L'Adulte avec un trouble dys-exécutif

Les recommandations pour la prise en charge du trouble dys-exécutif s’adressent à l’enfant, afin de faciliter son éducation et sa scolarité. Le trouble s’améliore parfois avec l’avancée en âge, mais il reste très présent à l’âge adulte. Se pose alors la question de l’autonomie au quotidien en termes de professionnalisation, d’insertion sociale et de citoyenneté pour laquelle l’entourage doit souvent développer ses propres outils car rien n’est formalisé pour accompagner l’adulte.L’ouvrage aborde les différentes situations rencontrées par l’adulte dys-exécutif, des plus anodines de la vie quotidienne aux plus personnelles ou aux plus décisives quant à son style de vie, et propose des solutions pratiques et des conseils d’adaptation ou d’aménagements pour y faire face.Plus que chez l’enfant, les stratégies proposées pour aider l’adulte dys-exécutif dans sa prise d’autonomie sont pensées pour ménager sa personnalité et son libre arbitre.La description des différentes situations intègre à la fois le vécu de l’adulte dys-exécutif et celui d’autrui, en mettant l’accent sur les quiproquos et des interprétations erronées en fonction du contexte qui peuvent générer incompréhension et perte d’estime de soi.L’ouvrage interroge chacun, qu’il soit parent ou professionnel, sur ce que signifie réellement l’inclusion dans un environnement qui n’a pas les clés pour appréhender correctement les interactions avec l’adulte dys-exécutif, la définition de son projet de vie et le respect de sa volonté.

The Temporal Lobe, Volume 187 covers the exponential growth of studies on the relationships between brain and language/cognition, many of which involved the temporal lobe. This volume summarizes research on the anatomy and function of the temporal lobe under both normal and pathological conditions. In addition, it discusses the interactions of the temporal lobe with other brain structures. The book highlights the role of the temporal lobe in language processing as well as vision, object, face recognition and processing. The book also discusses the temporal lobe's role in reading, speech and the processing of color, music, action and memory. Temporal lobe disorders, assessments and treatments are also covered, including encephalitis, Alzheimer’s, epilepsy, Korsakov’s syndrome, and more.

In this issue of Neuroimaging Clinics, guest editor Dr. Tarik F. Massoud brings his considerable expertise to the topic of Neuroimaging Anatomy, Part 1: Brain and Skull. Anatomical knowledge is critical to reducing both overdiagnosis and misdiagnosis in neuroimaging. This issue is part one of a two-part series on neuroimaging anatomy that focuses on the brain, with each article addressing a specific area. The issue also includes an article on Brain Connectomics: the study of the brain’s structural and functional connections between cells.

Prolonged microgravity exposure during long-duration spaceflight (LDSF) produces unusual physiologic and pathologic neuro-ophthalmic findings in astronauts. These microgravity-associated findings collectively define the Spaceflight Associated Neuro-ocular Syndrome (SANS). In this book, the editors compare and contrast prior published work on SANS by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s (NASA) Space Medicine Operations Division with retrospective and prospective studies from other research groups. The book describes the possible mechanisms and potential etiologies for SANS, and provides an update and review on the clinical manifestations of SANS including: unilateral and bilateral optic disc edema, globe flattening, choroidal and retinal folds, hyperopic refractive error shifts, and focal areas of ischemic retina (i.e., cotton wool spots). The ocular imaging findings (e.g., retinal nerve fiber layer, optic disc, and choroidal changes on optical coherence tomography) of SANS is also described, including the intraorbital and intracranial findings on orbital ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging. The knowledge gaps for in-flight and terrestrial human research including potential countermeasures for future stud is also explored, including reports on the in-flight and terrestrial human and animal research being investigated by NASA and its partners to study SANS both prospectively and longitudinally and in preparation for future long duration manned missions to space including the moon, the asteroid belt, or Mars. We think this is a unique topic and hope that NASA and its research partners continue to study SANS in preparation for future longer duration manned space missions.

Introduction to Basic Aspects of the Autonomic Nervous System, Sixth Edition, Volume One is an all-encompassing reference on the autonomic nervous system's basic function, dysfunction and pathology. This volume describes the anatomy of the autonomic nervous system and its role in the regulation of blood pressure, body temperature, respiration, micturition, digestion and renal function. Additional chapters focus on the autonomic modulation of the neuroendocrine system, sexual function, and immunity. There is also a chapter on mummies and the autonomic nervous system. With these chapters, readers will gain extensive knowledge on the autonomic nervous system's anatomy, functional organization and neurochemistry, which is critical to care for patients with autonomic disorders and guide patient-oriented research.
