Book A Historical Look at the Department of Veterans Affairs Research and Development Program

Download or read book A Historical Look at the Department of Veterans Affairs Research and Development Program written by Department of Veterans Affairs and published by . This book was released on 2019-07-22 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: racing the path of progress in VA medical research does not involve drawing a straight line. It requires, rather, sketching a jagged streak forward-the many high points marked by significant findings and the development of medical advances, the few downticks indicating an occasional disappointment-the trend always upward toward promise and hope for improved health care and a better quality of life.The focus of this history is the innovation produced in this remarkable program; a few examples of what VA research has accomplished include the: First decisive trials of effective treatments for tuberculosis;Demonstration of the lifesaving value of treating hypertension;Development of the concept of CT scanning;Discovery and development of radioimmunoassay, facilitating measurements of previously impossible precision;Cooperative studies proving the efficacy of psychoactive drugs in stabilizing psychiatric disorders;Demonstration of the relationship between smoking and lung cancer, leading to initial warnings in the Report of the Surgeon General; andDevelopment of a practical, implantable cardiac pacemaker.Although this research program produced more than enough accomplishments to completely occupy its text, this history also attempts to depict the pioneers who carved that path of progress. In large measure, the history of VA medical research is their story

Book Sociomedical Perspectives on Patient Care

Download or read book Sociomedical Perspectives on Patient Care written by Jeffrey M. Clair and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 1993-08-10 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social change has placed new demands on the practice of medicine, altering almost every aspect of patient care relationships. Just as medicine was encouraged to embrace the biological sciences some 100 years ago, recent directives indicate the importance of the social sciences in understanding biomedical practice. Humanistic challenges call for changes in curative and technological imperatives. In this book, social scientists contribute to such challenges by using social evidence to indicate appropriate new goals for health care in a changing environment. This book was designed to stimulate and challenge all those concerned with the human interactions that constitute medical practice. To encompass a wide range of topics, the authors include researchers; practicing physicians from the specialties of family, general, geriatric, pediatric, and oncological medicine; social and behavioral scientists; and public health representatives. Cutting across disciplinary boundaries, they explore the ethical, economic, and social aspects of patient care. These essays draw on past studies of the patient-doctor relationship and generate new and important questions. They address social behavior in patient care as a way to approach theoretical issues pertinent to the social and medical sciences. The authors also use social variables to study patient care and suggest new areas of sociomedical inquiry and new approaches to medical practice, education, and research. Its cross-disciplinary approach and jargon-free writing make this book an important and accessible tool for physician, scholar, and student.

Book Viruses  Plagues  and History

  • Author : Michael B. A. Oldstone
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press, USA
  • Release : 2020
  • ISBN : 0190056789
  • Pages : 513 pages

Download or read book Viruses Plagues and History written by Michael B. A. Oldstone and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2020 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Here, my previous edition of Viruses, Plagues, & History is updated to reflect both progress and disappointment since that publication. This edition describes newcomers to the range of human infections, specifically, plagues that play important roles in this 21st century. The first is Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS), an infection related to Sudden Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS). SARS was the first new-found plague of this century. Zika virus, which is similar to yellow fever virus in being transmitted by mosquitos, is another of the recent scourges. Zika appearing for the first time in the Americas is associated with birth defects and a paralytic condition in adults. Lastly, illness due to hepatitis viruses were observed prominently during the second World War initially associated with blood transfusions and vaccine inoculations. Since then, hepatitis virus infections have afflicted millions of individuals, in some leading to an acute fulminating liver disease or more often to a life-long persistent infection. A subset of those infected has developed liver cancer. However, in a triumph of medical treatments for infectious diseases, pharmaceuticals have been developed whose use virtually eliminates such maladies. For example, Hepatitis C virus infection has been eliminated from almost all (>97%) of its victims. This incredible result was the by-product of basic research in virology as well as cell and molecular biology during which intelligent drugs were designed to block events in the hepatitis virus life-cycle"--

Book Fluorspar Deposits Near Meyers Cove  Lemhi County  Idaho

Download or read book Fluorspar Deposits Near Meyers Cove Lemhi County Idaho written by D. C. Cox and published by . This book was released on 1954 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fluorspar deposits near Meyers Cove, Lemhi County, Idaho, are localized along three groups of shear zones: one group strikes northeast and dips steeply northwestward, another strikes northeast and dips gently northwestward, and the third strikes northwest and dips gently southwestward. The country rocks are tuffs and flows of the Casto volcanics of Permian (?) age and the Challis volcanics of late Oligocene or early Miocene age. The known deposits are in a belt about 3 miles long and 2 miles wide and crop out at altitudes between 5,100 feet and 7,200 feet above sea level. The principal vein minerals are fluorite, chalcedony, and barite. The fluorite occurs as lodes, crusts around fragments of rock, and replacements of fine breccia. The lodes range in size from veinlets to vein zones several hundred feet long and as much as 20 feet wide and contain ore that ranges in grade from 40 percent to 85 percent CaF2 ; the average grade is about 50 percent CaF2.

Book Obesity Treatment

    Book Details:
  • Author : David B. Allison
  • Publisher : Springer Science & Business Media
  • Release : 2012-12-06
  • ISBN : 1461519012
  • Pages : 275 pages

Download or read book Obesity Treatment written by David B. Allison and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Treatment outcome has certainly improved since Stunkard and McLaren-Hume (1959) reviewed the literature and found that less than 25% of obese patients lost 20 pounds or more and less than 5% lost 40 pounds or more. However, one of the few points on which almost all obesity researchers agree is that to date, our results are quite modest and we are generally unsuccessful in promoting effective weight maintenance among obese persons. As the title of a more recent article, "Improving long-term weight loss: Pushing the limits of treatment," (Brownell & Jeffrey, 1987, [emphasis added]) suggests, many believe that we have pushed our current treatment paradigms to the limit. It was with this background in mind that we organized the meeting from which these proceedings issue. The purpose of the three day international meeting was to evaluate the current knowledge base and conceptual paradigms of obesity treatment and to suggest directions for future research and clinical practice. Rather than simply for research reporting, the meeting was primarily for research generation. All speakers were established scientists in the field who were asked to summarize our state of knowledge in a given area rather than present the results of their latest research. Great efforts were taken to ensure that panel discussions occupied a central portion of the conference, and that the questions "What else do we need to know?" and "How do we find it out?" were consistently addressed.
