This new volume provides a concise overview of the most basic and exciting chapters of comparative medicine with regards to physiology and function in healthy individuals. The book includes core concepts in anatomy and physiology in human and animal models, which are key to understanding comparative medicine and to making contributions to research in this area. While writing this book, the authors were in constant interdisciplinary dialogue. They aim to contribute to improvements in quality of life for human and animal patients.
Erika Jensen-Jarolim and Manuel L. Penichet 1. 1 Background Infectious diseases, being the major burden in the history of mankind worldwide th until the beginning of the 20 century, were important triggers in the understanding of immunological mechanisms. In contrast to infectious diseases, reports of all- gies and cancers were less common, but increased tremendously within the last century. Based on the US mortality data of the National Center for Health Statistics, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 2009, a recent report from the American Cancer Society indicated that the number of cancer deaths increased approximately from 100,000 to 550,000 per year between 1930 and 2006, paralleling the increase of the total population during this period. Leading causes of death from cancer are lung and bronchus cancer, in men prostate cancer, and in women breast c- cer [1, 2]. Normalization to population size shows that the cancer death rate for most malignancies has been generally stable, although the mortality rate of certain malignancies, such as lung and bronchus cancer, has increased over the last 50 years [1-3]. In allergy, the situation is less clear, because for the time period around the turn of th the 19 century, only imprecise information is available. However, within the last 30 years the incidences of allergies has doubled not only in industrial countries, but in developing countries as well [4].

Dieses Skriptum gibt einen umfassenden Ein- und Uberblick uber die pathophysiologischen Prinzipien als Basis fur Klinik, Diagnostik und Therapien von Erkrankungen des Gastrointestinaltraktes. Zudem geht die Autorin ausfuhrlich auf die Beteiligung des mukosalen Immunsystems ein, wobei auch basale Prinzipien der Allergologie und Immunologie verstandlich prasentiert werden. Besonderer Wert wurde auf die anschaulichen Illustrationen gelegt, die fast selbsterklarend, durch weiter ausfuhrende Texte erganzt sind. Das Skriptum ist abgestimmt auf die Vorlesungs- und Prufungsinhalte des Faches "Funktionelle Pathologie." Daruber hinaus stellt es eine nutzliche Erganzung zum "Block 13: Ernahrung und Verdauung" des neuen Medizincurriculums dar, sowie fur die Dr.med.sci und Ph.D. Studienprogramme der Medizinischen Universitat Wien. Aber auch StudentInnen anderer Disziplinen, wie etwa Biologie oder Ernahrungswissenschaften, sowie DiatassistentInnen werden darin fundig werden."
