Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the most common skin diseases of children, which account for more than 90% of the presenting cases. In each chapter, the differential diagnostic possibilities are shown in a table where the most important distinguishing features are summarized. Treatment is presented in considerable detail, reflecting the current literature as well as the clinical experience in two large German pediatric dermatology clinics. The scientific names of all recommended medications are given so that the book can be used by readers around the globe, rather than just those with access to European medications. Tips are included for the treating physician on how to best tailor the various therapy regimens and anticipate the course of the disease. Recent advances in dermatologic therapy including tacrolimus, pimecrolimus, and imiquimod are included. The appendix contains detailed practical information on the choice of an appropriate vehicle, as well as on antibiotics, antihistamines, and topical corticosteroids.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the number of surviving immune suppressed patients continues its rapid increase, the skin manifestations have become increasingly important. AIDS patients and renal, heart, liver, bone marrow and lung transplant patients are surviving longer and are often experiencing skin side effects of immunity suppression. Diabetes is exploding in the USA and offers its own unique brand of immune suppressed skin diseases. Immunosuppressive drugs are being used more frequently and newer biologics and tyrosine kinase drugs have added to new categories of immune suppressed patients. This book aims to clearly elucidate the signs of immune suppressed skin disease to afford early diagnosis and management of this ever-increasing, diverse group of illnesses.

This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Due to the increasing exposure of the skin to damaging environmental influences such as ultraviolet radiation, climatic determinants, chemicals or infections, research in this field is rapidly progressing. The interaction between the skin and the environment presents a fascinating and challenging research subject. For instance, skin aging and skin carcinogenesis are caused by both genetic and environmental factors. And also in diseases like psoriasis, atopic dermatitis and collagen diseases, genetic, immunologic and environmental factors interact. In recent years, new technologies to investigate skin response have allowed researchers to explore the interplay of environmental and genomic elements in skin cell biology, decipher the biochemical steps undertaken in the process, and study the genetics underlying variations in skin response to the environment. In this volume the state-of-the-art findings, ranging from molecular biology to epidemiology, are discussed thoroughly. The publication thus provides new insights for dermatologists, allergologists and immunologists who seek a better understanding of disease processes and new therapeutic strategies.
