Book Description::

Technical advances in gene sequencing in the past few years have greatly enhanced our ability to detect and understand the role of genetic alterations in musculoskeletal diseases. Though our treatments based upon the new knowledge has not been substantially affected by the recent advances, this is likely to change in the near future. The orthopaedist who stays abreast of these advances will be able to offer better counseling, diagnostic tests and treatment options for patients. The current group of papers in this symposium provides readers with background on how genetic researchers are trying to unravel the genetic

mystery of both common and rare orthopaedic disorders. An earlier study1 found genetic conditions were present in greater than 50% of patients admitted to a pediatric orthopaedic hospital with musculoskeletal disorders. The genes responsible for Mendelian inherited orthopaedic conditions, including many types of skeletal dysplasias, osteogenesis imperfecta, and neurocutaneous syndromes (neurofibromatosis) are known. For other, more common, conditions with complex inheritance patterns, such as scoliosis and osteoarthritis, the identification of genes that influence disease susceptibility has been more elusive.

Academic Press | 2009 | ISBN: 0123746027 | 752 pages | PDF | 23,1 MB

Since the publication of the first edition, the U.S. Surgeon General released the first-ever report on bone health and osteoporosis in October 2004. This report focuses even more attention on the devastating impact osteoporosis has on millions of lives. According to the National Osteoporosis Foundation, 2 million American men have osteoporosis, and another 12 million are at risk for this disease. Yet despite the large number of men affected, the lack of awareness by doctors and their patients puts men at a higher risk that the condition may go undiagnosed and untreated. It is estimated that one-fifth to one-third of all hip fractures occur in men.

This second edition brings on board John Bilezikian and Dirk Vanderschueren as editors with Eric Orwoll. The table of contents is more than doubling with 58 planned chapters. The format is larger - 8.5 x 11. This edition of Osteoporosis in Men brings together even more eminent investigators and clinicians to interpret developments in this growing field, and describe state-of-the-art research as well as practical approaches to diagnosis, prevention and therapy.

Bone densitometry (BD) is an extraordinary clinical tool. It provides a safe, non-invasive window to the skeleton. Through that window, a physician can obtain vital clinical information that enhances diagnosis and improves patient management. Further, much has changed in the last decade to make bone densitometry the especially fascinating field of medicine it is today, incorporating imaging, physics, quantitative analysis, statistics, and computer technology -- all applied in the diagnosis and management of osteoporosis.

No text details the state-of-the-art and value of densitometry better than Bone Densitometry in Clinical Practice: Applications and Interpretation, Third Edition. Written by renowned expert Sydney Lou Bonnick, MD, this edition improves remarkably on her highly regarded previous volumes, with a significant update and expansion of material. New chapters reflect densitometry’s growing applications as well as the evolving needs of the densitometrist. New material on radiation safety and assessment for secondary causes of bone fragility is included, and the text also incorporates material from the recent ISCD Position Development Conferences (PDC’s), both the 4th adult and the 1st pediatric. Moreover, an entire appendix devoted to the PDCs has been added, providing solutions to many unanswered questions concerning bone densitometry applications. In addition, this edition again includes an accompanying CD-ROM containing several important tools: a Precision Calculator, a Statistical Confidence Calculator for Measured Change in BMD, the Black Fracture Index, a Patient Risk Factor Questionnaire, and a CME review, which, if successfully completed, allows the reader to claim up to 30 hours of AMA Category 1 CME credit from the Foundation for Osteoporosis Research and Education (FORE).

Comprehensive and invaluable, Bone Densitometry in Clinical Practice: Application and Interpretation, Third Edition offers all primary care physicians and specialists the ideal reference for practicing state-of-the-art bone densitometry and caring for patients with, or at risk for, osteoporosis.
