Download or read book Disease Control Priorities Third Edition Volume 4 written by Vikram Patel and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2016-03-10 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mental, neurological, and substance use disorders are common, highly disabling, and associated with significant premature mortality. The impact of these disorders on the social and economic well-being of individuals, families, and societies is large, growing, and underestimated. Despite this burden, these disorders have been systematically neglected, particularly in low- and middle-income countries, with pitifully small contributions to scaling up cost-effective prevention and treatment strategies. Systematically compiling the substantial existing knowledge to address this inequity is the central goal of this volume. This evidence-base can help policy makers in resource-constrained settings as they prioritize programs and interventions to address these disorders.

Download or read book Neurological Disorders Advances in Neurology written by Billy Acord and published by American Medical Publishers. This book was released on 2021-11-16 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A neurological disorder is a condition of the nervous system that causes symptoms such as muscle weakness, loss of sensation, paralysis, poor coordination, seizures, altered levels of consciousness, confusion and pain. People with neurological disorders are susceptible to associated disability and suffering. The study, diagnosis and treatment of such disorders, fall within the scope of neurology and clinical neuropsychology. Neurological disorders may be classified based on the primary type of dysfunction involved, the primary location affected, or the primary cause. Brain disorders, spinal cord disorders, autonomic nervous system disorders, peripheral nervous system disorders, movement disorders, etc. are some of the categories in which neurological disorders are classified. Modern neurosurgery is guided by advanced neuroradiological imaging techniques. Open surgery, microsurgery, stereotaxy, endoscopic surgery, stereotactic radiosurgery, endovascular surgical neuroradiology, etc. are some of the techniques of neurosurgery. This book contains some path-breaking studies in diverse neurological disorders. It elucidates concepts and innovative models around prospective developments with respect to the diagnosis and management of such disorders. Students, researchers, experts and all associated with neurology will benefit alike from this book.

This book was released on 2014-05-31 with total page 682 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The brain is the most complex computational device we know, consisting of highly interacting and redundant networks of areas, supporting specific brain functions. The rules by which these areas organize themselves to perform specific computations have only now started to be uncovered. Advances in non-invasive neuroimaging technologies have revolutionized our understanding of the functional anatomy of cortical circuits in health and disease states, which is the focus of this book. The first section of this book focuses on methodological issues, such as combining functional MRI technology with other brain imaging modalities. The second section examines the application of brain neuroimaging to understand cognitive, visual, auditory, motor and decision-making networks, as well as neurological diseases. The use of non-invasive neuroimaging technologies will continue to stimulate an exponential growth in understanding basic brain processes, largely as a result of sustained advances in neuroimaging methods and applications.

Download or read book Neurological Disorders Advances in Medical Technology and Clinical Practice written by Particia Garcia and published by Foster Academics. This book was released on 2023-09-26 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A neurological disorder refers to a type of disorder that affects the nervous system. These disorders include multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease and other dementias, Parkinson's disease, brain tumors, epilepsy, neuroinfections, and cerebrovascular diseases. There are several signs and symptoms of these disorders, such as muscle weakness, seizures, loss of sensation, paralysis and poor coordination. Neurological disorders are diagnosed using a variety of medical techniques, including positron emission tomography (PET), electroencephalography (EEG), single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), computerized tomography (CT scan) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI scan). These medical technologies generate massive amounts of complex and high-dimensional data, which is a crucial source for planning therapies and treatments. Various advances in clinical practice and medical technologies are being developed, such as therapies with the potential to detect and treat Alzheimer's disease before its symptoms manifest, usage of stem cells for replacement therapy, and development of implantable wireless brain devices. This book unravels the recent studies on neurological disorders. It elucidates the advances in medical technology and clinical practice with respect to these disorders. Those in search of information to further their knowledge will be greatly assisted by this book.

Book excerpt: Continuing progress has been made in understanding the brain at the molecular, anatomic, and physiological levels in the years following the "Decade of the Brain," with the results providing insight into the underlying basis of many neurological disease processes. In Neuroscience in Medicine, Third Edition, a distinguished panel of basic and clinical investigators, noted for their teaching excellence, provide thoroughly updated and revised chapters to reflect these remarkable advances. Designed specifically for medical students and allied health professionals, this up-to-date edition alternates scientific and clinical chapters that explain the basic science underlying neurological processes and then relate that science to the understanding of neurological disorders and their treatment. These popular and now expanded "clinical correlations" cover, in detail, disorders of the spinal cord, neuronal migration, the autonomic nervous system, the limbic system, ocular motility, and the basal ganglia, as well as demyelinating disorders, stroke, dementia and abnormalities of cognition, congenital chromosomal and genetic abnormalities, Parkinson's disease, nerve trauma, peripheral neuropathy, aphasias, sleep disorders and myasthenia gravis. In addition to concise summaries of the most recent biochemical, physiological, anatomical, and behavioral advances, the chapters summarize current findings on neuronal gene expression and protein synthesis at the molecular level. Authoritative and comprehensive, Neuroscience in Medicine, Third Edition provides a fully up-to-date and readily accessible guide to brain functions at the cellular and molecular level, as well as clearly demonstrating their emerging diagnostic and therapeutic importance.
