Product Description
The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars.
Medical theory and practice of the 1700s developed rapidly, as is evidenced by the extensive collection, which includes descriptions of diseases, their conditions, and treatments. Books on science and technology, agriculture, military technology, natural philosophy, even cookbooks, are all contained here.

Product Description
Purchase includes free access to book updates online and a free trial membership in the publisher's book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Chapters: Scurvy, Pernicious Anemia, Iron Deficiency Anemia, Folate Deficiency, Megaloblastic Anemia, Plummer-Vinson Syndrome. Excerpt:Folate deficiency Folate deficiency is a lack of folic acid in the diet and the signs are often subtle. Symptoms Loss of appetite , and weight loss can occur. Additional signs are weakness , sore tongue, headaches , heart palpitations , irritability , and behavioral disorders. Women with folate deficiency who become pregnant are more likely to give birth to low birth weight and premature infants, and infants with neural tube defects . In adults, anemia (Macrocytic, Megaloblastic anemia ) can be a sign of advanced folate deficiency. In infants and children, folate deficiency can slow growth rate. Late studies suggested an involvement in tumorogenesis (especially in colon) through demethylation/hypomethylation of fast replicating tissues. Some of the symptoms can also result from a variety of medical conditions other than folate deficiency. It is important to have a physician evaluate these symptoms so that appropriate medical care can be given. Depression Studies have shown that folate and vitamin B-12 status play a role in depression . The role of vitamin B-12 and folate in depression is due to their role in transmethylation reactions, which are crucial for the formation of neurotransmitters (e.g. serotonin , epinephrine , nicotinamides, purines , phospholipids ). Low levels of folate or vitamin B-12 can disrupt transmethylation reaction, leading to an accumulation of homocysteine (hyperhomocisteinemia) and to impaired metabolism of neurotransmitters (especially the hydroxylation of dopamine and serotonin from tyrosine and tryptophan ), phospholipids, myelin, and receptors. Hyperhomocysteinemia could also lead to vascular injuries by oxidative mechanisms... ... Read more
