This handbook is the first comprehensive book of its kind reviewing the clinically relevant current status of tissue kallikrein and kallikrein-related peptidases research. Since several members of the KLK family are key players in (patho-)physiological processes, structural, functional, and regulatory studies are under way to develop new strategies to prevent and treat disorders to which individual members of the KLK protease family contribute significantly. The goal of this book is to inform clinicians, physician scientists and researchers about the prominent role of the multifaceted and interactive KLK system in normal physiology and pathological organ function.

Various KLK proteins and their encoding genes have attracted increased attention among scientists and clinicians worldwide since they represent very interesting and functionally distinct biomarkers, particularly, in cancer. This book reviews the role of kallikrein-related peptidases (KLKs) in a wide range of cancers, including lung, prostate, breast and ovarian cancer. It provides clinicians, physician scientists and researchers with a comprehensive overview on the clinical relevance of KLK expression in various malignancies.

In den 70er Jahren wurde die differentielle Psychologie von einer Krise uberschattet, der Konsistenzkontroverse. Zur Debatte stand, ob Menschen sich konsistent genug verhalten, um mittels allgemeiner Eigenschaftsbegriffe charakterisiert werden zu konnen. Der Moderatorvariablenansatz versprach eine Losung des Konsistenzproblems. Er geht davon aus, dass Menschen sich im Grad ihrer Verhaltenskonsistenz unterscheiden. Manche Personen lassen sich anhand von Traits besser, andere weniger gut beschreiben. In dem vorliegenden Buch wird erstmals eine umfassende Bilanz des Moderatorvariablenansatzes in der Einstellungs- und Personlichkeitsforschung vorgelegt. Drei Arten von Moderatorvariablen werden behandelt: qualifizierende Merkmale von Eigenschaften wie die Zentralitat einer Einstellung; Personlichkeitseigenschaften mit begrenzter Moderatorwirkung, etwa Angstabwehr; Personlichkeitseigenschaften als unspezifische Konsistenzmoderatoren, z. B. die Selbstuberwachungstendenz. Schliesslich wird erortert, ob die Befunde der Moderatorforschung es rechtfertigen, Konsistenz als eine generalisierte Personlichkeitseigenschaft anzusehen.

Computational intelligence techniques are gaining momentum in the medical prognosis and diagnosis. This volume presents advanced applications of machine intelligence in medicine and bio-medical engineering. Applied methods include knowledge bases, expert systems, neural networks, neuro-fuzzy systems, evolvable systems, wavelet transforms, and specific internet applications. The volume is written in view of explaining to the practitioner the fundamental issues related to computational intelligence paradigms and to offer a fast and friendly-managed introduction to the most recent methods based on computer intelligence in medicine.
