,Everyday rheumatologists are faced with new challenges pertaining to the
management of both common as well as uncommon rheumatic disorders. The
series, Contemporary Rheumatology, will explore new frontiers in rheumatology. It
will cover both basic and clinical sciences and provide a state-of-the art approach to
the diagnosis and management of different inflammatory as well as non-inflammatory
conditions. This series will highlight emerging fields, treatments, and research in
rheumatology from precision medicine to the use of cannabinoids in treatment of
rheumatic diseases. By gathering key information on state-of-the-art care for
practitioners of rheumatology, this series aims to support clinicians in developing
new treatment plans for patients diagnosed with rheumatic diseases typically treated
with more traditional approaches. In addition to demystifying newer technology and
research in rheumatology, this series will also explore connections between
rheumatic diseases and other disorders and medical specialties, such as osteoporosis
in renal failure, the genetic factors to rheumatic diseases, and the bridge between
rheumatic disease and sexual health. Patients with rheumatic conditions may be at
increased risk for other chronic diseases, and it is crucial to those patients to have
informed clinicians across specialties. These volumes will enable physicians outside
the realm of rheumatology to better treat patients in their care who also suffer from
rheumatic diseases. Research in rheumatology moves quickly, and there is continued
focus on advancements in research and treatment. This series provides space in the
rheumatology book program at Springer to track progress made in the field with
series editor Dr. Yasser El Miedany, a leader in rheumatology, and continually
provide state-of-the-art titles in the area.
