This book reviews the electrophysiological, genetic and immunological bases of some of the major neuromuscular diseases and evaluates their importance pertaining to the clinical management of the patients. Included are up-to-date topics such as gene therapy, myoblast transfer and new drug trials. Written by experts in their own fields, this volume will not only be of great value to neurologists and neuroscientists, but also to geneticists, immunologists and physiologists.
Neuromuscular disorders are diagnosed across the lifespan and create many challenges especially with infants, children and adolescents. This new edition of the definitive reference, edited by the established world renowned authorities on the science, diagnosis and treatment of neuromuscular disorders in childhood is a timely and needed resource for all clinicians and researchers studying neuromuscular disorders, especially in childhood. The Second Edition is completely revised to remain current with advances in the field and to insure this remains the standard reference for clinical neurologists and clinical research neurologists. The Second Edition retains comprehensive coverage while shortening the total chapter count to be an even more manageable and effective reference. - Carefully revised new edition of the classic reference on neuromuscular disorders in infancy, childhood and adolescence. - Definitive coverage of the basic science of neuromuscular disease and the latest diagnosis and treatment best practices. - Includes coverage of clinical phenomenology, electrophysiology, histopathology, molecular genetics and protein chemistry
Offering a concise, highly visual approach to the basic science and clinical pathology of the nervous system, this updated volume in The Netter Collection of Medical Illustrations (the CIBA "Green Books") contains unparalleled didactic illustrations reflecting the latest medical knowledge. Revised by Drs. Michael J. Aminoff, Scott L. Pomeroy, and Kerry H. Levin, Spinal Cord and Peripheral Motor and Sensory Systems, Part 2 of the Nervous System, Volume 7, integrates core concepts of anatomy, physiology, and other basic sciences with common clinical correlates across health, medical, and surgical disciplines. Classic Netter art, updated and new illustrations, and modern imaging continue to bri...
Spinal Cord and Peripheral Motor and Sensory Systems, Part 2 of The Netter Collection of Medical Illustrations: Nervous System, 2nd Edition, provides a highly visual overview of the anatomy, pathology, and major clinical syndromes of the nervous system, from cranial nerves and neuro-ophthalmology to spinal cord, neuropathies, autonomic nervous system, pain physiology, and neuromuscular disorders. This spectacularly illustrated volume in the masterwork known as the (CIBA) Netter "Green Books" has been expanded and revised by Drs. H. Royden Jones, Jr., Ted M. Burns, Michael J. Aminoff, Scott L. Pomeroy to mirror the many exciting advances in neurologic medicine - offering rich insights into ne...
This volume of proceedings includes the latest research on the pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment of myasthenia gravis and related diseases. It includes reports of progress in the study of the acetylcholine receptor molecule and its function as a ligand-gated ion channel. Further topics include the molecular events involved in presynaptic neurotransmitter release, postsynaptic antigens in autoimmune myasthenia gravis, the immune mechanisms involved in Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome, and genetically determined abnormalities of neuromuscular transmission.
Nowa książka popularyzatorki nauki i twórczyni profilu Patolodzy na klatce. Autorki bestsellera Patolodzy. Panie doktorze, czy to rak? Bardziej odrażające czy jednak fascynujące? Zawsze śmiertelnie niebezpieczne czy może czasem choć odrobinę zabawne? Wszelkie schorzenia, o których chcecie wiedzieć więcej, ale nie mieliście kogo zapytać: nowotwory i pasożyty, choroby weneryczne, niezwykłe defekty genetyczne, tajemnicze pozostałości rozwojowe i... zanikające nieużywane narządy (nie, nie, wcale nie chodzi o to, o czym myślicie). Paulina Łopatniuk zabiera nas w oszałamiającą podróż po zakamarkach ludzkiego ciała, a galeria opisywanych przez nią przypadków może przyprawić o zawroty głowy. Czy wiecie, że można chorować na nowotwór narządu, którego się nie ma? Że pewnymi nowotworami można się zarazić, a do rozwoju innych mogą się przyczynić pasożyty? Że można mieć kilka śledzion, ale ani jednej rzepki? Albo gdzie w naszym ciele kryją się najprawdziwsze sezamki? Mówią, że najważniejsze jest wnętrze. Mało kto wie o nim więcej niż patomorfolożka.
This book examines the use of biomedical signal processing—EEG, EMG, and ECG—in analyzing and diagnosing various medical conditions, particularly diseases related to the heart and brain. In combination with machine learning tools and other optimization methods, the analysis of biomedical signals greatly benefits the healthcare sector by improving patient outcomes through early, reliable detection. The discussion of these modalities promotes better understanding, analysis, and application of biomedical signal processing for specific diseases. The major highlights of Biomedical Signal Processing for Healthcare Applications include biomedical signals, acquisition of signals, pre-processing ...
