Download or read book Coronavirus Disease 19 COVID 19 Different Models and Treatment Strategies written by Kamal Niaz and published by Bentham Science Publishers. This book was released on 2021-11-01 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book volume-2 proposal has been classified into Part IV: Models for SARS-CoV-2 and Part V: Treatment Strategies for SARS-CoV-2. With the emergence of new coronavirus variants, epidemiology, different host tropism permits a thorough analysis of their evolution and acquired adaptability to their host which need different animal models and treatment approaches. No studies are complete without animal models closely related to human physiology to replicate the disease and observe the pathology conditions as in human cases. Such animal models play a vital role in virus pathogenesis and prepare a therapeutic immune response. Here describe bio-engineered transgenic mouse model inserting with specific genes, or CRISPR-Case9 gene-editing tool has been used previously for SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV. The chapter will deal with culture techniques or cell lines for COVID-19—also histopathology of COVID-19, essential proteins that up or down-regulate SARS-CoV-2. The last chapter of this part will describe other diseases having similar signs and symptoms and their differentiation. There is no specific treatment available to date, just symptomatic therapy. However, scientists will elucidate effective antiviral drugs in clinical trials, phytochemicals, photomedicine such as ultraviolet A & B, homemade remedies, blood plasma transfusion, stem cell therapy, and computational approaches in vivo and in vitro trials. This book will appear as a baseline for academicians, scientists, and health professionals as still, research is going to overcome this outbreak of COVID-19, the novelty of best animal models, and find an effective treatment. However, just a single book proposal like this wouldn't have flourished without enthusiasm and determined publishers' and investigators' strength to take time from their busy schedule and subsidize on time. We thank the whole investigators who contributed, directly and indirectly, to bring it to reality.

Starting in the end of 2019, December, this strain of Corona virus was first isolated from Wuhan, China. The never before identified strain of Corona virus in man, was named as novel Corona virus (2019-nCoV). The infection caused has now been named as Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID19). With the physicians still to learn about its behaviour and with no cure at hand, the disease turned into pandemic very soon. World Health Organization instructed all information regarding COVID-19 accessible, so as to doctors and health workers all over the world can use it for better management of the patients globally. Association of Physicians of India has also followed the foot-steps of WHO and has committed itself for the integration of knowledge among the nation and its members regarding COVID-19 through this book Clinical Updates on COVID- 19. As severe forms of the infection have been encountered by the individuals suffering from co-morbidities, this book has addressed Covid 19 infection in such patients with great details. Hope this book will be helpful for all the practicing physicians and resident doctors in combating this Pandemic all over the world.

Download or read book Assessing COVID 19 and Other Pandemics and Epidemics using Computational Modelling and Data Analysis written by Subhendu Kumar Pani and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-12-13 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book comprehensively covers the topic of COVID-19 and other pandemics and epidemics data analytics using computational modelling. Biomedical and Health Informatics is an emerging field of research at the intersection of information science, computer science, and health care. The new era of pandemics and epidemics bring tremendous opportunities and challenges due to the plentiful and easily available medical data allowing for further analysis. The aim of pandemics and epidemics research is to ensure high-quality, efficient healthcare, better treatment and quality of life by efficiently analyzing the abundant medical, and healthcare data including patient’s data, electronic health records (EHRs) and lifestyle. In the past, it was a common requirement to have domain experts for developing models for biomedical or healthcare. However, recent advances in representation learning algorithms allow us to automatically learn the pattern and representation of the given data for the development of such models. Medical Image Mining, a novel research area (due to its large amount of medical images) are increasingly generated and stored digitally. These images are mainly in the form of: computed tomography (CT), X-ray, nuclear medicine imaging (PET, SPECT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasound. Patients’ biomedical images can be digitized using data mining techniques and may help in answering several important and critical questions related to health care. Image mining in medicine can help to uncover new relationships between data and reveal new and useful information that can be helpful for scientists and biomedical practitioners. Assessing COVID-19 and Other Pandemics and Epidemics using Computational Modelling and Data Analysis will play a vital role in improving human life in response to pandemics and epidemics. The state-of-the-art approaches for data mining-based medical and health related applications will be of great value to researchers and practitioners working in biomedical, health informatics, and artificial intelligence..

Download or read book COVID 19 in Clinical Practice written by Flavio Tangianu and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-08-21 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book assesses the main features of COVID-19 from a clinical point of view, based on observations made during the disease epidemic in Northern Italy, one of the most affected areas in the world (the region has been the epicenter of the global pandemic for more than a month), and the first region outside China facing overwhelming numbers of cases. With no practical guidelines in place, Italian doctors were called to fight against an unknown disease. For the first time in modern history, healthcare workers and decision-makers had to find rapid solutions to a life-changing health crisis with no evidence-based recommendations or procedures in place to guide their actions. Sharing the lessons learned from this experience, and offering practical tips on implementing future programs for pandemic preparedness, the book is a valuable tool for medical practitioners and health-policy-makers wanting to better understand the complexity of the current and future global health crises.
