference held at The Royal College of Physicians in 2008. It provides a large amount of new basic and clinical information and the contributors are world leaders.

It offers an updated view of the current state of microvascular biology and research, and thus supports the discovery of new therapeutic agents and procedures directed at several CNS disorders.

Download or read book Vascular Disease Diagnostic and Therapeutic Approaches written by Michael R. Jaff, DO and published by Cardiotext Publishing. This book was released on 2011-04-01 with total page 602 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Patients with vascular disease offer great challenges to physicians of multiple backgrounds. The rapid improvement in multimodal imaging and the growth of endovascular strategies for treatment of peripheral vascular disease have resulted in an explosion in interest in these patients. But patients and physicians often misdiagnose vascular disease as normal signs of aging, resulting in presentation to specialists at the end stage of the disease process. This textbook, edited by two recognized experts in the field, is designed to offer unique and comprehensive information on the diagnostic approach to and state-of-the-art treatment of arterial and venous diseases. This multispecialty textbook will be a critical addition to the practicing clinician's library. "This is a well-conceived and well-executed text dealing with the full gamut of peripheral vascular diseases, their diagnosis, and treatment... While other texts are similar with respect to content and intended audience, Vascular Disease is unique at least in its organization of the subject matter. By uniting pathophysiology, risk factors, diagnosis, and medical and surgical treatment of each anatomic distribution in one chapter of section, the editors have provided a facile reference. A particular chapter will inform the physician's or nurse's care of an individual patient, without that medical profession having to skip around - using the index - to garner or refresh their expertise in, say, the 'contemporary management of superior vena cava syndrome.'" - Benjamin M. Jackson, MD (Ann Thorac Surg 2011;92:1555)
