Описание:
Introduction to Mathematical Oncology presents biologically well-motivated and mathematically tractable models that facilitate both a deep understanding of cancer biology and better cancer treatment designs. It covers the medical and biological background of the diseases, modeling issues, and existing methods and their limitations. The authors introduce mathematical and programming tools, along with analytical and numerical studies of the models. They also develop new mathematical tools and look to future improvements on dynamical models.
After introducing the general theory of medicine and exploring how mathematics can be essential in its understanding, the text describes well-known, practical, and insightful mathematical models of avascular tumor growth and mathematically tractable treatment models based on ordinary differential equations. It continues the topic of avascular tumor growth in the context of partial differential equation models by incorporating the spatial structure and physiological structure, such as cell size. The book then focuses on the recent active multi-scale modeling efforts on prostate cancer growth and treatment dynamics. It also examines more mechanistically formulated models, including cell quota-based population growth models, with applications to real tumors and validation using clinical data. The remainder of the text presents abundant additional historical, biological, and medical background materials for advanced and specific treatment modeling efforts.
Extensively classroom-tested in undergraduate and graduate courses, this self-contained book allows instructors to emphasize specific topics relevant to clinical cancer biology and treatment. It can be used in a variety of ways, including a single-semester undergraduate course, a more ambitious graduate course, or a full-year sequence on mathematical oncology.
Vital Statistics: an introduction to health science statistics is a new Australian publication. This textbook draws on real world, health-related and local examples, with a broad appeal to the Health Sciences student. It demonstrates how an understanding of statistics is useful both in the real world, and in statistics exams.
Vital Statistics: an introduction to health science statistics is a relatively small and easy-to-read book that will painlessly introduce or re-introduce you to the statistical basics before guiding you through more demanding statistical challenges.
Written in recognition of Health Sciences courses which require knowledge of statistical literacy, this book guides the reader to an understanding of why, as well as how and when to use statistics.
It explores:
How data relates to information, and how information relates to knowledge
How to use statistics to distinguish information from disinformation
The importance of probability, in statistics and in life
That inferential statistics allow us to infer from samples to populations, and how useful such inferences can be
How to appropriately apply and interpret statistical measures of difference and association
How qualitative and quantitative methods differ, and when it's appropriate to use each
The special statistical needs of the health sciences, and some especially health science relevant statistics
The vital importance of computers in the statistical analysis of data, and gives an overview of the most commonly used analyses
From the Foreword "Students of health sciences are commonly required to have a basic understanding of statistics. For the more mathematically inclined, this will be easily acquired and there are many existing textbooks that will serve their needs well. However, for others learning about statistics will be an onerous task that may not seem directly relevant to their goal of becoming a health practitioner. To make statistics interesting, relevant and accessible for these students is a continuing challenge for their teachers. Having a suitable textbook that can motivate, inspire and explain complex concepts in plain language would be a big help. This new book by the McKenzie brothers does just that. It reflects many years of experience in explaining statistics to students and practitioners.I hope and expect that this new textbook will infect many health science students with the authors' obvious love of the topic and lead them to want to learn more. In particular, I hope that they see the value of statistics to evidence-based professional practice and become better practitioners as a consequence.?

Introduction to Health Care Quality explores the issues of quality management in today's health care environment, and provides clear guidance on new and perennial challenges in the field. The idea of 'quality' is examined in the context of a variety of health care situations, with practical emphasis on assessment, monitoring, analysis, and improvement. Students will learn how to utilize statistical tools, patient data, and more to understand new models of reimbursement, including pay for performance and value-based purchasing. They will also learn how to learn how to incorporate technology into everyday practice. Each chapter centers on an essential concept, but builds upon previous chapters to reinforce the material and equip students with a deeper understanding of the modern health care industry. Real-world situations are highlighted to show the intersection of theory and application, while cutting-edge methodologies and models prepare students for today's data-driven health care environment.
Health care quality is defined and assessed according to setting, with factors such as standards, laws, regulations, accreditation, and consumerism impacting measurement and analysis in tremendous ways. This book provides an overview of this complex field, with insightful discussion and expert practical guidance.
Health care today is worlds away from any other point in history. As the field grows ever more complex, quality management becomes increasingly critical for ensuring optimal patient care. Introduction to Health Care Quality helps students and professionals make sense of the issues, and provide top-notch service in today's rapidly changing health care environment.
