Statistical Analysis of Panel Count Data (Statistics for Biology and Health)

Springer, 2013

Panel count data occur in studies that concern recurrent events, or event history studies, when study subjects are observed only at discrete time points. By recurrent events, we mean the event that can occur or happen multiple times or repeatedly. Examples of recurrent events include disease infections, hospitalizations in medical...

Key Concepts in Energy

Springer, 2014

Organized around eight fundamental ideas, Key concepts in energy history explores the discoveries, technologies and new paradigms in the field of energy, and how they have changed the course of history. Complex technical concepts such as the “rebound effect”, “technological hybridization”, “marginal cost...

Small Universal Cellular Automata in Hyperbolic Spaces: A Collection of Jewels

Springer, 2013

Hyperbolic geometry is an essential part of theoretical astrophysics and cosmology. Besides specialists of these domains, many specialists of new domains start to show a growing interest
both to hyperbolic geometry and to cellular automata. This is especially the case in biology and computer science.

This book gives the...

Concrete Semantics: With Isabelle/HOL

Springer, 2014

Part I of this book is a practical introduction to working with the Isabelle proof assistant. It teaches you how to write functional programs and inductive definitions and how to prove properties about them in Isabelle’s structured proof language. Part II is an introduction to the semantics of imperative languages with an emphasis on...

Cardiovascular Regeneration Therapies Using Tissue Engineering Approaches

Springer, 2005

The cardiovascular system transports oxygen and nutrients to all parts of the body; therefore, any impediment to this system through, for example, a circulatory disorder, represents a serious threat to organs, tissues, and cells. Obstructive diseases of vessels with a diameter of more than 1 mm can be treated by conventional surgical and...

Acquired Cystic Disease of the Kidney and Renal Cell Carcinoma: Complication of Long-Term Dialysis

Springer, 2007

The detailed and comprehensive observations presented in this book on acquired cystic disease of the kidney and renal cell carcinoma in dialysis patients are drawn from the author’s decades of experience. Beginning with the first clinical case in 1978 and including subsequent follow-up studies and questionnaires, the volume is an...

Regulatory Mechanisms of Striated Muscle Contraction (Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology)

Springer, 2007

The discovery of troponin by Professor Setsuro Ebashi opened a new era for research into the regulation of striated muscle contraction. This volume is the proceedings of the symposium held at Okazaki, Japan, in 2005 celebrating the 40th anniversary of that discovery.

Professor Ebashi started his work on muscle...

OPLL: Ossification of the Posterior Longitudinal Ligament

Springer, 2006

Ossifi cation of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) is no longer only a Japanese disease. In 2004, 18 papers on OPLL and related conditions were published, and 7 of those were from countries other than Japan. Major textbooks on spine surgery, such as The Spine, The Cervical Spine, and Spine Surgery, have devoted chapters to...

Evoked Spinal Cord Potentials: An illustrated Guide to Physiology, Pharmocology, and Recording Techniques

Springer, 2006

The technique of using evoked spinal cord potentials (SCPs) has become an important clinical tool for monitoring spinal cord surgery and diagnosing spinal cord diseases. The technique is a result both of the technical development of recording evoked SCPs from the epidural space without perforation of the dura mater and of the...

International Classification of HRCT for Occupational and Environmental Respiratory Diseases

Springer, 2005

Many international experts collaborated in creating this groundbreaking work, a principal-coding system, and in developing reference films and imaging parameters for the International Classification of HRCT for Occupational and Environmental Respiratory Diseases. The book is an authoritative guide to the recognition of dust...

Hand transplantation

Springer, 2007

The story of this book is quite simple: after the first few hand transplants, we felt the need to have regular meetings so that our clinical experiences would be beneficially shared and serve as a basis to draw some guidelines for the future. In so doing, we soon realised that a huge amount of original clinical data and...

Parallel Architectures and Bioinspired Algorithms (Studies in Computational Intelligence)

Springer, 2012

This monograph presents examples of best practices when combining bioinspired algorithms with parallel architectures. The book includes recent work by leading researchers in the field and offers a map with the main paths already explored and new ways towards the future.
