Scientific Foundations and Applied Techniques

Navigated Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation in Neurosurgery

This book explores the critical issue of cardiovascular prevention (CVP) in socioeconomically disadvantaged populations, highlighting the stark disparities in access to basic health-preserving tools. Despite significant technological advances in CVP over the past decades, many individuals in low-income countries and deprived segments of high-income nations still lack access to essential care for conditions like diabetes, hypertension, and high cholesterol. This volume sheds light on the prevalence and outcomes of major cardiovascular risk factors—such as obesity, heart failure, and stroke—in these underserved communities and explores potential remedial measures.Contributors from diverse regions bring their extensive research expertise to examine the current status of CVP globally. The chapters cover a range of topics, including the prevalence of risk factors and suggestions for improving cardiovascular health in resource-limited settings. Unlike other publications that focus on cutting-edge developments like polygenic risk scores and new therapies, this book emphasizes fundamental CVP tools that can be applied to the largest segments of the world's population. Readers will gain insights into effective strategies for weight control, healthy diets, smoking cessation, and more.This comprehensive resource is invaluable for students and professionals across various fields, including primary care providers, cardiologists, public health experts, social workers, and economists. It is also suitable for graduate and undergraduate readers interested in public health and healthcare disparities. To ensure broad accessibility, an open access option is&nbsp;available for those with limited financial resources.

Cardiovascular Prevention&nbsp; (CVP) has included important technological advances and determined improvements in morbidity and mortality since the last 70 and 60 years. However, in populations with socioeconomic limited resources even basic health preserving tools such as access to a primary care provider and basic drug therapy for diabetes mellitus, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol are not within the reach of many. There is indeed limited information on the level of CVP available in low-income countries and even in similar segments of deprived populations from high income nations. More information is needed in the prevalence and outcomes in these socioeconomic groups on the major determinants of cardiovascular disease and death: hypertension, diabetes, obesity, heart failure, coronary heart disease, stroke, peripheral vascular disease, and multi-organ involvement. Moreover, in many countries (and not only in those with limited socioeconomic resources) basic preventive measures are still lagging behind (weight control, healthy diet, sedentary lifestyles, smoking cessation, alcohol use). In this book, contributors will review the prevalence of these risk factors as well as discuss possible remedial measures.In the different chapters, scientists from different countries and regions and with extensive research done in CVP in their respective fields will give their views on the status of CVP and suggest feasible remedial steps. Currently, there are many publications on the exciting and more recent developments in CVP, and the new directions undertaken (polygenic risk scores, primordial prevention, new antilipidemic and anti-inflammatory therapies, etc.). This book, in contrast, will go precisely in the opposite direction, defining the most basic and known effective CVP tools applied in the largest segment of the world’s population.This will be a valuable resource for students and professionals from different specialties, such as primary care providers, cardiologists, registered nurses, public health professionals, social workers, and economists. It will also be of interest to readers in the graduate and undergraduate levels. To ensure broad accessibility, an open access option is&nbsp;available for those with limited financial resources.

Global Challenges in Cardiovascular Prevention in Populations with Low Socioeconomic Status

A collection of 50 ECGs

ECG Interpretation of Wide QRS Complex Tachycardia 

Clinicians have a variety of diagnostic methods available for evaluating a child with an arrhythmia. The ECG and Holter ECG remain the cornerstones for a good diagnostic and a correct management. Many pediatric cardiologists have some experience in Holter ECG interpretation, but many are still uncertain about their ability to recognize normal variants and pathological rhythms. This book is written specifically for pediatric cardiologists and provides a short and practical review of the issue. Following a brief introduction of the theoretical basis of the Holter ECG, the chapters give a systematic method to interpretation of ECG signals. Several print screens from the different softwares are included to assist users in more confidently diagnosing arrhythmias. The book's second part provides a comprehensive collection of real-life cases and Holter ECG tracings in an easy-to-use manner. The cases cover the most common arrhythmias seen in pediatrics and will assist build the skills needed to analyse the Holter ECG quickly and effectively in both infants and older children.

This new edition of&nbsp;Percutaneous Intervention for Structural Heart Disease provides a comprehensive overview of the percutaneous techniques and technologies most commonly used in structural heart interventions. It aims to update readers not only on current standard practices but also on emerging topics such as percutaneous treatment of tricuspid regurgitation and paravalvular leak closure: recent advances are thoroughly addressed, including the expanded use of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in patients with severe aortic stenosis regardless of surgical risk, and the implementation of percutaneous edge-to-edge mitral valve repair for functional mitral regurgitation. &nbsp;It also emphasizes patient selection, preoperative evaluation, device choice, and strategies for optimizing outcomes. Interventional procedures for aortic stenosis, mitral regurgitation, left atrial appendage closure, patent foramen ovale closure, and closure of interatrial and interventricular defects are presented in a step-by-step format, accompanied by detailed and informative illustrations.The contributing authors are recognized experts with extensive experience in both catheterization laboratories and surgical operating rooms.Ideal for cardiologists, cardiac surgeons, and interventional radiologists, this book is an invaluable resource for those seeking to stay abreast of the latest developments in the field. Its expert authors, with extensive laboratory and surgical experience, ensure that readers gain practical insights and a deep understanding of the evolving landscape of structural interventional cardiology.

The second edition of this book offers an overview of the percutaneous techniques and technologies most frequently employed in structural heart intervention, focusing on patient selection, preoperative evaluation, choice of available devices and outcome optimization. Interventional procedures for aortic stenosis, mitral regurgitation, left atrial appendage closure, patent foramen ovale closure, and closure of interatrial and interventricular defects are presented in a step by step fashion, and paralleled by informative illustrations. This new edition of Percutaneous Intervention for Structural Heart Disease aims to adjourn the reader on structural heart intervention not only as per current standard practice, but also on uprising topics such as percutaneous treatment of tricuspid regurgitation and paravalvular leak closure.

Provisional text
This book provides a comprehensive review of innovative diagnostic methods for prostate cancer, with a particular emphasis on the development of PET radiopharmaceuticals. The author has had the privilege to introduce several tracers into clinical routine practice, including Na18F, 18F-FCH, 18F-FACBC, 68Ga-PSMA11, 18F-PSMA-1007, and 18F-DCFPyL. Thus, indications in various prostate cancer subgroups are discussed in detail, weighing the pros and cons in clinical practice. In the authors´ practice radiation therapy has been more important and surgical applications; therefore, PET based dose planning is presented in detail. Furthermore, the author has closely followed the development of radiopharmaceutical treatments, particularly in the context of bone pain palliation using radiopharmaceuticals, such as 89SrCl2, 186ReHEDP, 153SmEDTMP, 117mSnDTPA, and 223RaCl2, and targeted treatments (177Lu-PSMSA-617, 177Lu-PSMA-I&amp;T and 225Ac-PSMA).
Thanks to his experience, the author facilitated the set-up of targeted treatments in various countries: Baltic and Nordic countries, elsewhere in Europe, North America (Canada), and Africa (e.g. Ghana). The author's involvement in promoting therapy tourism to Finland further highlights his breadth of knowledge and practical experience.
This book offers valuable insights into the evolving landscape of diagnostic methods and radiopharmaceutical treatments for prostate cancer.
