Primary Cholestatic Liver Diseases

E-book

E-book

Sylvia Dražilová

The Lecture Notes Primary Cholestatic Liver Diseases is intended primarily for undergraduate medical students and provides a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the diagnosis and management of the major cholestatic liver diseases. The publication focuses primarily on primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) and primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC). The introductory section covers the physiology of bile formation and transport, the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying cholestasis, and the fundamental diagnostic approach to patients presenting with a cholestatic pattern of liver test abnormalities.

The individual chapters integrate current knowledge of disease pathogenesis and natural history with a practical, clinically oriented approach to patient care. Particular emphasis is placed on the interpretation of laboratory, immunological, imaging, and histological findings; non-invasive assessment of liver fibrosis; risk stratification for disease progression; current therapeutic options; and indications for liver transplantation.

The university textbook is intended for students enrolled in the Chemical Laboratory Specialist study programme. The textbook presents basic laboratory equipment, glassware, tools, and balances. It explains the proper use, cleaning, and maintenance of laboratory glassware. It describes basic purification and separation methods, such as filtration, distillation, and extraction, and covers thin-layer chromatography and NMR spectroscopy. The practical section consists of ten laboratory experiments from various fields of chemistry, focusing on the preparation of substances, work with solutions, and basic analytical determinations. Students become familiar with titrations and the measurement of viscosity, pH, and density. The laboratory exercises also include water analysis, spectrophotometry, and work with biological material. Attention is also given to the isolation of substances from natural sources and their subsequent identification. Throughout the university textbook, theoretical knowledge is directly linked to practical laboratory procedures. The textbook supports the development of safe and technically correct working habits required for further study and professional practice.

Iveta Jeleňová (ed.)

The publication Environmental Attitudes, Behavior, and Their Promotion is a collection of scientific papers and a partial output of the VEGA 1/0764/24 project Environmental Attitudes, Pro-Environmental Behavior, and Its Promotion. Taking an interdisciplinary approach, it explores environmental attitudes and behavior, their interrelationships, and how individuals respond to the consequences of climate change. The individual studies focus on the environmental attitudes and behavior of college students, generational differences in climate change adaptation strategies, the links between gender attitudes and climate responsibility, and issues of environmental justice issues. The papers use various research methods and data sources to examine these issues at local and societal levels. The collection has been curated for experts, researchers, and other readers interested in the social context of environmental problems and climate change.
