| anti cd20 therapy monitor: IgG4-Related Sclerosing Cholangitis Terumi Kamisawa, Myung-Hwan Kim, 2018-07-31 This book aims to raise awareness of IgG4-related sclerosing cholangitis among practicing physicians and to equip readers with a sound understanding of the principles of diagnosis and treatment. Clinical, serological, and histopathological features are clearly described and imaging appearances on all relevant modalities are illustrated, covering the bile duct and other involved organs. Differential diagnosis from other diseases, including primary sclerosing cholangitis and cholangiocarcinoma, is precisely explained. Information is then presented on all significant current and emerging therapeutic strategies, including steroids, immunosuppressive drugs, and rituximab. Finally, attention is drawn to significant prognostic features. While IgG4-related sclerosing cholangitis is now a widely acknowledged condition, most practitioners are still liable to misdiagnose it owing to a lack of familiarity with its presenting features. This book should help to rectify the situation and will be an asset for all who may encounter the disease in clinical practice. |

| anti cd20 therapy monitor: White Matter Diseases Massimo Filippi, Maria A. Rocca, 2020-02-13 This book provides cutting-edge information on the epidemiology, etiopathogenesis, clinical manifestations, diagnostic procedures and treatment approaches for the main white matter (WM) disorders of the central nervous system (CNS). WM lesions are associated with many neurological conditions, and with aging. The diagnostic work-up of neurological diseases characterized by the presence of these lesions has changed dramatically over the past few years. This is mainly due on the one hand to the discovery of specific pathogenetic factors in some of these conditions, and on the order to the optimized use of diagnostic tools. All of this has resulted in new diagnostic algorithms, and in the identification of new neurological conditions. The book offers neurologists essential guidance in the diagnosis and treatment of the most frequent WM conditions, promoting their correct and cost-saving diagnosis and management. By integrating neurological, laboratory and imaging concepts with the demands of accurate diagnosis, this reference guide provides a state-of-the-art overview of the current state of knowledge on these conditions, as well as practical guidelines for their diagnosis and treatment. |

| anti cd20 therapy monitor: New Perspectives in the Treatment of Myasthenia Gravis Elena Cortés-Vicente, Francesco Saccà, Pushpa Narayanaswami , Bettina Schreiner, 2024-06-21 Myasthenia Gravis (MG) is a chronic autoimmune neuromuscular disorder caused by autoantibodies against post-synaptic proteins at the neuromuscular junction. These antibodies mostly attack the acetylcholine receptor (AChR), the muscle-specific kinase (MuSK), and the low-density lipoprotein-related protein 4 (LRP4). The main clinical characteristic of the disease is the presence of fluctuating fatigable muscle weakness involving the extraocular, facial, bulbar, respiratory, cervical, and proximal limb muscles. It is known that the thymus has an important role in the pathophysiology of the disease, and some patients associate a thymoma. |
