Abstract

This book addresses the urgent need for implementing patient blood management (PBM) to combat iron deficiency, anemia, and related health challenges. It highlights the importance of multidisciplinary approaches in managing blood health among various groups, including pregnant women, newborns, children, and adolescents. The book discusses the prevalence and consequences of anemia, such as increased morbidity and mortality, and the economic burden on healthcare systems. It explores the principles and development of PBM, which aims to improve patient outcomes by reducing the need for blood transfusions and optimizing blood usage. The intended audience includes healthcare providers, policy makers, and health organizations. The book emphasizes the benefits of PBM in reducing complications, enhancing patient empowerment, and improving healthcare resource allocation.

Abstract

Environmental Microbiology: Advanced Research and Multidisciplinary Applications focus on the current research on microorganisms in the environment. Contributions in the volume cover several aspects of applied microbial research, basic research on microbial ecology and molecular genetics. The reader will find a collection of topics with theoretical and practical value, allowing them to connect environmental microbiology to a variety of subjects in life sciences, ecology, and environmental science topics. Advanced topics including biogeochemical cycling, microbial biosensors, bioremediation, application of microbial biofilms in bioremediation, application of microbial surfactants, microbes for mining and metallurgical operations, valorization of waste, and biodegradation of aromatic waste, microbial communication, nutrient cycling and biotransformation are also covered. The content is designed for advanced undergraduate students, graduate students, and environmental professionals, with a comprehensive and up-to-date discussion of environmental microbiology as a discipline that has greatly expanded in scope and interest over the past several decades.

Abstract

Medical professionals and researchers in the field of leukemias are faced with the need to continuously update their knowledge in a wide range of areas, ranging from fundamental molecular processes and mechanisms to a thorough understanding of clinical features and modern approaches to achieve maximum therapeutic results. This book does not have the ambition to present comprehensively the problems of leukemias, but it is an attempt to acquaint the audience of specialists involved in clinical management and experimental research with some modern advances and concepts in the three main directions: biology, clinical presentation and treatment. The biological aspects of the origin, development and therapy resistance of leukemias are within the scope of the first section. Comprehensive and concise information on the clinical assessment and treatment of leukemia patients is provided, as well as on some specific interdisciplinary clinical scenarios such as leukemic retinopathy, in the second section. Finally, challenges, current standards and recent advances in the therapy of acute leukemias comprise the third section of the book.

Abstract

Using an anthropologist's holistic approach, 'Thicker Than Water' traces the evolution of iron metabolism from the beginnings of the Earth to current human populations, focusing on the benefits and dangers of iron to women and their reproduction. Looking at sexism, racism, and poverty, this work demonstrates the intricate connections between the body and society, showing how inequalities in iron deficiency are created amongst women of the world.
