Vascular management and care has become a truly multidisciplinary enterprise as the number of specialists involved in the treatment of patients with vascular diseases has steadily increased.
***INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER***From the New York Times bestselling author of The End of Alzheimer s comes a revolutionary new approach to preserve brain health, for life.
This edited volume offers the first overview and reflective discussion of how design can contribute to people's wellbeing and mental health in the context of dementia, mental illness and neurodiversity.
This detailed volume covers molecular biology, cellular biology, biomarkers, imaging, and neuropathological methods and techniques to explore multiple sclerosis (MS), with a special emphasis on disease models.
The successful previous volume on this topic provided a detailed benchwork manual for the most commonly used animal models of acute neurological injuries including cerebral ischemia, hemorrhage, vasospasm, and traumatic brain and spinal cord injuries.
The detrimental impacts of pain on the quality of our daily life have drawn increasing attention from researchers, health care providers, policymakers, and social workers.
The term "e;muscular dystrophy"e; (MD) describes a group of primary genetic disorders of muscle that often have a distinctive and recognizable clinical p- notype, accompanied by characteristic, but frequently not pathognomonic, pathological features.
As the presence of genetically modified animal models in research laboratories has multiplied, the role of genetic factors in the pathogenesis of brain disorders has become particularly important.
This volume aims to explore the latest developments in adeno-associated viral and lentiviral vectors as well as the gene therapy strategies for the most common neurological disorders, followed by chapters that include step-by-step guides to viral vector-based gene delivery in animal models used in the authors' laboratories.
Despite the difficulty in comparing clinic-based human tests with animal model testing, there is still great value in pursuing translational approaches, as tests and treatment strategies might be developed to improve brain function in humans suffering from neurological conditions and knowledge obtained from human behavioral studies can be used to further improve the animal models of behavioral analysis.
As fMRI technology has provided invaluable insights into the mechanisms through which the human brain works in healthy individuals and in patients with different neurological and psychiatric conditions, the study of brain function and even the monitoring of the effects of treatment have become more effective and efficient.
Alzheimer's disease and frontotemporal dementia, two of the most prevalent neurodegenerative diseases, are dreaded disorders that attack the neural networks underlying memory and personality, systems that make us who we are.
In the last decade, several different optical imaging techniques, either based on various voltage or calcium dyes, or more recently on modified fluorescent or bioluminescent proteins (genetically encoded) that are sensitive to calcium, have been developed to study neuronal activity, and especially groups of neurons, with the goal of mapping and deciphering the neural code underlying major neurophysiological functions.
'Authentic, heartbreakingly wonderful and refreshingly grounded - this book captures the internal neurodivergent experience with rare grace and warmth' - Camilla Pang'Tingles with the joy of being different.
Si è parlato molto di matematica negli ultimi anni, soprattutto in termini di necessità di un'istruzione applicata in tenera età, ad esempio nel caso dell'economia, come mezzo per preparare i minori al loro futuro impegno di cittadini.
"La historia de Luciano" es un largo camino, para algunos podrá medirse en pocos meses, quizás para otros solo algunos años, pero en mi caso fue casi una década, y se logra, solo transitándolo, con el amor y empuje de una madre, mejor aún de AMBOS PADRES, como en mi caso, conectados y unidos hacia un mismo fin, y el fin es perfecto, la superación y evolución de toda la familia.
Obgleich sich die größten Bedenken im Zusammenhang mit dieser Pandemie insbesondere auf die Folgen im Hinblick auf Atemwegsprobleme konzentrierten, haben die Fortschritte im Wissen über diese Krankheit es ermöglicht, die Auswirkungen zu verstehen, die über die Lungen hinausgehen und sogar dazu führen können, das Nervensystem anzugreifen.
Sebbene la principale preoccupazione relativa al COVID-19 riguardasse le sue conseguenze, soprattutto in termini di problemi respiratori, i progressi nella conoscenza di questa malattia hanno permesso di capire come i suoi effetti si estendono oltre i polmoni, e possono raggiungere ed influenzare il sistema nervoso.
