The immunologist and bestselling author Attilio Speciani dispels the clichés about so-called ‘food intolerances’ and guides the reader to a healthy and better relationship with food. Colitis, migraines, hormonal changes, arthritis, autoimmune diseases, imbalances of metabolism and many other disorders, from the most common to the most severe, are often related to diet. There is a close relationship between food and health, and when the natural and physiological relationship with food changes, due to food excesses or the repeated introduction of food, the organism generates measurable inflammatory signals that induce and maintain many conditions or diseases.
This notebook includes drawings of the anatomical structures, most frequent ailments and some of the most commonly used surgical techniques in dogs and cats. Its purpose is to facilitate communication between vets and their clients, since it will enable them to explain graphically what is happening to the pet, where, and the procedure for the possible resolution of the problem.
This book offers essential information about how to obtain samples for routine clinical and pathological investigations veterinarians habitually follow in pig farms. In addition, a complete and easy-to-perform necropsy procedure is shown. Picture galleries illustrate these procedures in a very easy way to follow. The guide also contains a set of pictures representing the main pathologies veterinarians can find in their practice. The guide is very visual and literature is reduced in order to facilitate the use of the book. This design, together with the book format and binding makes this guide very easy to use in practice by veterinarians and farm workers.
Twenty per cent of visits to the vet may be due to otitis and, although in general they do not represent a serious condition for the animal, they may become very insidious processes if they are not treated suitably. This work presents a selection of clinical cases to help vets to establish the proper guidelines for treatment, management and control.
The extraction of impacted dental elements is often referred to by maxillofacial surgeons. However, it can be handled as routinely as any other type of extraction. Piezoelectric surgery of impacted teeth, which involves reproducible procedures using a step-by-step approach in all types of cases, also allows dentists who approach the extraction of impacted elements less frequently to carefully prepare for the procedure and perform it, thereby minimizing possible post-surgical issues for the patient, such as biological risks. Using the most innovative techniques, including the application of ultrasound in oral surgery and piezoelectric surgery, the author provides an indispensable tool to train and update dentists who intend to perform all types of extractions.
Correct vaccination of dogs and cats requires consideration of a broad range of clinical situations and vaccination options, and obliges veterinary surgeons to constantly update their knowledge in order to appropriately deal with the challenges that arise in daily clinical practice. Using a thoroughly practical approach, this book takes an in-depth look at vaccines and vaccination to provide veterinary professionals with the information they require to address the many doubts and questions that arise in relation to this topic.
For the general dentist and the experienced endodontist alike, NuEndo is both a guide and a reference tool for the complex processes of endodontic diagnosis, prognosis, and case selection. You will come to fully understand the dynamics of the pulpal-dentin complex, the underlying conditions related to pulpal and periapical disease, and the methods surrounding its assessment.
The 2022 edition of Endodontics is a masterpiece. The book captures the endodontics of the past, the endodontics of now, its trends, and the endodontics of the future. Illustrates the changes in endodontic technologies: from evolutionary history to the preparation of a correct access cavity, cleaning and shaping and 3D filling, from interdisciplinary endodontics to post-endodontic restoration, no detail comes up omitted in describing treatment methods necessary for clinical success.
The increasing demand for complex rehabilitative dental treatments in the adult patient and in developmental age raises the need for multidisciplinary therapies. The book is intended to trace the orthodontic-periodontal relationships, analyzing how orthodontic procedures can enhance the periodontal treatment plan, increasing its predictability, integrating it, interacting in the surgical approach and, at the same time, how Periodontology increases the potential and predictability of orthodontic treatments, synergically completing them.
Periodontology is the core of dentistry. Maintaining and restoring the health of tooth supporting tissues is the best way to ensure both their esthetic and functional integrity. This book systematically collects the most up-to-date knowledge on periodontal surgery.
Pets, particularly cats and dogs, are living longer than ever before. Almost half of their lifespan makes app the senior/geriatric life stage. This book is a practical manual that comprehensively covers geriatric medicine of dogs and cats, and provides readers, whether veterinary surgeons working in routine clinical practice or students approaching the end of their veterinary medicine degree, with a different approach to clinically useful information on this topic. In this second edition all chapters have been rigorously reviewed and updated, with a particular emphasis on pharmacological protocols and dosages and new therapies. An entire new chapter on endocrine problems in senior pets has been added.
This book is intended as a practical guide to enable small animal clinical veterinary surgeons and their teams to improve various aspects of their everyday practice: how they understand and relate to patients and clients, how they manage their work, the handling of animals during different procedures, and the implementation of programs to deal with behavioral issues. These aspects will have a highly positive impact on the well-being of the patient, the client, and the veterinary and support staff, with the implementation of smoother and more effective procedures.
The second edition of this educational atlas on cats expands on its initial goal of helping veterinary surgeons communicate with owners by adding to the content of the first edition with 16 new sheets. Needless to say that the previous topics have been revised and updated with the latest developments in each area.
This unique book is a full exposé of the Neurostructural Integration Technique – NST from its genesis, through its development, into its theory, philosophy and ultimately hands-on practice.
