Infections in Pregnancy Edited by Larry C. Gilstrap, III, M.D., and Sebastian Faro, M.D., Ph.D. Infections in Pregnancy provides the practicing clinician with precise guidelines for the management of these infections in the pregnant or breast-feeding patient. Featuring contributions from well-known investigators who have extensive experience treating obstetric patients with bacterial, viral, fungal, or parasitic infections, this manual focuses on providing the clinician with all the information needed to effectively deal with a wide range of both common and rare infectious diseases. Unique in that it concentrates on obstetric infections rather than infectious diseases of the female, the book covers herpes simplex, hepatitis, cytomegalic virus, and human papilloma virus in pregnancy. Sexually transmitted diseases such as gonorrhea, chlamydia, lymphogranuloma, syphilis, and scables are also examined. The work includes microflora of the genital tract, acute chorioamnionitis, soft tissue infection, postpartum endometritis, and group B streptococcal infection. Primarily for obstetricians and gynecologists, Infections in Pregnancy will also be of interest to physicians in family practice and internal medicine.

This guide provides a full range of updated, evidence-based norms and standards that will enable health care providers to give high quality care during pregnancy, delivery and in the postpartum period, considering the needs of the mother and her newborn baby. All recommendations are for skilled attendants working at the primary level of health care, either at the facility or in the community. They apply to all women attending antenatal care, in delivery, postpartum or post abortion care, or who come for emergency care, and to all newborns at birth and during the first week of life (or later) for routine and emergency care. This guide is a guide for clinical decision-making. It facilitates the collection; analysis, classification and use of relevant information by suggesting key questions, essential observations and/or examinations, and recommending appropriate research-based interventions. It promotes the early detection of complications and the initiation of early and appropriate treatment, including time referral, if necessary. Correct use of this guide should help reduce high maternal and perinatal mortality and morbidity rates prevalent in many parts of the developing world, thereby making pregnancy and childbirth safer.

The World Malaria Report 2015assesses global malaria disease trends and changes in the coverage and financing of malaria control programs between 2000 and 2015. It also summarizes progress towards international targets, and provides regional and country profiles that summarize trends in each WHO region and each country with malaria. The report is produced with the help of WHO regional and country offices, ministries of health in endemic countries, and a broad range of other partners. The data presented are assembled from the 96 countries and territories with ongoing malaria transmission, and a further five countries that have recently eliminated malaria. Most data are those reported for 2014 and 2015, although in some cases projections have been made into 2015, to assess progress towards targets for 2015.

Maternal-fetal medicine has evolved over the last three decades to become a well-established discipline. The current understanding of maternal physiology and pathophysiology has allowed us to obtain more accurate diagnoses and to provide more effective treatments of medical, surgical, and obstetrical maternal complications. More importantly, the fetus has become a distinct individual whose in utero environment has become much more accessible to study, diagnose, and treatment. Clinical Maternal-Fetal Medicine addresses the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of common medical and obstetrical maternal complications and fetal complications. It provides a concise and timely review of clinically relevant topics in this discipline. The textbook is a comprehensive reference covering the wide range of disciplines that make up maternal-fetal medicine.
