The chapters in this volume of "Advances in Medicine and Biology,"
present the latest research in medical research. Chapter One
provides an overview of molecular biology approaches for Dengue
diagnosis and research in Brazil. Chapter Two identifies host
factor predictors and clinical determinants associated with Dengue
Fever versus Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever in an adult population.
Chapter Three summarizes the symptoms, risk factors, diagnostic
approaches, and treatment of gastro esophageal reflux disease
(GERD) in children, from a pulmonary perspective. Chapter Four
provides a brief overview on the role of some potential dietary
natural products in the prevention of GERD and treatment with
particular reference to the findings of the latest preclinical
investigations or clinical trials. Chapter Five investigates the
mechanism of onset of syringomyelia, a disease that produces
fluid-containing cavities in the parenchyma of the spinal cord,
using an adhesive spinal arachnoiditis model created by injection
of kaolin into the subarachnoid space. Chapter Six outlines the
approach to syringomyelia that starts with a functionally oriented
classification based on the underlying cause of the syrinx and its
accompanying specific cavitary pattern, and it also elucidates the
main pathophysiological mechanisms involved and suggested in the
formation and propagation of the cavitation. Chapter Seven
summarizes the prevalence and virulence characteristics of L.
pneumophila in aquatic environments including natural and
artificially-controlled water environments such as hot springs in
Japan. Chapter Eight discusses the basic biomechanical
characteristics and forces acting on the ankle under static
conditions and their influences on artificial total ankle
replacement designs. The authors of Chapter Nine suggest that the
adverse tissue reaction to aseptic loosening of arthroplasty can
serve as a reliable clinical model, which has a considerable
prevalence and adequately represents the toxicity of nanomaterials
in the human body. They also discuss how to better make use of
previous and ongoing models for nanotoxicology study. Chapter Ten
describes the nasal deformities associated with congenital clefting
and outlines the timing and techniques used to correct these
deformities. Chapter 11 presents the technique and results of
augmentation rhinoplasty with silicone implant in Asians. Chapter
12 discusses surgical treatment of resectable, borderline
resectable and locally advanced unresectable pancreatic cancers.
Chapter 13 presents a practically orientated overview of principal
problems of diagnostic and therapeutic pitfalls in pulmonary
embolism (PE) affecting elderly patients from the point of view of
a geriatrician. The final chapter examines the negative side
effects of Zolpidem, a medication often used for insomnia.
