This book provides a comprehensive and up-to-date review of the
basic and clinical aspects of infections and infectious processes
that trigger or aggravate a variety of autoimmune and inflammatory
musculoskeletal disorders. It delivers a timely update on the
interactions between infection and rheumatic diseases in order to
provide clinicians with the tools they need for proper diagnosis
and treatment. The book is divided into five main sections. The
first examines the basic aspects of bacterial infections with a
discussion of molecular biology, the microbiome, various types of
bacteria that cause infection, and recent advances in biologic
therapy. The next section focuses on different forms of viral
arthritis including hepatitis arthritis, arthritis associated with
alpha viruses, and parvovirus-related arthritis. Subsequent
chapters then discuss arthritis caused by mycobacteria, fungi,
spirochete, and other miscellaneous arthritides. Following this are
various analyzations on reactive arthritis and infection-related
rheumatic diseases such as Whipple's Disease, SAPHO Syndrome,
rheumatic fever, and HIV-associated rheumatic manifestations.
Finally, the book closes with three chapters on external impacts on
infectious diseases such as climate change, vaccinations and
systemic lupus erythematosus. Infections and the Rheumatic Diseases
is an essential resource for physicians and related professionals,
residents, fellows, graduate students, and nurses in rheumatology,
clinical immunology, and internal medicine.
