  • Publisher: Elsevier

Cerebrospinal Fluid in Neurologic Disorders, Volume 146 provides a brief overview on the current use of CSF in clinical routine, the physiology of CSF, and its usefulness and potential as a biomarker. The second part addresses the main purpose of the volume, describing CSF from a research perspective in context with the most important diagnostic entities in neurology. The book's authors provide insight into the current understanding of CSF changes in these various conditions and what it tells us about the nature of neurological diseases. Furthermore, methodological aspects are discussed, as are shortcomings that need to be addressed. Finally, the book provides an outlook for potential directions that can be explored to improve the various aspects of CSF research with the ultimate goal of being incorporated in clinical practice. Provides a brief overview on the current use of CSF in clinical routine, the physiology of CSF, and its usefulness and potential as a biomarker Addresses relevant research in context with the most important diagnostic entities in neurology Edited by leading authors in CSF research from around the globe, presenting the broadest, most expert coverage available

Oxford Textbook of Sleep Disorders

There has been a rapid global increase in the number of individuals making sleep medicine their career, resulting in an explosive growth in the number of sleep centres and programmes, as well as an increasing number of sleep societies and journals. Part of the Oxford Textbooks in Clinical Neurology series, the Oxford Textbook of Sleep Disorders covers the rapid advances in scientific, technical, clinical, and therapeutic aspects of sleep medicine which have captivated sleep scientists and clinicians. This text aims to introduce sleep disorders within the context of classical neurological diseases, giving an in-depth coverage of the topic in a logical and orderly way, while emphasizing the pr...

Oxford Textbook of Neurohaematology

The Oxford Textbook of Neurohaematology is a single source of knowledge on the diverse neurological conditions associated with malignant and classical haematological diseases. The book covers the full range of haematological diseases, both malignant and classical, that impact the central, peripheral, and autonomic nervous systems. The book is divided into three sections. In the first section, neurological conditions associated with malignant haematological diseases are presented. This section begins with chapters on primary haematological malignancies of the nervous system including primary central nervous system lymphomas, vitreoretinal lymphoma, and other rare primary malignancies such as ...

Alzheimer’s Disease: Advances for a New Century

  • Publisher: IOS Press

This volume is a companion to the highly successful book published in association with the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease (JAD) on the centennial of Alzheimer’s discovery: “Alzheimer’s Disease: A Century of Scientific and Clinical Research”. Instead of looking back, this collection, “Alzheimer’s Disease: Advances for a New Century”, will look forward. Using scientometric analysis the most promising developments since the Alzheimer Centennial in 2006 have been substantiated. While prior trends and advances in genetics, amyloid-?, tau, neuropathology, and oxidative stress continue as active areas, emergent areas impacting the transition from normal cognition to Alzheimer’s disease such as diagnostic imaging, biomarkers, metabolism, and lifestyle (areas conceived only a few years ago) now dominate the debate. Invited contributors have summarized their landmark publications identified by our analysis and have put them into perspective, explaining the impetus behind the work, the contribution of the results to the field, and who played a role in the work.

Oxford Textbook of Neurologic and Neuropsychiatric Epidemiology

The Oxford Textbook of Neurologic and Neuropsychiatric Epidemiology focuses on the overlaps between neuro-epidemiological disorders. Harmonising cohort studies to determine causes related to rarer disorders, this key work is an invaluable reference to current neuro-epidemiological methods.

Network Spread Models of Neurodegenerative Diseases

It is a real pleasure to introduce the excellent papers contributed by leading experts to our Research Topic proposing various network models of dementia spread. The focus is strongly on disease-specific mathematical modeling rather than general graph theory. The emerging field of network neuroscience visualizes the brain as a graph consisting of nodes representing regions and edges as connections between them. This complex network supports efficient communication along neural projections, but also, unfortunately, the transmission and progression of Alzheimer’s and other neurodegenerative disorders. If we could know the brain’s network organization, could we then predict how degenerative processes might develop on this network? As these papers demonstrate, the answer is, increasingly, yes.

Oxford Textbook of Headache Syndromes

Headache syndromes rank amongst the most common presenting symptoms in general practice and neurology, affecting up to 15% of the adult population. Part of the Oxford Textbooks in Clinical Neurology series, the Oxford Textbook of Headache Syndromes provides clinicians with a definitive resource for diagnosing and managing patients with primary and secondary forms of headaches, either as isolated complaints or as part of a more complex syndrome. Split into 7 key sections with 59 chapters, this comprehensive work discusses the scientific basis and practical management of headache syndromes in a logical format. Each chapter is written by international experts in neurology who share their research and extensive experience by providing a wealth of practical advice for use in clinical situations. In addition, all content is up-to-date and chapters incorporate discussions on the latest International Classification of Headache Disorders 3rd edition when relevant.
