Multiple Risk Factors in Cardiovascular Disease

Strategies of Prevention of Coronary Heart Disease, Cardiac Failure, and Stroke

By: Giovanni Lorenzini Foundation (Milan),International Symposium on Multiple Risk Factors in Cardiovascular Disease

The issue of interaction of risk factors in cardiovascular disease is timely and of clinical relevance. This book is a collection of the scientific contributions to the 4th International Symposium on Multiple Risk Factors and Cardiovascular Disease: Strategies of Prevention of Coronary Heart Disease, Cardiac Failure, and Stroke, and addresses the role of simultaneous risk factors in patients. Because patients with two or more risk factors are at very high risk for developing cardiovascular diseases, special care should be taken in the choice of appropriate therapeutic intervention. Risk factors are also discussed from the point of view of the biochemist and the pharmacologist by addressing the mechanisms underlying the onset of hypertension, hyperlipoproteinemia, hypercoagulability, and the possibility of therapeutic intervention. This book will therefore be of value to the biochemist, pharmacologist, and clinical pharmacologist, as well as to specialists in the field of cardiovascular medicine in order,to keep up-to-date with current knowledge in this fast moving field of research.

Neuro-Oncology

By: Pietro Paoletti,Università di Pavia,Istituto de ricovero e cura a carattere scientifico. Policlinico S. Matteo,Fondazione Giovanni Lorenzini

This volume focuses on the present state of biological research as well as the diagnosis and treatment of nervous system neoplasia. The section concerning Biology and Diagnosis describes the aspect related to brain tumour classification and neuro-radiological diagnosis. Papers on oncogenes and growth factor expression are also included. The role of surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy, as well as new therapeutic approaches, is described in the section on Therapy of Gliomas. Neuro-Oncology presents an up-to-date review of research on biological studies and the treatment of meningiomas, neuronomas, craniopharingiomas, pinealomas, metastatic tumours, and cerebral tumours in children written by some of the most respected neurosurgeons in the world. The book is recommended not only to neurosurgeons and neurologists, but also to all researchers actively working in the field of neuro-oncology.
