Diseases of the Sinuses
The comprehensive nature of this text will appeal To many physicians, the study of sinus disease to a wide range of physicians including generalists, reflects a discipline only slightly less interesting otolaryngologists, and allergists. Family physi than a Johnson and Johnson gauze pad, a pursuit cians, internists, pediatricians, and allergists will followed by dilettanti and eccentric professors. To each profit from having a single source that pro others, it represents a subsection of an undefined vides an in-depth review of topics pertaining to discipline that crosses barriers of internal medi sinus diseases. The otolaryngologist will benefit cine, pediatrics, allergy, chest disease, and ...
Alzheimer's Disease
Alzheimer's Disease is an ever present problem affecting millions of people around the world and, as people's average lifespan lengthens, its prevalence is set to increase. A global effort is needed to combat the disease, including research to investigate the causes, development of effective treatments and, ultimately, prevention of the disease. Published every two years, these timely books discuss the very latest research. This new volume provides a unique source of reference to the important work being done in this field, it gives academics and clinicians an opportunity to learn about cutting edge developments and covers all aspects of Alzheimer's Disease, including diagnosis, clinical course, epidemiological course and therapeutics and disease mechanisms. Alzheimer's Disease: Advances in Etiology, Pathogenesis and Therapeutics will provide essential information for basic and clinical researchers in Alzheimer's Disease and other dementias as well as for those who care for patients.
Handbook of Normative Data for Neuropsychological Assessment
When Handbook of Normative Data for Neuropsychological Assessment was published in 1999, it was the first book to provide neuropsychologists with summaries and critiques of normative data for neuropsychological tests. The Second Edition, which has been revised and updated throughout, presents data for 26 commonly used neuropsychological tests, including: Trailmaking, Color Trails, Stroop Color Word Interference, Auditory Consonant Trigrams, Paced Auditory Serial Addition, Ruff 2 and 7, Digital Vigilance, Boston Naming, Verbal Fluency, Rey-Osterrieth Complex Figure, Hooper Visual Fluency, Design Fluency, Tactual Performance, Wechsler Memory Scale-Revised, Rey Auditory-Verbal learning, Hopkins...
Modifying Bitterness
Only recently has bitterness control become of commercial importance to a food or pharmaceutical formulation chemist. Over the years, an increasing interest in more palatable food and beverage products with low fat and low sugar content has arisen, thus creating a market need for the control of bitterness perception. This is the first, comprehensive treatment of this subject in book form. Organized primarily by ingredients or processing approaches affecting the bitter taste reduction or inhibition, this thorough review includes an in-depth and thoroughly referenced review of mechanisms, ingredients and applications of bitter taste reduction or inhibition.
Semantic Memory for Olfaction and Vision in Patients with Alzheimers's Disease, Huntington's Disease, and Normal Individuals
Semantic memory has been shown to deteriorate in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD), presumably due to damage to the neocortical structures, specifically the association cortices of the temporal lobes (Terry & Katzman, 1983). Patients with Huntington's disease (HD), however, do not show the same pattern of semantic memory deficits, possibly since the greatest brain damage is found in the striatum. AD and HD patients show deficits on a variety of olfactory tasks, but their pattern of performance differs somewhat, especially for odor memory. Given that AD patients show impaired semantic memory and olfactory functioning, it was hypothesized that semantic memory for olfaction would be compro...
Taste and Smell Disorders
Approximately two million Americans suffer from taste & smell disorders. This much-needed book provides complete information on the pathophysiology, anatomy, biochemistry, patient evaluation, & treatment of chemosensory disorders. More than a dozen new topics are covered, including:
Eyeblink Classical Conditioning to an Olfactory Stimulus in Older Adults, Patients with Alzheimer's Disease and Older Adults at Risk for Alzheimer's Disease
The goal of this study was to demonstrate eyeblink classical conditioning (EBCC) to an olfactory stimulus and apply this technique to patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and those at-risk for AD by virtue of genetic status. A total of 95 people participated in this research: 15 people diagnosed with AD and 80 normal control participants, 28 of whom were carriers of the [special characters omitted]4 allele of apolipoprotein-E. Study 1: The goal of the first study was to determine whether humans could acquire a conditioned response (CR) to an olfactory conditioned stimulus (CS). Ten control subjects were tested in an EBCC delay paradigm with an olfactory CS. Results indicated that participa...
Olfaction, Taste, and Cognition
The human body has developed complex sensory processing systems which manifest themselves in our emotions, memory, and language. This book examines such olfactory and gustatory cognition. Leading experts have written chapters on many facets of taste and smell, including odor memory, genetic variation in taste, and the hedonistic dimensions of odors.
