Handbook of Stroke Prevention in Clinical Practice
Despite major advances in the understanding of stroke mechanisms that have occurred over the past quarter century, stroke continues to rank among the leading causes of death and disability worldwide. Although currently it may be difficult to believe, early doubts were expressed as to whether inter ventions in risk factors for either coronary disease or stroke would actually lead to a reduction in the incidence of these disorders. However, large clini cal trials in hypertension, carotid disease, atrial fibrillation, and antithrombotic and antiplatelet therapies have effectively demonstrated the efficacy of these targeted interventions in reducing stroke incidence. More recently, after earlier...
Acute Ischemic Stroke
This focused book deals clearly and concisely with the principles of management of patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS). It emphasizes the published and verifiable evidence in support of these principles, and highlights the areas of limited evidence. Best evidence is provided for the current standard treatment of acute ischemic stroke, including intravenous chemical thrombolysis, intra-arterial approaches, blood pressure management, and anti-thrombotic therapy. More modern techniques are also described, such as the use of mechanical devices to evacuate a thrombus, induced hypertension, hyper-oxygenation (hyperoxia), and neuroprotective or neuroregeneration agents. Hallmark features incl...

Controversies in Stroke Care
Stroke is the leading cause of neurological morbidity and mortality and the third leading cause of mortality worldwide. In spite of several advances over the past two decades in acute stroke management, stroke prevention and neuroprotection, there is no clear consensus in any of the areas of diagnosis and management. This book offers a rational approach to the current diagnosis and treatment of stroke that individual physicians can apply to their practice.
Insulin Resistance, Hyperinsulinemia, and Associated Diseases
Insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia are recognized as risk factors in different diseases that have a considerable impact on human life. In addition, insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia can be linked to different pathophysiological conditions and can lead to moderate to severe complications. Investigation of the possible signaling mechanisms which link insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia to these diseases, or their complications will help to reduce or even prevent their development and progression. Moreover, searching for new treatment or prophylactic strategies will provide new options to improve the life quality of the patients.
Sex and Gender in Acute Care Medicine
This book focuses on the issue of sex and gender in the evaluation and treatment of patients in delivering acute medical care.

Translational Stroke Research
This volume sets a basis for effective translational research. Authored by experts in the field of translational stroke research, each chapter specifically addresses one or more components of preclinical stroke research. The emphasis is placed on target identification and drug development using state-of-the-art in vitro and in vivo assays, in combination with in vitro toxicology assays, AMDE and clinical design.
Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention - MICCAI 2014
The three-volume set LNCS 8673, 8674, and 8675 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 17th International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention, MICCAI 2014, held in Boston, MA, USA, in September 2014. Based on rigorous peer reviews, the program committee carefully selected 253 revised papers from 862 submissions for presentation in three volumes. The 100 papers included in the second volume have been organized in the following topical sections: biophysical modeling and simulation; atlas-based transfer of boundary conditions for biomechanical simulation; temporal and motion modeling; computer-aided diagnosis; pediatric imaging; endoscopy; ultrasound imaging; machine learning; cardiovascular imaging; intervention planning and guidance; and brain.
