An eye-opening guide that boils down common health problems to nine simple causes and offers the relief readers have been searching for. An expert in combining both traditional and alternative medicine, Dr. Teitelbaum explains that tackling nine wholly preventable causes is the key to long-term, real relief from nagging health concerns. Real Cause, Real Cure unearths the underlying causes of more than 50 health problems, steering readers toward cost-effective, safe, and easy remedies to combat woes ranging from acne and food allergies to diabetes and cancer. Readers will discover how getting a full night's rest can combat heart disease, diabetes, depression, heartburn, weight gain, and chronic pain; how adding exercise to one's daily routine not only prevents an expanding waistline, but also wards off Alzheimer's, fibromyalgia, insomnia, and stroke; and how drugs taken to improve our health are a major culprit in why we keep getting sick. This user-friendly guide takes the confusion out of personal health care so readers can enjoy a life free of needless prescriptions, doctors' offices, and irritating health issues.

Cryptorchidism is the failure of one or both testes to descend into the scrotum at birth or shortly thereafter, depending on species, or the ascent of previously descended testes later in life. It is the commonest of all congenital conditions in the human representing between 1 and 9% of all male babies born. It is also common in domestic species such as pigs, dogs and horses. Importantly, cryptorchidism is seen as a sentinel of fetal well-being and is associated with other less common ailments such as testis cancer and hypospadias as part of the testicular dysgenesis syndrome (TDS), as well as being linked to maternal smoking and intrauterine growth restriction. It also likely results from maternal exposure to endocrine disrupting chemicals. Surprisingly, we know relatively little about its immediate causes although deficits in fetal hormonal signaling through INSL3 or testosterone and complex genetic susceptibility seem to be involved. The testes may be affected unilaterally or bilaterally with anatomical arrest anywhere between the abdomen to just above the scrotum. Significantly, we need to distinguish between the consequences of cryptorchidism simply due to retention of the testes within the body cavity at abdominal rather than scrotal temperature, and those sequelae which share a common fetal cause. The former are largely correctable by early orchidopexy. In this Research Topic we aim to bring together a broad selection of articles (reviews, original research articles, commentaries and hypotheses) from the leading experts in the field, discussing all aspects of this common congenital condition, and throwing light on its genetic and environmental causes including its relationship to TDS and the biological mechanisms involved, its sequelae, and how these relate to optimal treatment.

Originally published by Oxford in 1998, Psycho-Oncology was the first comprehensive text in the field and remains the gold standard today. Edited by a team of leading experts in psycho-oncology, spearheaded by Dr. Jimmie C. Holland, the founder of the field, the text reflects the interdisciplinary nature and global reach of this growing field. Thoroughly updated and developed in collaboration with the American Psychosocial Society and the International Psycho-oncology Society, the third edition is a current, comprehensive reference for psychiatrists, psychologists, oncologists, hospice workers, and social workers seeking to understand and manage the psychological issues involved in the care of persons with cancer and the psychological, social, and behavioral factors that contribute to cancer risk and survival. New to this edition are chapters on gender-based and geriatric issues and expanded coverage of underserved populations, community based programs, and caregiver training and education.
