Protein folding dysfunctions like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's Diseases present intractable medical challenges: drug treatments are, at best, palliative, failing to alter ultimate disease course. Effective intervention will require a deeper understanding of protein folding and its regulation, particularly in view of a sixfold rise in the inflation-adjusted cost of bringing drugs to market since 1950. As a consequence, the pharmaceutical industry has sharply curtailed research on a range of poorly-understood afflictions, including Alzheimer's Disease. That is, in all likelihood, there will not be effective drugs for many protein folding disorders anytime soon, and, if produced, the costs will be prohibitive. Here we follow protein folding and its failure from the cellular to social levels of organization, finding a strong foundation for effective public health interventions against the early onset of disease.

The culmination of more than ten years of research by the authors, this book describes for the first time ever the scientific basis and clinical applications of medical biochemistry, a fundamental paradigm shift in medicine. This paradigm shift is so revolutionary that it has been called the Neustadt-Pieczenik Paradigm, which is the fusion and clinical applications of biochemistry, thermodynamics, physiology, fractal enzymology, nutritional medicine and laboratory testing to identify and correct the underlying causes of many diseases that are considered genetic in nature (eg, Phenylketonuria) and those that are not considered genetic (eg, mature onset asthma, depression, fatigue). In this new medicine, doctors must reject the failed, purely symptomatic treatments they learned in medical school and focus on learning and treating the underlying biochemical causes of disease. From the first documented clinical observations of biochemical individuality in the early 1900s to the development of sophisticated biochemical tests, the authors provide a detailed and stunning analysis of a new medical model to help millions and cure our ailing healthcare system. They uniquely contrast the conventional medical approach with the functional biochemical approach through extensive case studies on depression, arthritis, migraine headaches, seizures, rashes and more. This book is a must-read for physicians, medical students, nutritionists, and anyone looking to take charge of their health.

Metal ions are poorly known whereas they sometimes play a role more significant than vitamins. Moreover they control many diseases, such as the zinc salts in dermatology. Another example is the recent discovery of platinum co-ordination compounds' anti-tumor activity (cisplatine). There is a growing volume of literature too. The chemistry of metal ions has provided new insights into DNA, proteins and membrane chemistry, as well as the physiopathology of diseases. This book contains the proceedings of 2nd International Symposium on Metal Ions in Biology and Medicine, Athens, May 1992.

Das vorliegende Buch ist aus dem Wunsch seiner Kollegen und Mitarbeiter entstanden, Herrn Prof. Dr. Gerd Friedmann zum 60. Geburtstag eine Freude zu bereiten. Hinter dem Konzept steht die Absicht, den Einsatz bildgebender Verfahren in der Diagnostik des akuten Abdomens stichwortartig zu skizzieren und dem Roentgenologen in Fachausbildung und Berufsausubung ein Denk gerust fur den Alltag an die Hand zu geben. Dies erscheint um so notwen diger als die bildgebenden Verfahren in einer explosiven technischen Ent wicklung begriffen sind und jahrlich grundlegend Neu es entsteht und hinzu kommen wird. Der sinnvolle und rationelle Einsatz dieser diagnostischen Methoden wird allein durch die Vielfalt der Moeglichkeiten zwingend. Die richtige Auswahl und die Reihenfolge ihrer Anwendung sind zunehmend fur das Wohl des Patienten und eine wirtschaftlich vernunftige Handhabung von Bedeutung. So mag es auf den ersten Blick erstaunlich sein, wenn der Chirurg als einziger Nichtroentgenologe im Kreise der Autoren erscheint und ein Geleit wort spricht. Dies kann seine Begrundung aber darin haben, dass gerade der operativ tatige Mediziner der naturgegebene Partner des Roentgenologen ist und sich dort, wo die Medizin ernst genommen wird, zwangslaufig ein enges kooperatives Verhaltnis ergeben muss. Vor allem ist der Chirurg in der Lage, Roentgenbefunde zu verifizieren oder Irrtumer aufzudecken. Wie kaum ein anderer ist seinerseits er auf eine exakte Artdiagnose, eine praoperative anatomisch-pathologische Beschreibung, die Darstellung von Nachbar schaftsbeziehungen und funktionelle Beurteilungen, beispielsweise durch angiographische Methoden, angewiesen.
