"This book is a world geography of emerging diseases from antiquity to the present day. The last four decades of human history have seen the emergence of an unprecedented number of 'new' infectious diseases. This book looks at the epidemiological and geographical conditions which underpin disease emergence."

"“Methods of Clinical Epidemiology” serves as a text on methods useful to clinical researchers. It provides a clear introduction to the common research methodology specific to clinical research for both students and researchers. This book sets out to fill the gap left by texts that concentrate on public health epidemiology and focuses on what is not covered well in such texts. The four sections cover methods that have not previously been brought together in one text and serves as a second level textbook of clinical epidemiology methodology. This book will be of use to postgraduate students in clinical epidemiology as well as clinical researchers at the start of their careers."

"Now in its third edition, this comprehensive volume is recognized as the most authoritative review of the epidemiology of infectious disease. Divided into five sections that cover methods in infectious disease epidemiology, airborne transmission, diarrheal diseases, blood and body fluid as a reservoir of infectious diseases, vectorborne and parasite disease. This book includes chapters on methodological issues, pathogenesis, and comprehensive reviews of virtually all known infectious diseases. New to the Third Edition: HIV chapter completely updated including results of trials of Male Circumcision, HIV-vaccines, female condoms, Microbicides and new drugs. Influenza chapter updated with new material on H1/N1 and control/prevention of Influenza during a pandemic. Malaria chapter updated with new information on bed nets, prophylactic therapy of pregnant women and other high risk populations as well as new detailed examination of the organization, implementation, and accomplishments of the WHO--Roll-Back Malaria program; and a new description of the 5th Human Malaria parasite--P.knowlesi and its Epidemiology. Hepatitis chapter is revised with new information on HEV virus. New brief chapter discussing the various models of behavioral change that are useful in Infectious Diseases research--e.g. Health Belief model etc. and much more!"

"[Pendahuluan: Luka penetrasi akibat kekerasan tajam merupakan temuan yang umum dalam pemeriksaan luar tindakan autopsi. Namun, sebagian besar mayat korban kekerasan tidak menjalani pemeriksaan dalam karena beragam alasan. Dengan demikian, temuan luka luar dapat berperan sebagai salah satu pertimbangan ahli forensik dalam memperkirakan kerusakan organ dalam walau tidak memiliki kekuatan secara hukum. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk menghasilkan bukti empiris terkait kerusakan organ dalam yang ditimbulkan kekerasan tajam. Metode: Peneliti mengambil sampel 5 luka penetrasi ke rongga peritoneal pada masing-masing area abdomen dari 36 subjek penelitian yang diotopsi di Departemen Forensik dan Medikolegal FKUI-RSCM, kemudian mencari tahu organ yang terlibat melalui data pemeriksaan baku emas. Hasil: Melalui uji hipotesis menggunakan uji Fisher, didapatkan nilai yang bermakna (p< 0,05) pada beberapa korelasi terkait temuan luka dan kerusakan organ dalam, yakni pada luka penetrasi di epigastrik dengan kerusakan hati (p= 0,01), luka penetrasi di hipokondriak kanan dengan kerusakan hati (p= 0,01), luka penetrasi di hipokondriak kiri dengan kerusakan lambung (p= 0,002), luka penetrasi di umbilikal dengan kerusakan pembuluh darah abdomen mayor (p= 0,004), serta luka penetrasi di iliaka kiri dan kerusakan pankreas (p= 0,01). Pembahasan: Korelasi yang bermakna pada temuan luka luar dan kerusakan organ dalam terkait regio anatomi dan arah luka. Besaran gaya yang diberikan turut mempengaruhi organ-organ yang terlibat;Introduction: Penetrating wounds from sharp force injuries are common findings in external examination of autopsy. Unfortunately, the majority of the victims do not undergo the internal examination part due to various reasons. Even though the forensic doctors do not perform the autopsy completely, the external findings can prove to be useful to predict the resulted organ damages. Therefore, they would still be able to release their expertise opinions based on evidence based medicine. The aim of this study is to produce the empirical evidence related to penetrating wound and organ damage. Method: Five penetrating wounds into peritoneal cavity for each abdominal region from 36 corpses, that had already been autopsied in Forensic and Medicolegal Department FKUI-RSCM, was analyzed to identify organ damage by using gold standard examination (e.g. internal examination in forensic practice), and then to find the correlation between them. Result: The results from hypothesis testing Fisher shows that the p< 0,05 appeared in some correlation findings between variables (penetration wound in epigastric and right hypochondriac and liver damage (p= 0,01), penetration wound in left hypochondriac and stomach damage (p= 0,002), penetration wound in umbilical and major abdomen blood vessel (p= 0,004), and penetration wound in left iliaca and pancreas damage (p= 0,01), thus made them statistically significant. Discussion: The significant results strongly associated with anatomical region and the direction of the wound. The amount of force applied to each wound affected the outcome of the damaged organs, Introduction: Penetrating wounds from sharp force injuries are common findings in external examination of autopsy.

"Now in its Fifth Edition, this text offers comprehensive coverage of all the major topics in introductory epidemiology. With extensive treatment of the heart of epidemiology--from study designs to descriptive epidemiology to quantitative measures--this text is accessible and interesting to a wide range of beginning students in all health-related disciplines. A unique focus is given to real-world applications of epidemiology and the development of skills that students can apply in subsequent course work and in the field. The Fifth Edition is a thorough revision with updated data throughout including: the top 10 leading causes of death, motor vehicle traffic death rates, mortality ratios, infant mortality rates, cancer deaths rates, tuberculosis incidence, life expectancy, incidence of AIDS, breast cancer death rates, tobacco consumption, dementia, suicide rates, unintentional injuries and much more."

"Helicobacter pylori is a globally significant pathogen that infects half of the population of the world. Its recognition enabled the development of new therapeutic and preventative strategies for serious health conditions such as gastric cancer, of which it is the major causative agent. Providing a broad overview of the current understanding of this pathogen and emphasizing its world health impacts, this book explores a range of topics including virulence factors, vaccine development and obstacles, epidemiology, antibiotic resistance and the role of Nod receptors, with a foreword by Barry Marshall, the Nobel Laureate and co-discoverer of H. pylori. It is an essential resource for researchers, students and medics in infectious and Helicobacter-associated diseases."
