Book Description
Les maladies systémiques regroupent un cadre hétérogène de maladies (connectivites, vascularites, granulomatoses…) dont la pathogénie est caractérisée par une atteinte de plusieurs organes. Bien qu’il s’agisse pour la plupart de maladies orphelines, ces pathologies sont susceptibles d’intéresser tous les médecins du fait de leur polymorphisme clinique. L’atteinte ophtalmologique est fréquente dans bon nombre de ces maladies, principalement en rapport avec une atteinte inflammatoire ou vasculaire. Elle constitue souvent une clé pour le diagnostic et peut mettre en jeu le pronostic fonctionnel en raison du risque de cécité. La sémiologie oculaire des maladies systémiques et les moyens d’explorations ophtalmologiques sont souvent mal connus des internistes ou des spécialistes d’organes. Inversement, les maladies systémiques sont l’objet de nombreuses interrogations de la part des ophtalmologistes. De ce constat est né Œil et Maladies systémiques qui présente, en 50 chapitres : • les principaux syndromes ophtalmologiques et les moyens d’explorations, destinés principalement aux non-ophtalmologistes • l’expression ophtalmologique des maladies systémiques (connectivites et vascularites, certaines maladies infectieuses et autres affections multiviscérales) ainsi que les aspects diagnostiques, pronostiques et thérapeutiques. Le professeur Pascal Sève, interniste, et le professeur Laurent Kodjikian, ophtalmologiste, tous deux rattachés à hôpital de la Croix-Rousse à Lyon, ont coordonné l’ouvrage dont les rédacteurs sont issus des diverses spécialités concernées : ophtalmologistes et internistes bien sûr, mais également spécialistes d’organes tels que dermatologues, néphrologues, neurologues, etc., tous référents reconnus dans leur domaine d’expertise. Ce livre apporte des réponses utiles et précises aux praticiens confrontés aux atteintes ophtalmologiques des maladies systémiques. Il intéressera donc les ophtalmologistes, internistes, rhumatologues, neurologues, pneumologues et autres spécialistes d’organes.

Book Description
The only book that covers the multiple ways in which ADHD is complicated by other psychiatric and learning disorders in both children and adults, ADHD Comorbidities: Handbook for ADHD Complications in Children and Adults features comprehensive, research-based information on ADHD and its full range of coexisting syndromes. Contributing researcher-clinicians, familiar with the complications that additional disorders pose, summarize in accessible language what is currently known about ADHD and its comorbidities, from preschool age to adulthood. These authors describe how ADHD leads to different profiles at different stages of development and how to adjust treatment strategies for both ADHD and additional disorders to reduce the impairments resulting from their combination. The book offers a new paradigm for understanding ADHD, viewing it not as a simple behavior disorder but as a complex developmental impairment of executive functions in the brain. This important handbook gives developmental context to ADHD by describing how symptoms at preschool onset differ from those of older age at onset. Clinicians will find practical help for patients whose ADHD appears in conjunction with 11 other syndromes -- from mood disorders to developmental coordination disorder -- and acquire valuable guidance on adapting and adjusting medications and other interventions to optimize treatment effects for the wide diversity of complex cases that embody ADHD.

Book Description
Aspergillus is among the economically most important fungal genera. Aspergillus species are used in the fermentation industry for the production of various enzymes, organic acids and pharmaceutically important compounds, and in Oriental food fermentations. At the same time, Aspergilli can cause opportunistic infections, and produce a range of secondary metabolites also known as mycotoxins which are harmful to humans and animals. Due to its importance in biotechnology, medicine and foods, Aspergilli are in the forefront of studies dealing with various aspects of fungi. This is well illustrated by the fact that projects aiming at sequencing the genomes of nine species are in progress. In this book, some aspects of the biology of this genus are covered, including the biotechnological importance of Aspergilli, their role in mycotoxin contamination of food products including grapes and coffee products, and implications of biodiversity of Aspergillus populations for agriculture. Among the clinical aspects, the role of Aspergilli in eye infections, the mechanisms of antifungal drug resistance and their molecular identification in the clinical setting are covered. Several chapters deal with the genomic aspects of Aspergilli, including the genomics of pigment biosynthesis, extracellular enzyme production, aflatoxin biosynthesis and the identification of genes taking part in sexual processes. Additional chapters cover the variability and inheritance of mycoviruses in Aspergilli and multilocus approaches are given to clarify the evolutionary history of the genus. Finally, a new taxonomic classification of the various Aspergillus sections is given based on multilocus sequence data.
