Drug Bioavailability
Estimation of Solubility, Permeability, Absorption and Bioavailability
(Methods and Principles in Medicinal Chemistry)
The peroral application (swallowing) of a medicine means that the body must first resorb the active substance before it can begin to take effect. The efficacy of drug uptake depends on the one hand on the chemical characteristics of the active substance, above all on its solubility and membrane permeability. On the other hand, it is determined by the organism's ability to absorb pharmaceuticals by way of specific transport proteins or to excrete them. Since many pharmacologically active substances are poorly suited for oral intake, a decisive criterion for the efficacy of a medicine is its so-called bioavailability.Written by an international team from academia and the pharmaceutical industry, this book covers all aspects of the oral bioavailability of medicines. The focus is placed on methods for determining the parameters relevant to bioavailability. These range from modern physicochemical techniques via biological studies in vitro and in vivo right up to computer-aided predictions. The authors specifically address possibilities for optimizing bioavailability during the early screening stage for the active substance. Its clear structure and comprehensive coverage make this book equally suitable for researchers and lecturers in industry and teaching.
"Potential anatomical spaces" have attracted surgeons in the past and in recent years. Due to the development of modern imaging techniques and the advent of minimally invasive surgery, access to these spaces has become a real surgical option. The purpose of this book is to document the challenges related to "potential anatomical spaces", traditionally described as "hidden" spaces. The spread of video-assisted surgery and its application in the management of diseases involving organs or anatomical structures placed in the "potential spaces" (neck, mediastinum,
pro-peritoneum and retro-peritoneum, subfacial space of the leg, and axilla), has rendered their surgical anatomy less abstract.
from the inner of the book:
THE SEMANTICS OF SPACES Despite the conventions of common usage, space is nolonger simply a three-dimensional, topographical concept. Today,the meaning of 'space' depends upon the realm in which it is used. This scanning technique, which is based on the continous transition of the patient and the simultaneous rotation of the tube-detector system, allows the acquisition of body volumes. – Enhanced z-axis spatial resolution: the speed of multislice scanning allows one to cover large volumes with thin slices.
This book attempts to summarize current knowledge and evidence for a variety of clinical problems encountered by Sports Physicians and others involved with active patients. It is a compilation of chapters by authors with authority and experience in their chosen field. In addition to management of common clinical problems, this book will attempt to provide the reader with the evidence for exercise and sport related to primary and secondary prevention of common problems such as osteoarthritis and diabetes mellitus.
For medical students and health professionals: Laparoscopic Splenectomy enables the user to learn a variety of techniques for this advanced laparoscopic procedure. As part of the interactive program, the user is required to correctly identify the procedural steps, anatomic structures, and planes of dissection in order to safely complete the procedure. The program includes multiple videos from real case and state-of-the-art anatomic illustrations. A variety of alternate techniques and complications are presented so the user fully understands the variations encountered when performing this procedure. Windows / Macintosh Compatible.

"The long-awaited update to the definitive guide to successfully living with Parkinson's disease Known for its upbeat, informative, and inspirational guidance, Living Well with Parkinson's includes a wealth of up-to-date medical information for Parkinson's sufferers, who number over 1 million in the U.S. alone. Combined with the author's poignant personal account of her own struggles with the disease, this new edition features coverage of pallidotomy (a new surgical technique), the dramatic implications of recent genetic research, and new drugs and therapies. The book also includes tips on dealing with social services and elder law, maintaining a positive attitude, handling issues with spouses and children, and finding support groups.Glenna Wotton Atwood, a former home economics teacher from Maine, lived with Parkinson's for over two decades until her death in 1998. Lila Green Hunnewell (Rockaway, NJ) is a freelance writer and editor. Roxanne Moore Saucier (Bangor, ME) is a journalist with the Bangor Daily News."
Despite extensive efforts to control it, malaria is still one of the most devastating infectious diseases worldwide. This book, now in its second edition, provides a broad and up-to-date overview of the rapidly expanding field of malaria immunology and its importance in the control of this disease.
The first section deals with the malaria parasite and its interactions with both the vertebrate host and the mosquitoes which transmit the disease. In the second part, the mechanisms of immunity and their regulation by environmental and genetic factors are discussed. Finally, this volume contains several chapters on malaria vaccine development, describing the application of the most recent vaccine technologies as well as ongoing and planned vaccine trials.
Cancer is not a single genetic disease but, rather, hundreds of diseases consisting of various combinations of genetic alterations. Many types of genetic alterations contribute to neoplastic transformation. The evidence for this statement has now become common knowledge. In a similar vein, almost everybody believes that genome sequencing is paving the way to a revolution in biology and medicine in general but in oncology in particular. We all mention imatinib and a few monoclonal antibodies when we want to demonstrate that targeted therapies are already more than just a vision. We are, however, still unable to foresee clearly the role
genomics will play in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of cancer in the next 10 or 15 years. This uncertainty stems mainly from a dearth of clinical data, and most of the data we do have are retrospective and therefore most probably biased. As stated in its introduction, this book is probably the first of its kind devoted to the genomics of cancer. I approached it with mixed feelings: on the one hand, I was hoping to find answers to some of my questions, mainly because the span of the book reaches from molecular profiling to model systems for discovering and validating drug targets, and from molecularly targeted pharmacology to clinomics. The latter is a term coined by Daniel Von Hoff et al., whose chapter in this book defines clinomics as the application of genomics to patient care. On the other hand, I approached the book with some
skepticism, since the field is moving so rapidly that I was afraid to find once again a book that was already too old or just provided reviews that everyone in the field has already read. But I was pleasantly surprised to find a book that is extremely rich in information and detail but is not
more specialized than necessary. One might criticize certain choices the editors have made -- for instance, providing a discussion of the role of proteomics and genomics in bladder cancer but not in colorectal and lung cancer. This, however, is not very important, since the book was not written for physicians who seek an overview of the latest discoveries in the molecular biology of a specific cancer type. Oncogenomics is very good reading for oncologists who would like to understand what is happening in the laboratory and in the preclinical setting, especially in terms of techniques and research approaches. The book is also worth reading for basic and clinical scientists who intend to plan translational and clinical studies that entail oncogenomics. The essence of the book is to bring together scientists from various specialties and share the same
language, a prerequisite for the next "leap forward." It seems logical that the book concludes with an essay by A.C. von Eschenbach, the director of the National Cancer Institute, who gives his vision of oncology in 2015. Franco Cavalli, M.D., F.R.C.P.
