Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders
Fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASD) represent a range of physical, mental, and behavioral disabilities caused by alcohol use during pregnancy, or prenatal alcohol exposure (PAE). FASDs are considered to be one of the leading causes of developmental disability, with an estimated 2-5% of children being born with FASD each year in the world. Despite its high prevalence, FASD is often misdiagnosed or underdiagnosed, making intervention more challenging. A multidisciplinary team of providers who understand the diagnostic requirements is crucial for an accurate FASD diagnosis. This text provides a comprehensive, state-of-the art review of this field, and serves as a valuable resource for clini...
Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Covid-19 and the Caribbean, Volume 1
Caribbean countries have had to navigate multiple crises, which have tested their collective resolve through time. In this regard, the region’s landscape has been shaped by an interplay of vulnerability and resilience which has brought to the fore possibilities and contradictions. It is within this context that the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic must be considered. Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Covid-19 and the Caribbean, Volume 1: The State, Economy and Health provides a comprehensive, multi- and interdisciplinary assessment of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, using the Caribbean as the site of enquiry. The edited collection mobilises critical perspectives brought to bear on res...
C'est votre sexe qui fait la différence
Certaines maladies – Alzheimer, dépression – touchent plus les femmes. Mais, on trouve quatre fois plus d'autistes chez les garçons, et 20% de plus de cancers chez les hommes. Et s'il s'agissait d'une différence liée au sexe ? Pourtant, la recherche et la médecine font comme s'il n'y avait qu'un seul sexe, le mâle étalon... Le patient est en droit de s'interroger : une médecine " personnalisée " sans différencier les deux moitiés de l'humanité ? Les mêmes traitements pour tous malgré plus d'effets indésirables des médicaments chez les femmes, et pas de dépistage chez les hommes de l'ostéoporose, maladie " de femme " ? Au nom de la parité de genre, on voudrait gommer ce...
The Little Black Book of Neuropsychology
From translating the patient’s medical records and test results to providing recommendations, the neuropsychological evaluation incorporates the science and practice of neuropsychology, neurology, and psychological sciences. The Little Black Book of Neuropsychology brings the practice and study of neuropsychology into concise step-by-step focus—without skimping on scientific quality. This one-of-a-kind assessment reference complements standard textbooks by outlining signs, symptoms, and complaints according to neuropsychological domain (such as memory, language, or executive function), with descriptions of possible deficits involved, inpatient and outpatient assessment methods, and possi...
Factors Influencing Mammalian Kidney Development: Implications for Health in Adult Life
In this monograph the authors have emphasized a number of important concepts in mammalian kidney development. Emphasis has been put on methodology so that the reader can understand how certain results or conclusions were reached and what the optimal methods for reliable results to be obtained are. In addition, as well as descriptions of the morphology there is information on the genetic basis of the structural development. In addition much attention has been paid to how nephron number may be altered by changes in the environment of the developing kidney and to the consequences for the remaining nephron gene expression and kidney function when total nephron number is altered. The consequences for the health of the adult, upon the formation of an adult kidney with altered nephron number and (potentially) gene expression, can be quite serious. The epigenetic mechanisms by which such changes can occur are introduced as a very fertile field for future investigation.
