Les souffrances psychologiques des malades du cancer : Comment les reconnaître, comment les traiter? = The psychological suffering of cancer patients : How to recognize them, how to treat them?
This book thus proposes, reconnecting with the most clinical and frankly psychodynamic vein, to bear witness to the encounter with the reality of cancerous disease and with all the imagination that it arouses. It is also a tribute to the sick - but just as much to their loved ones and their caregivers - who then engage in these territories of the crash, the unpredictable, where everything leads to think and do.
Antidiabetic medicinal plants and herbal treatments
Diabetes is a chronic condition associated with metabolic disorder. Persons suffering from diabetes have shown accelerated levels of blood sugar which often harms the heart, blood vessels, eyes, kidneys, and nerves. Over the past few decades, the prevalence of diabetes has been progressively increasing. Synthetic drugs are used to treat diabetic patients to help control the disorder, but it is shown that numerous medicinal plants and herbal drugs are widely used in several traditional systems of medicine to prevent and treat diabetes. They are reported to produce beneficial effects in combating diabetes and alleviating diabetes-related complications. These plants contain phtyonutrients and phytoconstituents demonstrating protective or disease preventive properties. In many developing countries, herbal drugs are recommended by traditional practitioners for diabetes treatment because the use of synthetic drugs is not affordable.

Children in Tort Law Part II : Children as Victims
Since children are not as capable as adults to perceive the risks involved in many situations of daily life, they are at a high risk of suffering personal injuries, mainly resulting from home, school and traffic accidents. From the tort law perspective, this requires a specific treatment of children as victims. For the last few decades some legal systems have been trying to find new solutions for a better protection of children, while other legal systems still follow more traditional rules. After having tackled the problems concerning the position of children as tortfeasors in a previous book, in this book the same working team deals with the problems related to the position of children as victims. This book analyses both the traditional solutions found in some legal systems and the newer solutions offered by others and devotes specific attention to damage issues, apportionment of damage and insurance problems when the victim is a child.
Bell's oral and facial pain
Includes advanced understanding of the neurophysiology and central processing of pain and the resulting changes to diagnostic, classi cation, and treatment guidelines. To assist clinicians in the dif cult and often complicated task of managing patients suffering from oral and facial pain, this textbook provides documented information concerning pain and pain behavior so that one may better understand what pain is, how it behaves, and how it might best be managed; develops a useful classi cation of orofacial pain disorders; offers practical diagnostic criteria by which the different orofacial pain disorders can be identi ed on a clinical level; and suggests guidelines for the effective management of patients who suffer from pain in the region of the mouth and face.
Cell Culture Engineering
Many patients suffering with life-threatening diseases or chronic dysfunctions, which were medically untreatable not long ago, can attest to the wonder these drugs have achieved. Although the first generation of p- tein therapeutics was produced in recombinant Escherichia coli, most recent products use mammalian cells as production hosts. Not long after the first p- duction of recombinant proteins in E. coli, it was realized that the complex tasks of most post-translational modifications on proteins could only be efficiently carried out in mammalian cells.
