Interventional Techniques for the Management of Sacroiliac Joint Pain - - Bog - Nova Science Publishers Inc - Plusbog.dk

As the growing prevalence of chronic low back pain continues to burden our healthcare system, identification and treatment of the appropriate source of pain is critical. There may be up to a million patients annually with low back complaints that have sacroiliac joint conditions likely to cause or contribute to the pain. There is an unmet need for a comprehensive clinically focused, fast reference on sacroiliac joint pain treatment. The book is structured into eight chapters that include a robust overview of anatomy, physiology, patient selection, and both conservative and advanced treatments. As the body of evidence compiles for the utilization of minimally invasive techniques for the treatment of low back pain to in lieu of major back surgery, this book provides options that may benefit patients with low back pain with the use of both established and novel treatments. As the healthcare industry continues to invest in research and development of cutting-edge treatments for pain control, this book discusses in detail the most current treatment options available. Written by high profile, nationally recognized experts in the field of interventional pain management, Interventional Techniques for the Treatment of Sacroiliac Joint Pain is one of the first manuals of its kind to provide a focused and comprehensive approach to the effective treatment of sacroiliac joint pain.

Dual inheritance theory (DIT) recognizes the fact that for the last 50 millennia cultural evolution has had a marked impact on our anatomy, behavior and cognition. Unfortunately, by considering cumulative cultural evolution as the natural choice of all cognitively modern humans, DIT implies that technological innovation is the index of progress, and that the ratcheting of innovations becomes the goal of cultural evolution. This is accomplished by developing a certain degree of social complexity in which the biased copying of cultural models becomes a technique of cultural transmission. Small and isolated populations are therefore doomed, and the treadmill model takes effect, in which the lack of demographic strength results in impaired social learning and loss/infidelity in copying. However, the anthropological literature documents small and isolated groups that havedespite these handicapsdeveloped intricate exchange networks that do not necessarily rely on technological innovation and function only in low demographical settings. Not only that the parameters upon which cultural transmission is based in DITprestige, skills, successare unknown, but certain leveling mechanisms ensure that these parameters become eliminated and thus, no cultural models can rise to prominence. Interestingly, these societies do not seem to be plagued by cultural loss and, instead of hopelessly running the treadmill and living in poverty, they have developed egalitarian and, to an extent, affluent societies. The cultural evolution of these groups does not rely on accumulation, but rather on reduction. The reductive cultural orientations of such primitive societies are not an ancestral developmental stage, but rather an independent achievement. Populations following a reductive cultural orientationknown in anthropology as immediate-return hunters-gatherersare often described as pedomorphic, due to their markedly neotenous features. On the other hand, populations that follow a cumulative type of cultural evolution are surprisingly rugged phenotypes. In the case of the latter, a cultural leap occurred during the Middle/Upper Paleolithic transition, which resulted in the entrenchment of archaic behavioral traits upon which hierarchical societies became established. Conversely, in the case of reductive orientations, a cultural regression seems to have occurred, but only during the early Holocene. The adoption of a cultural primitivismimmediate-return subsistenceoffered a degree of flexibility that allowed for a neotenal leap. This enabled the reduction of archaic behavioral traits and the emergence of egalitarian societies.

New Therapeutic Strategies in Low-Grade Liomas - Kuc Taillandier - Bog - Nova Science Publishers Inc - Plusbog.dk

Low-grade glioma (LGG) (grade 2 or G2G) is a brain infiltrative neoplasia, often invading cortical and subcortical functional structures, while displaying as a rule a somewhat indolent course initially (no patent deficit). It affects essentially young, fully active patients, who usually present with seizures. However, these lesions progress relentlessly, and their final fate is anaplastic transformation, leading to neurological impairment and death, with an overall median survival of around 10 years since the onset of symptoms. Due to their apparent biological variability, commonly admitted spontaneous prognostic factors are of limited use if not questionable; consequently, the management of LGGs remains difficult to define (individually), and subject to controversies in the literature. However, most studies have evaluated the eventual impact of treatment(s) independently of the individual natural history and of the global therapeutic strategy. Thus, the goal of the present review is to give new insights regarding the different therapeutic strategies that need to be considered for each patient, and the parameters that can help the decision making. First, it is now possible to benefit from data allowing a better understanding of the natural history of a given LGG: (1) initial tumoral volume (2) tumoral growth rate evaluated on at least two MRIs (3) tumoral metabolic profile, using new radiological methods such as PET and SRM (4) tumoral molecular biology, completing the information provided by classical histopathology. Second, it is mandatory to perform a complete neurological examination, extensive neuropsychological assessment and evaluation of the quality of life from the time of diagnosis throughout the follow-up. Moreover, the analysis of the brain functional (re)organisation and connectivity is needed via the use of new neurofunctional imaging methods (PET, MEG, fMRI, DTI), in order to understand the individual mechanisms of functional compensation in reaction to the glioma growth -- explaining the frequent lack of deficit despite a classical invasion of so called "eloquent" areas. Third, the advantages and limits of each treatment have to be considered for each patient. In this way, the use of intraoperative electrical functional mapping as well as the integration, up to the operating room, of preoperative anatomo-functional data, has allowed the minimisation of the risk of postoperative sequelae, while improving the quality of tumor removal, even in eloquent regions. However, the actual long-term impact of surgery on survival still remains to ascertain. Concerning radiotherapy, the adaptation of doses, fractionation and volume of irradiation has enabled to decrease its risks, especially regarding cognitive functions. Nevertheless, despite an impact on the progression free survival, the effect on the overall survival is not proven. Finally, the recent use of new chemotherapeutic drugs has allowed a better tolerance and a frequent improvement of the quality of life via an impact on seizures, with a stabilisation or even partial regression of the LGG; however, the follow-up is still too short to conclude. On the basis of these (non exhaustive) parameters, we propose in the last part of this book to consider not "a standard treatment", but rather alternative "multiple dynamic therapeutic strategies" adapted to each patient, to be evaluated according to the clinico-radiological evolution of the LGG.
