Описание: Medical and genetic information from medical research must be protected against unauthorized access and replication. This book is a practical guide demonstrating how coding methods, providing the required high degree of data protection, can be integrated into respective applications dealing with patient related medical and genetic data.
Описание: A practical and methodological approach to the statistical logic of biostatistics in the field of health research Focusing on a basic understanding of the methods and analyses in health research, Introduction to Biostatistical Applications in Health Research with Microsoft® Office Excel® provides statistical concepts for interpreting results using Microsoft Office Excel. The book emphasizes the application of methods and presents the most common methodological procedures in health research, which includes multiple regression, ANOVA, ANCOVA, logistic regression, Cox regression, stratified analysis, life table analysis, and nonparametric parallels. The book is constructed around a flowchart that outlines the appropriate circumstances for selecting a method to analyze a specific set of data. Beginning with an introduction to the foundational methods of statistical logic before moving on to more complex methods, Introduction to Biostatistical Applications in Health Research with Microsoft® Office Excel® also includes: Detailed discussions of how knowledge and skills in health research have been integrated with biostatisticalmethods Numerous examples with clear explanations that use mostly real–world health research data provide a better understanding of the practical applications Implements Excelgraphic representations throughout to help readers evaluate and analyze individual results An appendix with basic information on how to use Excel A companion website with additional Excel files, data sets, and homework problems as well as an Instructor s Solutions Manual Introduction to Biostatistical Applications in Health Research with Microsoft® Office Excel® is an excellent textbook for upper–undergraduate and graduate–level students in biostatistics and public health courses. In addition, the book is also an appropriate reference for both health researchers and professionals. Robert P. Hirsch, PhD, is on the faculty for the Foundation for the Advanced Education in the Sciences within the Graduate School at the National Institutes of Health. He is also a retired Professor of Epidemiology and Biostatistics and Adjunct Professor of Statistics at The George Washington University. Dr. Hirsch is the author of numerous books in the field of health research and practice.

Описание:
The recent increase in the incidence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and especially of Crohn's disease is not a myth. Much speculation has been made regarding the effect of some known and some unidentified risk factors which might account for this steady rise but one cannot deny the contribution of the faster and more effective spread of information between scientists and the development of more sophisticated diagnostic techniques which enable us to categorize the disease in a more comprehensive way. Inflammatory bowel diseases come to the attention of the physician with different faces and different scenarios and even the same patient may show up with different patterns in various regions of the world.
When the clinical course seems not to be going well despite appropriate medications, a search for unexpected factors such as concomitant IBS, intercurrent infections and drug toxicity such as aminosalicylates should be considered. The impact of parasites, notably amoeba or giardia, and bacterial or viral infections deserve special attention in some parts of the world such as the eastern Mediterranean, North Africa, Middle East and Asia.
There is no single truth regarding the recognition and management of IBD. In this regards the old dictum "there is no disease but the patient" should be the golden rule. Nowadays, more complicated Crohn's disease cases at relatively young ages are not unusual. Various clinical and extraintestinal manifestations have been seen rarely until now. The evolution of the therapeutic armamentarium is now a double-edged sword since "more drugs" may mean "more side-effects, less compliance and a more critical attitude of health authorities towards the cost of treatment." Education of the patient and the family, creation of empathy and a positive rapport with the patient and a careful analysis of confounding/contributing factors to the disease behaviour are essential elements of optimal therapy of IBD patients.
This book contains the proceedings of Falk Symposium 159, entitled IBD 2007 -- Achievements in Research and Clinical Practice, held in Istanbul, Turkey, on May 4--5, 2007, where opinion leaders with worldwide reputations discuss IBD and related issues in a less well-known part of the world with respect to prevalence, disease behaviour and patient characteristics, as well as the difficulties faced in differential diagnosis and management.
