- BookImran S. Khawaja, Thomas D. Hurwitz, editors.Summary: This text highlights the importance of common medical comorbidities and illuminates the salient points for treatment, diagnosis, and management of these conditions as they relate particularly to these special populations. Written by experts in both sleep medicine and psychiatry, the text takes a cutting-edge, reader-friendly approach to topics that include sleep disturbances in pregnancy, sleep tele-medicine, sleep disturbances related to difficulties in schools, and substance-induced disturbances. Each chapter follows a consistent format, making it an excellent tool for the busy clinician who is not able to sift through scientific literature or didactic texts. Sleep Disorders in Selected Psychiatric Settings is an excellent resource for all clinicians who may work with special populations struggling with sleep and psychiatric comorbidities, including psychiatrists, sleep medicine physicians, primary care and family medicine physicians, pediatricians, obstetrics/gynecologists, psychologists and all others.

Please Help?. - ArticleKhaleeli A.Pahlavi Med J. 1978 Apr;9(2):126-51.Myxoedema coma is a rare emergency needing prompt recognition and urgent treatment before diagnostic confirmation. The pathyphysiology, clinical features, differential diagnosis, investigations and treatment are described.
