  • Diététique en pratique médicale courante

    55 fiches repas téléchargeables
    • 3rd Edition
    • Jean-Louis Schlienger
    • French
    La diététique a de tout temps été l’une des branches majeures de la médecine. Confortée par les avancées physiopathologiques, les enquêtes épidémiologiques et les études d’intervention randomisées, la diététique participe à la thérapeutique, avec la pharmacologie dont elle consolide les actions et permet parfois d’en différer la mise en oeuvre. La diététique a un rôle en prévention primaire, elle participe du traitement de nombreuses maladies et constitue parfois le traitement exclusif comme dans certaines maladies innées du métabolisme ou la maladie coeliaque. Cependant, le recours à la prescription diététique est souvent lent et complexe en ce qu’elle fait référence à un savoir-faire reposant sur la maîtrise de connaissances spécifiques. Cette troisième édition, actualisée et enrichie, fait également le point sur, notamment : les aliments ultra-transformés, les additifs, les procédés culinaires (à risque et favorables), les modèles alimentaires et la dimension éthique dans l’alimentation ; les nouveaux objectifs du PNNS, l’état nutritionnel de la population française et le végétarisme ; les complications et les carences nutritionnelles après une chirurgie bariatrique ; la stéatose et la stéatohépatite non alcoolique ; le jeûne thérapeutique et les régimes hypotoxiques. Ce manuel donne ainsi aux médecins et aux diététicien(ne)s les clefs pour élaborer une intervention diététique efficace et pertinente. Des fiches diététiques pour les prescripteurs facilitent également l’applicabilité du régime décrit dans chaque situation : équilibre alimentaire, maladies métaboliques, digestives, cardiovasculaires ou rénales, cancers ou intolérances alimentaires, etc.

  • Evaluer les troubles du spectre de l'autisme

    • French
    La communauté médicale s’accorde sur la nécessité de poser un diagnostic précis et précoce des troubles du spectre de l’autisme, sur l’importance de mesurer les habiletés et capacités de chaque personne et de disposer d’une évaluation individualisée pour la prise en charge la plus adaptée et le suivi de chaque patient, tant les troubles du spectre de l’autisme peuvent différer d’une personne à l’autre et évoluer selon l’âge. L’ouvrage Évaluer les troubles du spectre de l’autisme constitue en cela une référence à la fois théorique et clinique pour l’évaluation exhaustive du trouble du spectre de l’autisme (TSA) et les différents aspects du fonctionnement, y compris chez le nourrisson ou le très jeune enfant, que ces aspects soient liés à l’âge, au comportement social, au discours, langage et communication, au fonctionnement intellectuel et neuropsychologique, aux affections psychiatriques comorbides ou qu’ils impactent le fonctionnement scolaire. Des études de cas facilitent l’utilisation de ces outils d’évaluation par tous les intervenants de la prise en charge, et l’ouvrage ouvre sur les évolutions à venir dans le domaine de l’évaluation et de la prise en charge. Cet ouvrage de Sam Goldstein (neuropsychologue en pédiatrie et professeur adjoint du département de Psychiatrie de l’université d’Utah) et Sally Ozonoff (psychologue clinicienne et professeur au département de Psychiatrie et Sciences du comportement de l’université de Californie-Davis) est traduit par Marc-Antoine Crocq (médecin psychiatre, centre hospitalier de Rouffach, maison des adolescents du Haut-Rhin, centre d’accueil médico-psychologique de l’Université de Haute-Alsace, Mulhouse) et Alexis Étienne Boehrer (psychologue clinicien, Université de Haute-Alsace).
