Genetic disorders are far more common than is widely appreciated.
Abnormalities can range from a small mutation in a single gene to
the addition or subtraction of an entire chromosome or set of
chromosomes. Sound knowledge is required enabling individuals to be
better informed about genetic risks and reproductive options and
thus further aids in prevention of morbidity resulting from genetic
diseases and alleviation of the sufferings this would pose. The aim
here is to provide overall familiarity with Genetic Disorders, with
focus on its types and brief description on the diagnosis,
screening and treatment.
Temporomandibular joint of the jaw is a specialized joint which is
found on either side of skull and work in unison. In short it is
also reffered to as TMJ. The joint derives its name from two bones,
temporal bone of cranium and mandible of the lower jaw. A kind of
synovial joint having articular disc in between two bones which is
fibrocartilagenous in nature. This book deals with basic
introduction to joints and its anatomy, histology and development,
various classification systems of TMJ, mechanism of how this joint
works and various imaging techniques along with TMJ disorders and
its management.
Our approach to the way we look at genes or analyze DNA completely
revolutionized after Dr. Kary Mullis envisioned a means of copying
DNA in a chain reaction in 1983. Subsequently, he won the Nobel
Prize for inventing this powerful polymerase chain reaction (PCR)
technology which has now become a ubiquitous tool in every life
science laboratory, be it for basic or applied research, for
diagnostics.PCR is one of the most important techniques used to
study DNA and RNA obtained from a variety of tissue sources and
thus has become a "Cornerstone of Genome Sequencing Projects."
Today the extent to which immune-pathologic and molecular
pathologic techniques are employed varies greatly, but it is
conceivable that in the next decade, many of today's most
technically advanced methods of molecular analysis will become
standard practice. The aim here is to provide an overall
familiarity with PCR, details of some typical PCR experiments, and
a focus on issue useful to the field of genomic analysis.
