Centers discusses the impact scientific misconduct has in eight
complex case studies. Authors look at multifaceted mixtures of
improper behavior, poor communication, cultural issues, adverse
medical/health issues, interpersonal problems and misunderstandings
to illustrate the challenge of identifying and managing what went
wrong and how current policies have led to the establishment of
quasi legal processes within academic institutions. The book
reviews the current global regulations and concludes with a section
authored by a US federal court judge who provides his perspective
on the adequacy of current regulations and policies.

Are we satisfied with the rate of drug development? Are we happy
with the drugs that come to market? Are we getting our money's
worth in spending for basic biomedical research? In Translational
Systems Biology, Drs. Yoram Vodovotz and Gary An address these
questions by providing a foundational description the barriers
facing biomedical research today and the immediate future, and how
these barriers could be overcome through the adoption of a robust
and scalable approach that will form the underpinning of biomedical
research for the future. By using a combination of essays providing
the intellectual basis of the Translational Dilemma and reports of
examples in the study of inflammation, the content of Translational
Systems Biology will remain relevant as technology and knowledge
advances bring broad translational applicability to other diseases.
Translational systems biology is an integrated, multi-scale,
evidence-based approach that combines laboratory, clinical and
computational methods with an explicit goal of developing effective
means of control of biological processes for improving human health
and rapid clinical application. This comprehensive approach to date
has been utilized for in silico studies of sepsis, trauma,
hemorrhage, and traumatic brain injury, acute liver failure, wound
healing, and inflammation.
With at least 40% new or updated content since the last edition,
"Clinical Decision Support," 2nd Edition explores the crucial new
motivating factors poised to accelerate Clinical Decision Support
(CDS) adoption. This book is mostly focused on the US perspective
because of initiatives driving EHR adoption, the articulation of
'meaningful use', and new policy attention in process including the
Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information
Technology (ONC) and the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services
(CMS). A few chapters focus on the broader international
perspective. "Clinical Decision Support," 2nd Edition explores the
technology, sources of knowledge, evolution of successful forms of
CDS, and organizational and policy perspectives surrounding
CDS.
Exploring a roadmap for CDS, with all its efficacy benefits
including reduced errors, improved quality, and cost savings, as
well as the still substantial roadblocks needed to be overcome by
policy-makers, clinicians, and clinical informatics experts, the
field is poised anew on the brink of broad adoption. "Clinical
Decision Support," 2nd Edition provides an updated and pragmatic
view of the methodological processes and implementation
considerations. This book also considers advanced technologies and
architectures, standards, and cooperative activities needed on a
societal basis for truly large-scale adoption.
At least 40% updated, and seven new chapters since the previous
edition, with the new and revised content focused on new
opportunities and challenges for clinical decision support at point
of care, given changes in science, technology, regulatory policy,
and healthcare financeInforms healthcare leaders and planners,
health IT system developers, healthcare IT organization leaders and
staff, clinical informatics professionals and researchers, and
clinicians with an interest in the role of technology in shaping
healthcare of the future

GLOBAL EPIDEMIOLOGY OF CANCER Cancer is the second highest cause of
death in the United States, and a leading cause of death globally.
Our goals are to discuss the global epidemiology of various
cancers, with detailed information on their prevalence, incidence,
and clinical considerations. Epidemiology is the key to
understanding the mortality and morbidity of cancer, and how we can
prevent, diagnose, and treat the disease. Prevention of cancer is
essential for saving lives. Prevalence and incidence of cancer are
key factors that each government and population must be aware of.
Advances in the study of cancer occur on a regular basis, and this
book provides the latest insights about relationships between the
disease and stem cells, tumorigenesis, molecular interactions,
pathways, channels, and immunity. Global Epidemiology of Cancer:
Diagnosis and Treatment meets the needs of readers by providing
current information about epidemiology (including molecular
epidemiology), diagnosis, and treatment. Providing logical,
step-by-step information on various cancers, this book consolidates
all of the most up-to-date information and data from verified
studies on all different types of cancers in the United States and
throughout the world. Chapters are presented so that each includes
an overview, clinical manifestations, epidemiology,
pathophysiology, etiology and risk factors, diagnosis, treatment,
prevention, and prognosis. Global Epidemiology of Cancer: Diagnosis
and Treatment will be invaluable to graduate and postgraduate
students, including medical students; nurses; physician assistants;
residents in oncology; public health students and allied health
students.

Principles of Translational Science in Medicine: From Bench to
Bedside, Third Edition, provides an update on major achievements in
the translation of research into medically relevant results and
therapeutics. The book presents a thorough discussion of
biomarkers, early human trials, and networking models, and includes
institutional and industrial support systems. It also covers
algorithms that have influenced all major areas of biomedical
research in recent years, resulting in an increasing number of new
chemical/biological entities (NCEs or NBEs) as shown in FDA
statistics. New chapters include: Translation in Oncology,
Biologicals, and Orphan Drugs. The book is ideal for use as a guide
for biomedical scientists to establish a systematic approach to
translational medicine and is written by worldwide experts in their
respective fields.
