Given current trends toward obesity, sedentary lifestyles, and poor diets, hypertension is increasingly becoming a disease of the young as well as the elderly, affecting about 1 billion people worldwide. Many patients, especially the younger ones, would prefer alternative treatments. While natural remedies have been used for much longer than pharmaceutical-based treatments, few Western physicians are trained in alternative treatments of hypertension. Written by a dual board-certified nephrologist and internist as well as a Harvard-trained doctor of chemistry, Integrative Treatment of Hypertension: A Clinical and Mechanistic Approach offers an alternative approach to treating hypertension, providing sound mechanisms of action and practical implementation advice.
The author meticulously analyzes the efficacy of treatments based on data from respected medical journals. The book begins with an introduction to the subject and explains the mechanisms of blood pressure and hypertension, describes common causes of hypertension, and reviews standard medications and their side effects. The author examines alternative methods of treatment, emphasizing mechanisms of action, similarities to standard medications, and practical recommendations for employing these methods. Chapters cover dietary factors in treating hypertension, alternative yet common diets, the efficacy of nonconsumptive methods of treatment, and descriptions of natural supplements in treating hypertension. The book also addresses blood pressure goals and categorizes each standard and alternative method of treatment, suggesting ways of implementing an integrative approach to hypertension treatment. A useful companion to any health care provider, this book presents a unique work that fills a niche within the medical community.

Описание: While fossil fuels are the main sources for producing energy, they have a variety of destructive environmental effects and are quickly being depleted. Therefore, governments need to find clean and renewable alternative energy sources that can produce adequate amounts of energy. Biomass fuels have recently emerged as an alternative energy source because they provide the needed attributes and are compatible with many industries. Bioenergy and the Advanced Application of Bio-Products and Microfluidic Devices is a pivotal reference source that provides vital research on biofuels including in-depth examinations of their composition, carbon contents, heat production capacities, and other important factors needed to understand best practices and processes for upgrading them directly and indirectly to various fuels. Additionally, it introduces applications of microfluidic devices and lab-on-chips in biomass processes. While highlighting topics such as bio-oil reforming, plasma treatment, and biofuel production, this book is ideally designed for engineers, researchers, students, professionals, and academicians.

Описание: Hybrid organic and inorganic perovskites (HOIP) have shown remarkable progress since the first realisation of efficient PSCs with a PCE of 3.9% in 2009; the record PCE reached 23.3% in 2018. The next step will undoubtedly be developing scale-up techniques for transitioning small-area devices to large-area modules. Most books outline only the basic theoretical background, fabrication methods and/or applications. To bridge the gap between academia and industry, a profound understanding of the recent advancements in the HOIPs field is necessary. Experts insights in this book present an in-depth overview of information regarding the materials synthesis methodologies, effects of dopants, optimised optoelectronic properties, suitable deposition methods, engineering and improving the stability of various device architectures using printing methods for flexible large-area PSC modules, including the module concept, discuss various challenges and issues that can open the door for the researchers towards commercialisation of durable perovskite solar cells. Moreover, this book also covers the developments on the zero-, two-, and three-dimensional non-toxic perovskite/non-perovskite materials, the radiation degradation of solar cells, the synergetics of cooperative phenomena in tandem systems and provide some recommendations to overcome the challenges for improving the photoconversion efficiency.
Автор: Jessica Schultz Название: The Internal Protection Alternative in Refugee Law: Treaty Basis and Scope of Application under the 1951 Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees and Its 1967 Protocol ISBN: 9004361952 ISBN-13(EAN): 9789004361959 Издательство: Brill Цена: 256350.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: Under what circumstances can a state refuse refugee status to a person whose risk of persecution exists in only part of her country of origin? This book is the first monograph to examine the treaty basis and criteria for the ‘internal protection alternative’ (IPA), an exception to refugee status increasingly invoked by state parties to the 1951 Refugee Convention and its 1967 Protocol. Through a critical analysis of the relationship between refugee law and related fields, Schultz finds that the legal scope for IPA practice is narrower than is commonly claimed. Since persons subject to an IPA analysis have a well-founded fear of persecution within their countries of origin, any limit on their right to refugee status must involve a careful balancing of the impact of continued displacement against the state's interest in preserving its restricted protection resources. She argues that the doctrine of implied limits in human rights law can provide analytic structure to the IPA concept and reduce the risk of overly broad application.
