Preceded by : "Review of medical microbiology and immunology" by Warren Levinson 14th edition, 2016 "A Lange medical book" Includes index
PART I. BASIC BACTERIOLOGY. Bacteria compared with other microorganisms -- Structure of bacterial cells -- Growth -- Genetics -- Classification of medically important bacteria -- The human microbiome -- Pathogenesis -- Host defenses -- Laboratory diagnosis -- Antibacterial drugs: mechanism of action -- Antibacterial drugs: resistance -- Bacterial vaccines -- Sterilization & disinfection -- PART II: CLINICAL BACTERIOLOGY. Overview of the major pathogens & introduction to anaerobic bacteria -- Gram-positive cocci -- Gram-negative cocci -- Gram-positive rods -- Gram-negative rods related to the enteric tract -- Gram-negative rods related to the respiratory tract -- Gram-negative rods related to animal sources (zoonotic organisms) -- Mycobacteria -- Actinomycetes -- Mycoplasmas -- Spirochetes -- Chlamydiae -- Rickettsiae -- Minor bacterial pathogens -- PART III: BARSIC VIROLOGY. Introduction -- Structure -- Replication -- Genetics & gene therapy -- Classification of medically important viruses -- Pathogenesis -- Host defenses -- Laboratory diagnosis -- Antiviral drugs -- Viral vaccines -- Part IV: CLINICAL VIROLOGY. Introduction -- Herpesviruses, poxviruses, & human papilloma virus -- Respiratory viruses -- Important childhood viruses & viruses with an animal reservoir -- Viruses that infect the enteric tract -- Hepatitis viruses -- Arboviruses -- Tumor viruses -- Slow viruses & prions -- Human immunodeficiency virus -- Minor viral pathogens -- PART V: MYCOLOGY. Basic mycology -- Cutaneous & subcutaneous mycoses -- Systemic mycoses -- Opportunistic mycoses -- PART VI: PARASITOLOGY. Introduction -- Intestinal & urogenital--protozoa -- Blood & tissue protozoa -- Minor protozoan pathogens -- Cestodes -- Trematodes -- Nematodes -- PART VII: IMMUNOLOGY. Overview of immunity -- Innate immunity -- Adaptive immunity: lymphocyte antigen receptors -- Adaptive immunity: T-cell-mediated immunity -- Adaptive immunity: B cells & antibodies -- Major histocompatibility complex & transplantation -- Complement -- Antigen-antibody reactions in the laboratory -- Hypersensitivity (allergy) -- Tolerance & autoimmune disease -- Tumor immunity -- Immunodeficiency -- PART VIII: ECTOPARASITES. Ectoparasites that cause human disease -- PART IX: INFECTOUS DISEASES. Bone & joint infections -- Cardiac infections -- Central nervous system infections -- Gastrointestinal tract infections -- Pelvic infections -- Upper respiratory tract infections -- Lower respiratory tract infections -- Skin & soft tissue infections -- Urinary tract infections -- Sepsis & septic shock -- PART X: BRIEF SUMMARIES OF MEDICALLY IMPORTANT ORGANISMS -- PART XI: CLINICAL CASES -- PART XII: PEARLS FOR THE USMLE -- PART XIII: USMLE (NATIONSL BOARD) PRACTICE QUESTIONS -- PART XIV: USMLE (NATIONAL BOARD) PRACTICE EXAMINATION
"Review of Medical Microbiology and Immunology is a succinct, high-yield review of the medically important aspects of microbiology and immunology. It covers both the basic and clinical aspects of bacteriology, virology, mycology, parasitology, and immunology and also discusses important infectious diseases using an organ system approach. The book emphasizes the real-world clinical application of microbiology and immunology to infectious diseases and offers a unique mix of narrative text, color images, tables and figures, Q&A, and clinical vignettes"--Publisher's description
