Download or read book Progress in Heritable Soft Connective Tissue Diseases written by Jaroslava Halper and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2014-01-18 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is a reference handbook focusing on diseases like Marfan syndrome, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, Loeys-Dietz syndrome and other heritable soft connective tissue diseases. The book presents detailed information for both basic scientists and for clinicians seeing patients. It is also a stepping stone for new investigations and studies that goes beyond the facts about the composition and biochemistry of the connective tissue and extracellular matrix, as the authors connect individual components to specific aspects of various soft tissue disorders and to the actual or potential treatment of them. Progress in Heritable Soft Connective Tissue Diseases features very prominent physicians and scientists as contributors who bring their most recent discoveries to the benefit of readers. Their expertise will help clinicians with proper diagnosis of sometimes elusive and uncommon heritable diseases of soft connective tissues. This book also offers an update on the pathophysiology of these diseases, including an emphasis on unifying aspects such as connections between embryonic development of the different types of connective tissues and systems, and the role of TGF-beta in development and physiology of soft tissues. This new set of data explains, at least in part, why many of these disorders are interconnected, though the primary pathophysiological events, such as gene mutations, may be different for each disorder.

Download or read book The Dermatomyositis Sourcebook written by J. P. Smithson and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-07-21 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dermatomyositis (DM) is a type of connective tissue disorder that worsens over time. Connective tissue connects, supports, or separates different types of tissues and organs. With dermatomyositis, problems with the connective tissue cause muscles and skin to degenerate. Other areas of the body may be affected, such as the lungs, heart, joints and esophagus.This book is intended for the newly diagnosed dermatomyositis patient and their caregivers. Chapter two outlines the many symptoms that accompany dermatomyositis including skin rash, muscle aches and internal organ dysfunction. The third chapter introduces the causes of the condition; although the exact cause of dermatomyositis isn't know, what is known is that it is an autoimmune disease, possibly genetic in origin. Diagnostic tests are discussed in detail in Chapter 4. The next chapter covers treatment options available; there isn't a “cure,” but many treatments are available to treat the symptoms of the disease, from steroids to surgery. You'll also find information about clinical trials and organizations to contact for support and further information about this often debilitating disease. We hope you find this book useful in your journey with dermatomyositis.
