Book Description
Les professionnels impliqués dans la prescription ou la vente de lentilles de contact (ou lentilles cornéennes) constatent, au quotidien, en fonction du type de lentilles choisies et de leur entretien, que le port de lentilles cornéennes peut entraîner des sensations d'inconfort ainsi que des atteintes de la santé oculaire, parfois bénins, parfois plus sérieux. Quelle est la meilleure solution d'entretien pour améliorer l'expérience du porteur de lentilles de contact ? Quel mode de port doit-on privilégier ? Quelles sont les meilleures pratiques pouvant assurer une plus grande sécurité ? Quels sont les facteurs importants à considérer pour éviter le développement d'infection ou d'inflammation à la suite du port de lentilles ? Qui est à risque ? Ce sont ces thèmes que développe l'ouvrage Les lentilles de contact. Optimisation de l'adaptation, utilisation et entretien. Après une présentation de l'évolution des matériaux composant les lentilles, l'auteur présente les solutions d'entretien et de conservation des lentilles de contact avec leurs différents agents, et leur mode d'utilisation. La présence de lentilles de contact sur l'œil n'est pas anodine et tous les professionnels ou prescripteurs délivrant des produits et des lentilles de contact doivent veiller à réduire les risques d'infection au maximum. Si toutefois des complications surviennent, l'auteur propose une conduite à suivre. Ce livre expose les recommandations et les gestes au quotidien que le porteur de lentilles doit respecter : de la pose de la lentille à son retrait, son entretien, sa conservation pour la nuit. Les lentilles de contact. Optimisation de l'adaptation, utilisation et entretien s'adresse à tous les professionnels de la vision (ophtalmologistes, opticiens, étudiants en optométrie, orthoptistes, enseignants…) ainsi qu'aux porteurs de lentilles désireux de conseils pratiques dans le choix et l'entretien des lentilles de contact.

ISBN: 9780792352228
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 538
Book Description
An expert exposition of the structural and mechanical properties of light alloys and composites, bridging the gap between scientists and industrial engineers in its consideration of advanced light materials, their structure, properties, technology and application. Includes basic problems of alloy constitution and phase transformations. The aluminium alloys are the main topic of the book, consideration being given to their properties, casting technology, thermomechanical treatment and structure. Attention is also given to the magnesium alloys, particularly those having rare earth metal constituents. Both commercial titanium alloys and intermetallic compounds are discussed, as are metallic composites. The latest engineering techniques are discussed in both theoretical and practical terms.

Anti-ageing Medicine
Author: Astrid Stuckelberger
Publisher: vdf Hochschulverlag AG
ISBN: 3728131954
Category : Aging
Languages : en
Pages : 330
Book Description
The 21st century technological development is revolutionizing medicine and health care, bringing new hopes to human suffering by offering cures and treatments which were unthinkable a few decades ago. This is where anti-ageing medicine finds its niche. Anti-ageing medicine aims at slowing, arresting, and reversing phenomena associated with ageing by merging biotechnological innovation and engineered solutions. Ideally, by means of the newest medical technology, the "body machinery" should be kept fit and at peak performance all life long. Early detection of age-related dysfunction should thus be "fixed" at any age with interventions such as metabolic fine tuning, enhancement, regeneration, restoration or replacement of "body parts" (i.e. organs, skin, bone or muscle). It covers a vast array of domains: from cell therapy to pharmaceutical interventions, from bio-surgery to aesthetic surgery, from human enhancement to fortified food, from smart housing and robots to toxic-free environments. Anti-ageing medicine holds promises but also significant risks and safety issues which are addressesd in this book. It presents the latest scientific evidence on what works or does not work. It also provides public policy recommendations to ensure the protection of consumers and their rights while encouraging research and development. This book is intended for academics, health professionals, business persons, consumers and policy-makers interested in the latest evidence and ethical issues about anti-ageing medicine.

Agroclimatology
Author: Jerry L. Hatfield
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 0891183574
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 656
Book Description
Can we unlock resilience to climate stress by better understanding linkages between the environment and biological systems? Agroclimatology allows us to explore how different processes determine plant response to climate and how climate drives the distribution of crops and their productivity. Editors Jerry L. Hatfield, Mannava V.K. Sivakumar, and John H. Prueger have taken a comprehensive view of agroclimatology to assist and challenge researchers in this important area of study. Major themes include: principles of energy exchange and climatology, understanding climate change and agriculture, linkages of specific biological systems to climatology, the context of pests and diseases, methods of agroclimatology, and the application of agroclimatic principles to problem-solving in agriculture.

Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 233
Book Description
The first of its kind, this series is devoted to the use of physical principles in the study and scientific conservation of objects with cultural heritage significance. It begins with a review of the modern museum, which discusses new techniques employed in the conservation of museum artifacts such as X-ray tomography and other techniques used to study Egyptian mummies, bones and mineralization of bones in the archaeological context, and the degradation of parchment. All of these topics and techniques are essential for the preservation of our history. This includes finding ways to preserve parchment documents and letters, which much of our written heritage is documented on, so that it can be used and understood for generations to come. This book is a must have for any museum as well as any university that teaches or employs the techniques discussed. - Written in a style that is readily understandable by conservation scientists, archaeologists, museum curators, and students - Provides an introduction to the advanced fields of synchrotron radiation science, neutron science, and computed tomography - Outstanding review of the use of modern technology to study museum and archaeological artifacts - Offers solutions through advanced scientific techniques to a wide range of problems facing museum staff
