Book Description
Long COVID has emerged as one of the most complex and challenging medical conditions of our time. Over the past few years, it has confounded patients and healthcare providers alike, presenting a wide array of symptoms that vary from mild to debilitating. Understanding this condition is crucial, not only for those who suffer from it but also for the medical professionals striving to offer effective care. This book, the first in a comprehensive series examining the causes and treatments of Long COVID, is the culmination of over a year of dedicated work. It brings together the insights and expertise of Dr. Robert Groysman, MD, a leading authority in the field. Dr. Groysman has been at the forefront of treating Long COVID since the pandemic began, and his deep understanding of this condition is invaluable to anyone seeking to navigate its complexities. Designed for both patients and doctors, this book offers an in-depth exploration of Long COVID, breaking down the condition into understandable segments. You will gain knowledge of the risk factors, the underlying causes, and the various treatment options available. Importantly, this book is not just about theory; it's about practical, actionable strategies that can be implemented in real-life scenarios. As you embark on this journey through the pages of this book, you will discover not only the science behind Long COVID but also the personal insights that come from years of hands-on experience. My goal is to help you understand what is happening inside your body, why you feel the way you do, and to validate that your symptoms are real and not merely "in your head." Long COVID is a genuine medical condition, and this book aims to shed light on its many facets. While treatment options are discussed in detail, I have deliberately refrained from prescribing specific dosages or one-size-fits-all solutions. Treatment is highly individual, and what works for one person may not work for another. This book is meant to serve as a guide, offering a clear strategy that you can discuss with your healthcare provider to tailor the best approach for your unique situation. Natural treatments, though often beneficial, can be harmful if not used correctly, and it is essential to make informed decisions in collaboration with your provider. Through the experience of treating Long COVID and related conditions for over four years, I have seen the positive impact of a well-structured, personalized treatment plan. This book is designed to help you focus and organize your treatment into a working plan that you can share with your healthcare provider. While all the information presented is evidence-based, it is also enriched by my personal experiences and the lessons I have learned in the field. This book is more than just a guide; it is a tool to empower you in your journey towards better health. Whether you are a patient seeking relief or a doctor looking to expand your knowledge, this book provides the wisdom and resources needed to understand and effectively treat Long COVID.

Book Description
Scientifically based and emotionally charged, this book demystifies the new epidemic, called 'Long Haulers Syndrome' in America and 'Long Covid' globally. Motivated by the suffering of his own family and friends, investigative journalist Michael Bowker set out to find the truth behind this brutal sequel to COVID-19 that is striking tens of millions of people in the US and worldwide. Bowker conducted exclusive interviews with post-COVID experts from Mount Sinai, Mayo Clinic, the NIH, Johns Hopkins, Stanford University and medical centers worldwide. They unveil the mysteries of the disease and prove the often-debilitating symptoms are biologically based, not psychosomatic. Also included is a look at the research into treatments and cures, patient stories and a review of symptoms and their causes, and a look at the epidemic worldwide. The book is full of profound affirmation and hope for patients.

Book Description
The COVID-19 pandemic not only ravaged human bodies but also had profound and possibly enduring effects on the health of political and legal systems, economies and societies. Almost overnight, governments imposed the severest restrictions in modern times on rights and freedoms, elections, parliaments and courts. Legal and political institutions struggled to adapt, creating a catalyst for democratic decline and catastrophic increases in poverty and inequality. This handbook analyses the global pandemic response through five themes: governance and democracy; human rights; the rule of law; science, public trust and decision making; and states of emergency and exception. Containing 12 thematic commentaries and 25 chapters on countries of diverse size, wealth and experience of COVID-19, it represents the combined effort of more than 50 contributors, including leading scholars and rising voices in the fields of constitutional, international, public health, human rights and comparative law, as well as political science, and science and technology studies. Taking stock after the onset of global emergency, this book provides essential analysis for politicians, policy-makers, jurists, civil society organisations, academics, students and practitioners at both national and international level on the best, and most concerning, practices adopted in response to COVID-19 – and key insights into how states and multilateral institutions should reform, adapt and prepare for future emergencies.

Book Description
COVID-19 or SARS-CoV-2 infection emerged as a global pandemic, associated with increased morbidity and mortality across the globe. The symptoms of COVID-19 appear 4-5 days following the exposure. The symptoms include throat pain, body aches, fever, cough, diarrhea, and loss of smell and taste. In the case of -mild infection, one may recover 7-10 days following the occurrence of symptoms while in severe cases, the recovery period may last for 3-6 weeks. Despite recovering from the COVID-19 infection, some individuals report the persistence of symptoms, usually weeks and even months after the infection. Such individuals are commonly labeled as long haulers. Long haulers are considered to be suffering from long COVID or post-COVID syndrome. This health condition is characterized by the presence of symptoms weeks or months following the initial onset of the infection. In addition to the persistence of older symptoms, some new symptoms may also develop in the case of long COVID. The development of this condition is not associated with the viral status in the body. This means that an individual may have long COVID even if the body has eradicated the virus, as indicated by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test. In other words, long COVID is the period from microbiological recovery to clinical recovery. Based on the duration of the presence of symptoms, long COVID can be categorized into post-acute COVID stage and chronic COVID stage. In the post-acute COVID stage of long COVID, the duration of symptoms ranges from 3 weeks to 12 weeks. The chronic COVID stage occurs when the symptoms are present longer than a period of 12 weeks. The symptoms may be relapsing (worsening) or remitting (repeating) in the case of long COVID. This chapter provides insight into the symptoms, risk factors, pathogenesis, diagnosis, and an overview of treatment options for long COVID. Basic knowledge of these topics is essential for understanding and adapting to the strategies for self-management of long COVID.

Book Description
The third edition of the Toxicologist’s Pocket Handbook, like the first two editions, is a scaled-down version of the best-selling Handbook of Toxicology. It provides the most frequently used toxicology reference information in a convenient pocket-sized book. The format remains the same as the earlier editions to allow basic reference information to be located quickly, with the information placed in sections specific to subspecialties of toxicology. A detailed table of contents lists all tables and figures contained in the book by section. This expanded edition contains a number of tables not found in the second edition added to sections on lab animals, general toxicology, dermal and ocular toxicology, genetic toxicology/carcinogenesis, neurotoxicology, immunotoxicology, reproductive/developmental toxicology, industrial chemical, and pharmaceutical toxicology. New information is presented for additional laboratory animals such as swine and primates, infusion recommendations, newer methods such as the local lymph node assay, and reference safety pharmacology values for standard species. Additional information on typical genetic toxicology and immunotoxicology assays as well as in vitro assays for eye irritation are provided. Some tables from the second edition have been updated to include new information that has arisen since the earlier edition went to press. Information from the second edition, such as regulatory requirements that are no longer applicable, has been deleted.
