Current Therapy in Allergy, Immunology and Rheumatology

This is a practical manual and deserves the place it has achieved in American medicine. From a conventional rheumatological point of view the chapters on rheumatic and connective tissue diseases offer a straightforward approach to the most important factors in treatment. There is a good and succinct account of the advantages and snags of rest, aspirin treatment, the use of splints, metatarsal bars, and all the currently used drug regimens. Reiter's syndrome, Sjogren's syndrome, and the cutaneous complications of connective tissue diseases are well discussed. There are also sections on drug reactions, renal problems, and amyloidosis. The reason for the combination of rheumatological and other immunological problems is another matter. As of January 1988, between one and two million people in the United States were thought to have been infected with HIV, and interest in the treatment of immunological diseases has been stimulated by a sharp increase in acquired immunodeficiency disease. This helps to explain the importance attached to all aspects of clinical immunology in the United States, and this book also provides a synoptic view of the treatment of conditions ranging from allergic rhinitis to rheumatoid arthritis, from urticaria to interstitial nephritis, and from pulmonary, aspergillosis to transplant rejection.
