Hematologi

Det är mycket som behöver samverka i kroppen för att vi ska känna oss friska och i balans. Lymfsystemet spelar en avgörande men ofta förbisedd roll i detta och påverkar allt från immunförsvar till sömn, vikt och hudhälsa. Det transporterar bort slaggprodukter, stödjer immunförsvaret och spelar en nyckelroll för vätskebalansen. När flödet stagnerar kan det leda till trötthet, svullnad och viktuppgång. Med hjälp av massage, andningsövningar, hudvård och rätt kost visar boken hur vi kan återställa balansen och främja läkning. Den innehåller också viktig information om lymfödem, myxödem och lipödem och förslag på fysiska övningar och kostomställningar som kan ge lindring vid dessa tillstånd.

Karin Björkegren Jones är journalist, yogalärare och utbildad lymfmassör. Hon driver bloggen Yoga, mat och meningen med livet och är en välkänd hälsoprofil med flera uppskattade böcker inom naturlig hälsa och återhämtning. I denna uppdaterade och utökade utgåva av hennes succébok "Omstart" visar Karin hur vi kan ta tillbaka kontrollen över vår hälsa.

Betyg 4/5

Lymfsystemet är centralt för cirkulationen i kroppen och hälsan. Särskilt kvinnor kan drabbas av olika former av ödem med vätskeansamlingar i kroppen, som lymfödem, myxödem, lipödem. Vården kan främst erbjuda lymfmassage och kompressionsstrumpor, men i denna bok beskrivs fler möjligheter härutöver. Mycket kan göras på egen hand, och särskilt med egen hand.

I boken föreslås olika rörelseövningar, fokus på andningen, kost och massage för att mjuka upp spända strukturer och öka lymfflödet. Teoretiska förklaringar till sjukdom och läkande metoder hämtas såväl från nyare medicinsk forskning som från ayurveda, yoga och andra här mer alternativa tankesätt. De praktiska råden är emellertid knappast kontroversiella och inget föreslås som en quick fix. Texten är lättläst och rikligt illustrerad med foton av Anneli Hildonen på författaren i olika positioner. Den givna läsekretsen är personer som söker goda råd till egenvård för olika former av ödem eller andra hälsoproblem med lymfsystemet i fokus.

I kroppen hänger allt ihop. Tarmen, lymfsystemet, levern, fascian allt påverkar varandra och trötthet, värk och smärta är tydliga signaler från kroppen om att något är fel. Men vad kan vara orsaken till dessa signaler? Och hur ger man kroppen det den behöver för att må bra?

I Lymfan, levern & livet ger Anna Hallén Buitenhuis och Lise Benberg en bred och lättillgänglig kunskapsbas om kroppens olika system. Med hälsotips, lathundar och ett helhetsperspektiv på hälsa hjälper de dig att hitta din unika lösning för att må ditt allra bästa.

I boken finns ett nyskrivet avsnitt om fascia, liksom en inspirerande introduktion till lymfatisk yoga med QR-koder som länkar till videor med olika yogapositioner. Boken avslutas med en länk till ett komplett yogapass på 75 minuter som gör underverk för kroppens återhämtning.

The most practical and efficient guide to the diagnosis and management of blood disorders – now in full color

200 full-color illustrations!

Hematology in Clinical Practice is a succinct, cutting-edge guide to the diagnosis and treatment of disorders of red blood cells, white blood cells, and hemostasis, and the use of blood components for transfusion. Each disease state is discussed in detail, incorporating the pathophysiology, clinical features, up-to-date laboratory testing, and current management strategies into a comprehensive and practical approach to hematologic disorders.

Features:

Includes:

Hematology and Coagulation is a clear and easy-to-read presentation of core topics and detailed case studies that illustrate the application of hematopathology knowledge to everyday patient care. In order to be successful, as well as to pass the American Board of Pathology examination, all pathology residents must have a good command of hematopathology, including the challenging topics of hematology and coagulation. Hematology and Coagulation meets this challenge head on.

This basic primer offers practical examples of how things function in the hematopathology clinic as well as useful lists, sample questions, and a bullet-point format ideal for quick pre-board review. This book provides only the most clinically relevant examples designed to educate senior medical students, residents and fellows and "refresh" the knowledge base, without overwhelming students, residents, and clinicians.

Lanzkowsky's Manual of Pediatric Hematology and Oncology, Sixth Edition, is a comprehensive book on patient management, replete with algorithms and flow diagrams on diagnosis and management. Reflecting the considerable advances in the treatment and management of hematologic and oncologic diseases in children, the sixth edition of this successful clinical manual has been entirely updated to incorporate all current treatment protocols, new drugs, and management approaches. Its concise and easy-to-read format will enable readers to make accurate diagnoses and permit them to treat patients without having to reference larger medical textbooks.

Based on the new standards of genetic classification and prognostic information that have arisen in the past five years, the sixth edition includes two new chapters (Diagnostic, Molecular, and Genomic Methodologies for the Hematologist, Transfusion Medicine) and several new expanded chapters that were previously sections in consolidated chapters (Myelodysplasia, Myeloid Leukemias, Lymphoid Leukemias, Hemolytic Anemia, and Disorders of Coagulation).

Chelation Therapy in the Treatment of Metal Intoxication presents a practical guide to the use of chelation therapy, from its basic chemistry, to available chelating antidotes, and the application of chelating agents. Several metals have long been known to be toxic to humans, and continue to pose great difficulty to treat. These challenges pose particular problems in industrial settings, with lead smelting known to be associated with hemopoietic alterations and paralyses, and the inhalation of mercury vapor in mercury mining being extremely detrimental to the central nervous system.

Clinical experience has demonstrated that acute and chronic human intoxications with a range of metals can be treated efficiently by administration of chelating agents. Chelation Therapy in the Treatment of Metal Intoxication describes the chemical and biological principles of chelation in the treatment of these toxic metal compounds, including new chelators such as meso-2,3-dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) and D,L-2,3-dimercapto-1-propanesulfonic acid (DMPS).

Management of Hemostasis and Coagulopathies for Surgical and Critically Ill Patients: An Evidence-Based Approach offers a concise guide to a sub-specialty of transfusion medicine from the clinical laboratory perspective. It focuses on the clinical tests that may be done during preoperative assessment, intraoperative, and postoperative assessment and management of surgical or critically ill patients. Management of hemostasis and coagulopathies is approached from an evidence-based perspective-the coagulation status of a patient according to the laboratory test results. Algorithms and decision-support software, designed by the authors, guide clinicians with an additional tool to base transfusion dosage on specific laboratory results, including the use of an artificial neural network for predicting more accurate blood use.

Chapters reflect the experience of all three authors who have successfully applied the algorithm for better patient management as well as decreased wastage of expensive blood products, from both the clinical laboratory/pathology and clinical medicine perspective. This book will appeal to a broad section of clinical laboratory and medical practitioners from hematopathology, to internal medicine, surgery, and anesthesiology. For hematopathologists and pathologists who are involved in laboratory medicine and transfusion medicine, this book will help them understand the proper utilization of blood products and how to avoid unnecessary waste and costs for the hospital. For general surgery practitioners, this book will provide practical guidelines on how to use blood products rationally for best medical practice. Internists will also gain insight from this book, learning which patients are at higher risk of bleeding during surgery so that they can alert their clinical colleagues.

Congenital and Acquired Bone Marrow Failure is a comprehensive guide to congenital and acquired bone marrow failure in adult and pediatric patients. Chapters are divided into two sections, acquired aplastic anemia and inherited bone marrow failure syndromes. Content ranges from the basic, to the translational, and from the epidemiology of acquired aplastic anemia and telomere biology, to the management, treatment, and supportive care of pediatric, adult, and geriatric patients.

Contributors are world leading experts in the field of bone marrow failure. The book is required reading for residents, fellows, clinicians, and researchers across hematology, oncology, pathology, bone marrow transplantation, pediatrics, and internal medicine.

Linked by Blood: Hemophilia and AIDS recounts the factors responsible for the widespread infection of people with hemophilia by Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)-contaminated blood and offers a prescription for addressing the challenges of future viral epidemics. The book describes the impact of AIDS on people with hemophilia, their families, and caregivers.

The collection, processing, and distribution of blood in the early years of the HIV epidemic are described, including the failure of regulatory agencies to promulgate effective rules to safeguard the blood supply. The contributions of individuals and organizations that mitigated the epidemic are recognized. Linked by Blood presents recommendations for addressing the myriad medical, social, and economic challenges posed by blood-borne viral infections (AIDS, Ebola, MERS) that periodically sweep through large segments of our population.

Atlas of Hematopathology: Morphology, Immunophenotype, Cytogenetics, and Molecular Approaches, Second Edition, will appeal to both a wide range of people undergoing training in a variety of medical fields and practicing non-hematopathologists. For clinicians, fellows and residents, correct diagnosis (and therefore correct treatment) of diseases depends on a strong understanding of the molecular basis for the disease, making this book a crucial resource. This atlas contains hundreds of high-quality color images that mirror the findings that fellows and clinicians encounter in practice. In addition, it provides information in a quick, simple and user-friendly manner, attracting both those in training and non- experts.

Residents, fellows, practicing clinicians, and researchers in pathology, hematology and hematology/oncology will find this a useful resource.
