The Dissipative Mind: The Human Being as a Triadic Dissipative Structure
ISBN: 9781536167931 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Since the Nobel Laureate Ilya Prigogine's dissipative structures and the outstanding work by Maturana and Varela, an exhaustive idea of what human mind is has lost its fascinating value and did not fund an epistemology anymore, falling down in the abrupt concept of a machinery or a mechanism. A failure, somehow, in interpreting what is life and the human being, arose from the dismiss of a sound epistemology or a basilar philosophic foundation of biology, which yet found an interesting contribution with Maturana's and Varela's scientific efforts. In this book, we attempted to build a new...

Spasticity: Causes, Diagnosis and Treatment
ISBN: 9781536178784 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This compilation focuses on spasticity, a condition which results in an abnormal increase in muscle tone caused by injury of nerve pathways within the brain responsible for muscle movement control. The authors assess the effectiveness of extracorporeal shock wave therapy, a promising new non- invasive method, in the reduction of muscle spasticity. Selective dorsal rhizotomy, a successful neurosurgical technique for spasticity treatment, is subsequently described. In the postoperative phase, rehabilitation plays an essential role, supplemented by possible corrective orthopedic interventions....

Young People, Adults and Autism Spectrum Disorder
ISBN: 9781536180299 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Autism Spectrum Disorder is a lifelong disorder. Autism represents a difference in the style of thinking and information processing from that typically experienced. As thinking and information processing is intimately linked with behaviour the symptoms, or behavioural expression, of autism change as people move from childhood into adulthood. This book explores the challenges for the minority group of people with autism as they live amongst the numerically dominant population of typical thinkers in a society largely structured around typical thinking. Anxiety is commonly experienced but not...

Textbook of Trigeminal Neuralgia
ISBN: 9781536181302 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is a condition that can cause intense facial pain sometimes so severe it can interfere with the normal activities of daily living. Brief, painful episodes may be triggered by chewing, talking, smiling, brushing teeth, shaving, or light pressure on the face. The pain may be sudden, intense, and sporadic (off and on). It also may be more constant but less severe. Usually, TN affects only one side of the face but can rarely be bilateral also. The approximate prevalence of the condition is 3-6 per 100,000 populations with slight female predominance. The condition can be...

Neurochemistry of Metabolic Diseases: Lysosomal Storage Diseases, Phenylketonuria, and Canavan Disease
ISBN: 9781536183399 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Metabolic disorder caused by altered levels of metabolism resulting pathophysiological abnormalities often leads to childhood death. Several new developments on metabolic diseases research have been emerging. Gaucher disease is a lysosomal storage disorder caused by glucocerebrosidase gene mutations resulting glucocerebrosidase deficiency. Current studies show that the same gene mutations also contribute to the Parkinson's disease. Tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) has been widely used in treating patients with Phenylketonuria over a decade. Recent studies reveal that patients treated with BH4 over...

Understanding and Treating Small Vessel Disease
ISBN: 9781536189445 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) silently affects a large part of the population, increasing in prevalence with age and with the presence of vascular risk factors. Its harmful effects on brain parenchyma increase the risk of stroke, cognitive decline and dementia, and it is responsible for a spectrum of symptoms that are much less obvious, such as unrecognized mild signs or symptoms of neurocognitive dysfunction, mild mood or behavioral disturbances, gait dysfunction, and a general decline in function generally attributed to normal aging. These consequences pose a heavy burden on...

Bioactive Nutraceuticals for Brain Disorders
ISBN: 9781536194630 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Over the past several years research concerning brain health and nutraceuticals has received much attention due to their potential neuroprotective properties and few or no side effects. Nutraceuticals exert copious effects in several biological processes, including antioxidant defenses, cell proliferation and differentiation, gene expression, signal transduction, and safeguarding of mitochondrial integrity. It is very likely that the brain health of an individual is affected by his or her dietary pattern. Intake of a well-nourished diet in the earliest stages of life builds a strong...
