Abstract:
The main epithelial malignancy arising in the nasopharynx is nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Although rare throughout most of the world, NPC has a unique geographic distribution, with high-risk endemic areas in southern China and parts of Southeast Asia, intermediate incidence rates elsewhere in Southeast Asia, North Africa, the Arctic, the Middle East, and among Asian and Pacific Islander migrants, and very low risk in other areas. The great majority of NPC cases worldwide are non-keratinizing tumors; these predominate in endemic, high-incidence areas and comprise up to half of tumors in low-

Abstract:
Yellow fever is an acute mosquito-borne flavivirus infection characterized in its full-blown form by fever, jaundice, albuminuria, and haemorrhage. Two forms are distinguished: urban yellow fever in which the virus is spread from person to person by peridomestic Aedes aegypti mosquitoes and jungle (sylvan) yellow fever transmitted by tree-hole breeding mosquitoes between non-human primates and sometimes humans. Yellow fever is endemic and epidemic in tropical areas of the Americas and Africa but has never appeared in Asia or the Pacific region. Prevention and control are effected principally t

Abstract:
The imaging of fungal infection is diverse and often non-specific with multiple abnormalities commonly identified, frequently with more than one organ involved. By correlating the clinical information, which should include patient immune status, pre-existing chronic disease, and potential exposure to endemic fungi, and using this information with an awareness of the radiographic findings of fungal infection, a potential diagnosis can be ascertained. In this chapter, the imaging of fungal infection is discussed, concentrating on the various imaging modalities available, their role, and the majo

Abstract:
Invasive fungal disease can present without localization or obvious target organ involvement. These disseminated mycoses occur predominantly in patients who are immunocompromised, particularly from haematological malignancy and HIV. Candidiasis and aspergillosis are the commonest forms of disseminated fungal infection worldwide, but an increasing number of non-Candida yeasts and non-Aspergillus moulds have emerged as important causes of invasive disease in recent years. Endemic fungi such as Histoplasma capsulatum are important causes of invasive disease within limited geographic regions. Feve

In the developed countries, over 90% of the bladder cancer cases are transitional cell carcinoma (TCC), with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), adenocarcinomas, and rare types of bladder cancer comprising the remaining 10% of bladder cancer cases. In Western regions, pure SCC of the bladder constitutes 1.2–4.5% of all bladder tumours. SCC can occur in both non-bilharzial and bilharzial bladders; the two subtypes differ in epidemiology, pathogenesis, and clinical outcome. Squamous cell carcinoma in the bilharzial bladder is an endemic disease in many regions of the Middle East, Africa, Southeast As

Abstract:
In a globalized scenario where widespread international travel allows viral agents to migrate from endemic to non-endemic areas, health care providers and critical care specialists must be able to readily recognize a suspected case of viral haemorrhagic fever (VHF). Early suspicion is pivotal for improving patient outcome and to ensure that appropriate biosafety measures be applied. VHFs are acute febrile illnesses marked by coagulation disorders and organ specific syndromes. VHFs represent a great medical challenge because diseases are associated with a high mortality rate and many VHFs have

Numerous zoonotic diseases cause morbidity, mortality and productivity losses in both humans and animal populations. Recent studies suggest that these diseases can produce large societal impacts in endemic areas. Estimates of monetary impact and disease burden provide essential, evidence-based data for conducting cost-benefit and cost-utility analyses that can contribute to securing political will and financial and technical resources. To evaluate burden, monetary and non-monetary impacts of zoonoses on human health, agriculture and society should be comprehensively considered. This chapter re

Fungal respiratory infections are important causes of morbidity and mortality in immunocompromised patients. Invasive aspergillosis remains the most common invasive fungal infection whereas other filamentous fungi, such as Fusarium spp., Mucorales, and Scedosporium spp., are increasing in frequency, particularly in neutropenic hosts. Endemic mycoses, including those due to Histoplasma capsulatum, Coccidioides spp., and Talaromyces marneffei, are increasingly prevalent in patients with cell-mediated immunodeficiencies in respective geographic regions.

Fungal infections are the most common opportunistic infections occurring in HIV-infected patients, though their incidence has decreased dramatically with the introduction of combination antiretroviral therapy (cART). Most cases occur in untreated/non-compliant patients or patients whose multiple antiretroviral regimens have failed. They are a good marker of the severity of cellular immunodepression.

Abstract:
Fungi, comprising yeasts, moulds, and higher fungi, have a worldwide distribution and are uncommon causes of disease in healthy individuals. However, over the last 20 years, invasive fungal disease (IFD) has become an increasing cause of morbidity and mortality. This is probably due to the increasing numbers of patients with underlying host conditions, which predispose to opportunistic IFD (e.g. transplant and anti-tumour necrosis factor immunosuppression, HIV, or chronic lung disease), and to increased recognition of endemic IFD (e.g. histoplasmosis), which cause disease in both immunocompete

American trypanosomosis is due to infection with Trypanosoma cruzi (Protozoa, Kinetoplastidae). This is a widespread parasite of small mammals and marsupials throughout most of the Americas, roughly from the Great Lakes of North America (approx. 42 ° N) to southern Argentina (approx. 46 ° S). It is mainly transmitted by blood-sucking bugs of the subfamily Triatominae (Hemiptera, Reduviidae) which are widespread in the Americas, but rare in the Old World. Except in some research laboratories, and infected immigrants from Latin America, T.cruzi has not been reported from the Old World, although

Histoplasmosis is a disease caused by the fungus Histoplasma capsulatum. This disease is highly endemic in some regions of North America, Central America, and South America and is also reported in certain countries of Asia and Africa. It often affects people with impaired immunity, including people living with HIV, among whom the most frequent clinical presentation is disseminated histoplasmosis. The symptoms of disseminated histoplasmosis are non-specific and may be indistinguishable from those of other infectious diseases, especially disseminated tuberculosis (TB), thus complicating diagnosi

Abstract:
It is obvious that the process of developing cancer—oncogenesis—is a multistep process. We know that smoking, obesity, and a family history are strong independent predictors of developing malignancy; yet, in clinics, we often see that some heavy smokers live into their nineties and that some people with close relatives affected by cancer spend many years worrying about a disease that, in the end, they never contract. For many centuries scientists have struggled to understand the process that make cancer cells different from normal cells. There were those in ancient times who believed that tumo
