Unavoidably Unsafe for Children
An in-depth guide for parents as they struggle to make informed decisions about vaccines for their children. In Unavoidably Unsafe, Dr. Edward Geehr and Dr. Jeffrey Barke confront the prevailing beliefs surrounding childhood vaccines with unflinching scrutiny and bold insight. As seasoned physicians, they acknowledge the revered status vaccines hold in modern medicine while bravely questioning their safety and efficacy. From the historical triumphs of polio eradication to the complexities of modern immunization schedules, Geehr and Barke unravel the layers of vaccine development and regulation. They shed light on the unintended consequences of vaccine mandates and the erosion of informed consent in the face of mounting pharmaceutical influence. Drawing on decades of clinical experience and exhaustive research, the authors challenge conventional wisdom by addressing critical issues such as: The proliferation of childhood vaccines and their impact on public health The National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act and its implications for vaccine safety The symbiotic relationship between pharmaceutical companies and regulatory agencies The shortcomings of Emergency Use Authorization and its implications for vaccine safety The presence of potentially harmful additives in vaccine formulations A fresh look at possible links between vaccines and autism Cautionary considerations regarding mRNA vaccines and their suitability for children Practical guidance for evaluating the risks and benefits of vaccines for individual children The significance of proper informed consent and patient advocacy in vaccination decisions Unavoidably Unsafe is not an indictment of vaccines but a call to arms for informed decision-making and transparency in healthcare. Geehr and Barke aim to empower parents, guardians, and healthcare providers with the knowledge needed to navigate the complex landscape of childhood immunization responsibly. In a rapidly evolving medical landscape where uncertainties abound, Unavoidably Unsafe serves as a beacon of clarity and integrity, reaffirming the importance of critical thinking and patient-centered care in safeguarding the health and well-being of future generations.
Another Magic Mountain
Kibong'oto Hospital, opened in 1926, is an East African tuberculosis treatment center located on the slopes of Mount Kilimanjaro. Its history is crucial to understanding tuberculosis in Tanzania and, more broadly, in Africa. With the hospital as a point of departure, Christoph Gradmann presents a history of this disease that engages with local and regional contexts rather than with international elite science and health policies. The book addresses key questions about the African experience with tuberculosis: What did it mean to do clinical science on tuberculosis in colonial and postcolonial contexts? Along which trajectories did medical practice and research evolve in a place where international advances in medical science were sometimes heard of only faintly and where resources could be scarce? How did a large hospital with several hundred beds dedicated to the treatment of just one condition figure in the development of national and regional health systems? How did Kibong'oto Hospital, a pride of colonial health governance, transition after Tanzania gained independence? How did treating and researching tuberculosis change throughout the twentieth century in an African hospital dedicated to that condition? How did research at the hospital contribute to tuberculosis-control strategies on national and international levels? The book is based on the hospital's unique archive: its surviving library of thousands of case summaries. Since 1926, this library has documented an enormous number of patient lives, staff careers, diagnoses, treatments, clinical trials, and much more. For today's readers, the library provides insight into a history of clinical medicine in Africa, for which very few comparable archives exist. Gradmann supplements this site-specific research with material from national and international archives, as well as interviews with former staff involved in that history. The book's four chapters offer perspectives on colonial epidemiological research in the interwar years; on late colonial healthcare development plans and the arrival of modern drug therapies; on the role of a national tuberculosis hospital in a newly independent country; and on the history of tuberculosis control in an age of economic crisis, HIV, and emergent global health-treatment programs. Finally, Gradmann discusses what the history of a large hospital can add to today's tuberculosis research, control policy, and historiography.

Coagulation Disorders - Innovative Developments in Diagnostic and Therapeutic Approaches
Coagulation is a crucial and essential defense mechanism that is typically well-balanced and effective under normal circumstances. However, since Virchow's Triad was published in the mid-19th century, its elements have inspired an overwhelming amount of innovative and cutting-edge research, much of which was initiated at the bedside and later unraveled in the laboratory. These approaches have been multidisciplinary, driven by out-of-the-box thinking, keen observation, and problem-solving. The book explores the latest advancements in various coagulation disorders, examining their metabolic and biochemical root causes, both inherited and acquired. It aims to highlight the benefits of new and innovative developments, presenting a high-quality collection of thematic chapters. This work results from multidisciplinary and coordinated scientific efforts, offering the latest updates in the field. Therefore, this book provides a unique opportunity to stay updated on current and emerging diagnostic and therapeutic approaches to coagulation disorders and abnormalities. It explores overshoots and deficiencies, both inherited and acquired while embracing out-of-the-box thinking and exploring the unknown.
Metabolites as Signals in Immunity and Inflammation
Metabolites as Signals in Immunity and Inflammation describes the revolution in the definition of the word metabolism, highlighting changes in thinking about the whole field of immunology. These changes occur thanks to breakthrough experiments in basic research, and with the help of new technologies that allow for the testing of immunology hypotheses. In recent years, a substantial number of findings have been made around immunometabolism. What is emerging is a complex interplay between metabolic reprogramming and immunity, which is providing an extra dimension to our understanding of the immune system in health and disease.
Carbohydrate Nutrition
Carbohydrate Nutrition discusses the nutritional functionality of foods in addressing the current metabolic disease epidemic. It begins by introducing the sources and structures of various carbohydrates, including starch, human milk oligosaccharides, polyols, arabinoxylan, beta-glucan, and cellulose, along with their function in the small intestine and colon. The book offers a comprehensive examination of carbohydrates, covering their chemistry, classification, digestion and health implications. The importance of prebiotic carbohydrates, such as human milk oligosaccharides and dietary fibers like cellulose, arabinoxylans, and beta-glucan is also discussed. Each chapter is authored by leading experts in the field making Carbohydrate Nutrition is a valuable resource for nutrition researchers, food scientists, food chemists, and those studying related topics. Readers can apply these insights to the design and development of foods with improved carbohydrate nutrition.
Early Detection of Alzheimer's Disease
Early Detection of Alzheimer's Disease: Biological and Technological Advances aims to introduce to a wide audience the high global priority problem of detecting AD prior to dementia onset. According to the Alzheimer's Association, 5.8 million Americans are living with Alzheimer's and care costs will cost the nation approximately $290 billion (2019 Alzheimer's Disease Facts and Figures). With the failure of recent AD drug trials, many hypothesize that by the time symptoms appear, it is too late to be treated. Early detection can offer benefits such as more choice of medications, ability to participate in clinical trials, more time for family and for care planning. This book outlines potential solutions to the above problem using opportunities arising from the technology revolution, advances in neuroscience, and molecular biology. Most importantly, it discusses a paradigm shift from a reactive to a proactive diagnostic approach, aiming to detect disease before occurrence of symptoms. Topics covered include the use of sensing technologies (e.g. smartphones, smartwatches, Internet of Things) to detect early disease-related changes, the application of data science (machine learning/AI) to extract otherwise invisible disease features from these datasets and the potential to personalize diagnosis based on tracking changes in individual behaviours. Advances in blood-based biomarkers, brain imaging, and the potential for early diagnosis to aid interventions (lifestyle, dietary, pharmacological) to delay future development of dementia are also discussed.
