| Synopsis: |
This reference explores the epidemiology, etiology, management, and pathophysiological mechanisms of atopic dermatitis and identifies potential genetic and environmental factors associated with allergic skin immune responses - compiling the latest research, diagnostic procedures, and therapeutic strategies for the prevention, control, and treatment of this chronic inflammatory disease. Written by leading experts in the field, "Atopic Dermatitis" addresses the clinical features of atopic dermatitis (AD); the role of antigen-presenting cells, T-cells, and keratinocytes in pathogenesis; food hypersensitivity and infections in children; the identification and elimination of exacerbating components; emerging anti-inflammatory agents for controlling AD; the importance of animal models; and; the effect of AD on the emotional development of patients. Discussing the mounting prevalence of skin disease, as well as its social and economic impact, this book is a definitive and essential guide for dermatologists, allergists, immunologists, pharmaceutical and cosmetic chemists, internsists, pediatricians, epidemiologists, and graduate and medical school students in these disciplines. |
