Описание: Directed primarily towards health care professionals outside of the United States, this work provides an illustrated introduction to osteopathic manipulations of the skull. It gives the practitioner or the student of osteopathy the basic knowledge of biomechanics and cranial pathomechanics.
Описание: The term Vitamin D designates a group of closely related seco-steroids with antirachitic activity. The two most important members of these are ergocalciferol
(vitamin D2) and cholecalciferol (vitamin D3). About 80 per cent of the vitamin D supply in man is produced in the skin and only 20 per cent is provided by nutrition.
The first
analogue of Vitamin D, dihydrotachysterol, was developed in the 1930s and used in the treatment of primary or secondary hypoparathyroidism. It then took 40 years to learn that Vitamin
D was not the biologically active principle for healing bone disease. It has to be hydroxylated in the liver at position 25 to build 25-hydroxycholecalciferol and then finally in the kidney at
position 1a to become 1a, 25-dihydroxycholecalciferol [= 1a, 25-(OH)2-D3].
Further generations of Vitamin D analogues have since been developed. The most important of
these are the so-called D hormone 1a, 25-(OH)2-D3 (= calcitriol) and its analogue alfacalcidol (= 1a-OH-D3) which are highly effective drugs for the treatment of renal bone disease.
Further successful indications for active Vitamin D analogues include hypoparathyroidism and osteomalacia.
With regards osteoporosis, the role of an insufficient Vitamin D
supply or impairment in activation was underestimated for a long time. A breakthrough was achieved with studies showing that the prevalence of mild to moderate vitamin D deficiency
was very high and increasing with age.

Описание: Now in its fourth edition Manipulation of the Spine, Thorax and Pelvis continues to support the practitioner in acquiring and refining their skills on safely using high-velocity low-amplitude (HVLA) thrust techniques. This trusted and highly visual resource - now with 275 images and access to a website with 56 'technique' videos - advocates an approach that uses minimal leverage to achieve a cavitation in a safe, comfortable and effective manner. The new edition addresses the important issues surrounding patient consent and discusses safety issues in the broader context of relative risk.
New sections include appropriate use of manipulation when treating radiculopathy and musculoskeletal conditions in pregnant women and children. It also further encourages the practitioner to reflect on how they are performing manipulative techniques and thus focus on improving their skills. Step-by-step coverage of 41 commonly used manipulation (HVLA) thrust techniques supported by 275 photographs/drawings and 56 videos Concise technique summaries provide an innovative review process A troubleshooting section in which difficulties with technique application can be addressed Comprehensive review of spinal kinematics and spinal positioning for manipulation techniques Examines evidence relating to cavitation and the clinical effectiveness of spinal manipulation Access to companion website - www.spinethoraxpelvis.com - containing: video bank of 56 videos (13 new) demonstrating HVLA thrust techniques from Part B of the book image bank of all 275 images from the book 2-colour throughout with over 30 new images Clinical history, presentation and examination for patients presenting with cervical artery dissection Addresses the important issues surrounding patient consent Additional research and guidelines that support the: use of HVLA thrust techniques use of spinal manipulation in the treatment of radiculopathy, pregnant women and children
