    Book Description

    Anatomy and physiology, a key part of the core curriculum in surgical technology, is the central basic science course around which the knowledge of surgical technology revolves. However, most conventional A&P books do not cover the surgical aspects of anatomy and physiology that the Core Curriculum for Surgical Technology requires. Surgical Anatomy and Physiology for the Surgical Technologist provides the basic concepts of A&P and applies them to practical surgery. Throughout the book, examples show how the anatomy and physiology of a particular body system or organ relates to a surgical procedure. This resource includes case studies, review questions, key terms, objectives for each chapter, and information boxes that tie specific anatomical elements to surgical practice. This book meets the requirements of the current edition of the Core Curriculum for Surgical Technology.

      Book Description

      Beginning with an exploration of nerve cells, this volume of the Encyclopedia of the Human Body discusses the parts of the central and peripheral nervous systems and how they work together in reflex responses and understanding sensory information. Major areas of the brain and the autonomic and peripheral nervous systems are covered. The five senses are discussed in relation to the nervous system. The history of the research on the nervous system is presented and the future of research in this field is considered. Current controversies and dilemmas of scientists performing this research are explored. Nervous system disorders, symptoms and treatments are explored, including multiple sclerosis and epilepsy. The reference concludes with information about maintaining a healthy nervous system, a comprehensive glossary, and resources for further information including Web sites and contact information for organizations and national health institutions. The set provides a complete, comprehensive reference source for students interested in the human body. Each book in the ten-volume set introduces and describes a specific body system, including the parts and function of each system, the history of discovery, related diseases and treatments, as well as possible future advances in research. Detailed illustrations and diagrams, including an eight-page color insert, provide a visual reference for written material.

          Book Description

          This study covers the latent demand outlook for pharmaceutical preparations affecting the central nervous system and sense organs across the regions of Greater China, including provinces, autonomous regions (Guangxi, Nei Mongol, Ningxia, Xinjiang, Xizang - Tibet), municipalities (Beijing, Chongqing, Shanghai, and Tianjin), special administrative regions (Hong Kong and Macau), and Taiwan (all hereafter referred to as “regions”). Latent demand (in millions of U.S. dollars), or potential industry earnings (P.I.E.) estimates are given across some 1,100 cities in Greater China. For each major city in question, the percent share the city is of the region and of Greater China is reported. Each major city is defined as an area of “economic population”, as opposed to the demographic population within a legal geographic boundary. For many cities, the economic population is much larger that the population within the city limits; this is especially true for the cities of the Western regions. For the coastal regions, cities which are close to other major cities or which represent, by themselves, a high percent of the regional population, actual city-level population is closer to the economic population (e.g. in Beijing). Based on this “economic” definition of population, comparative benchmarks allow the reader to quickly gauge a city’s marketing and distribution value vis-à-vis others. This exercise is quite useful for persons setting up distribution centers or sales force strategies. Using econometric models which project fundamental economic dynamics within each region and city of influence, latent demand estimates are created for pharmaceutical preparations affecting the central nervous system and sense organs. This report does not discuss the specific players in the market serving the latent demand, nor specific details at the product level. The study also does not consider short-term cyclicalities that might affect realized sales. The study, therefore, is strategic in nature, taking an aggregate and long-run view, irrespective of the players or products involved.

            Book Description

            This study covers the latent demand outlook for pharmaceutical preparations affecting the central nervous system and sense organs across the states, union territories and cities of India. Latent demand (in millions of U.S. dollars), or potential industry earnings (P.I.E.) estimates are given across some 5,000 cities in India. For each city in question, the percent share the city is of it’s state or union territory and of India as a whole is reported. These comparative benchmarks allow the reader to quickly gauge a city vis-à-vis others. This statistical approach can prove very useful to distribution and/or sales force strategies. Using econometric models which project fundamental economic dynamics within each state or union territory and city, latent demand estimates are created for pharmaceutical preparations affecting the central nervous system and sense organs. This report does not discuss the specific players in the market serving the latent demand, nor specific details at the product level.

                            Description:
                            A fast HPLC method has been developed for simultaneous determination of rifabutin and its synthesis precursors. The analytes are separated in 1.8min by means of a Kromasil 100 C"1"8 column (50mmx2.1mm i.d., 3.5@mm) at 30^oC. The mobile phase (A: 5mM KH"2PO"4 adjusted to pH 6.5 with KOH; B: acetonitrile) was pumped at a flow rate of 0.4mlmin^-^1 according to the fast gradient mode: 0min, 58% B; 0-0.4min, 95% B. Detection was by ultraviolet absorbance at 275nm. The method was validated in accordance with the International Conference on Harmonisation (ICH) guidelines and good accuracy, intermediate precision (@?4.6%) and linearity in the range 5-50mgl^-^1 were observed for all compounds. This method is sensitive (limits of detection ranged between 0.1 and 0.3mgl^-^1) and selective to quantify rifabutin and its synthesis precursors and could be used for in-process control.

                                                    I just got done watching the Pilot for the NBC Series "Medical Investigation" and they used the Medical Investigation that forms the Title Story in this collection. I read the book (and the others in the book's series) back in the 50s or 60s when they were first published and they are still readable and (as shown by the Show recycling the investigation) still interesting.

                                                    Recommended for those who want to try their hands at Medical Investigations and Forensics.

                                                    The essays are well-written, but of a different style than we are accustomed to expecting in tales of medical detection. The stories usually are told from the viewpoint of the epidemiologists and are centered around a particular outbreak. A history of each disease is discussed, occasionally including past outbreaks, and he throws in some literary quotations to boot. There are less discussions of ethics and the doctor's emotions than the current genre.

                                                    Two of the essays are not centered around a particular outbreak. One is a meditation on gout, and the other is about a visit to an antibiotics lab and factory. Also, a couple of the outbreak stories include how public health officials responded to the outbreaks in order to protect the public. Of especial interest is the tale of the mass immunization of New York City.

                                                    The timeframe of the book (late 1940's) shows occasionally: the author anticipates an antibiotic being found to cure every woe. Overall, it's aged quite well, and is still an interesting read.
