This expanded and revised Second Edition of Urticaria and Angioedema aids physicians in understanding the pathomechanisms involved in urticaria to ensure appropriate diagnosis and follow-through treatment.New to the Second Edition:updated content on cellular and clinical practice paradigmsnew chapters on epidemiology, diagnostic techniques, acute urticaria, non-hereditary angioedema, systemic mastocytosis, and hypersinophilic syndromethe latest screening tests for autoimmune urticariathe latest data on autoimmune mechanisms that initiate chronic urticaria and angioedema in some patients, and abnormalities of signal transduction that may be found in both the autoimmune and "idiopathic" subgroups

Offering details on the pharmacology of itch, techniques of itch evaluation, and neurogenic itch, this reference presents new concepts in the neurophysiology and central mechanisms of itch, animal models of itch, and processing of histamine itch in the human cerebral cortex. The text clarifies itch in systemic and skin disease, exploring renal itch, uremic pruritus, lichen amyloidosis and more.
