L’ouvrage• Devenu un « classique » dès sa première édition, l’Abrégé de neurologie présente, de façon claire, pratique et complète, les troubles neurologiques selon une approche sémiologique en s’appuyant sur l’anatomie et la physiologie et en intégrant les nouvelles connaissances apportées par la neuropsychologie et la neurogénétique. L’ouvrage décrit les affections neurologiques les plus fréquentes et propose une stratégie pour le diagnostic neurologique à la lumière de l’imagerie médicale et des explorations électrophysiologiques et métaboliques.• Cette 14e édition est entièrement revue et actualisée, en fonction notamment des évolutions des thérapeutiques et des méthodes diagnostiques. La structure de l’ouvrage a également été révisée, pour une meilleure lisibilité, en tenant compte des développements de certains sujets, et l’ajout de nouveaux chapitres : « Cervelet – Ataxies cérébelleuses », « Mouvements anormaux » et « Émotion, motivation, comportement et cognition ».• Cette nouvelle édition présente ainsi les connaissances actuelles en neurologie tout en conservant l’approche qui a fait la réputation de cet ouvrage : la place donnée la neurologie clinique et l’intégration de la sémiologie dans l’organisation structurelle et physiologique du système nerveux, dans le souci de les rendre compréhensibles pour tous.Le publicCet abrégé s’adresse aux étudiants de 2e et 3e cycles de médecine. Il intéressera également les neurologues et tous les praticiens confrontés à des symptômes ou à des troubles neurologiques.Les auteursJean Cambier † était membre de l’Académie de médecine et professeur de clinique neurologique.Maurice Masson est neurologue, professeur des universités.Catherine Masson est neurologue, praticien hospitalier.Henri Dehen † était professeur de neurologie.

Paraneoplastic Neurological Disorders, Volume 200 covers new, recent descriptions of autoantibodies against neuronal cell surface antigens (only partly associated with paraneoplastic disorders) and the introduction of new immuno-oncological drugs that can contribute to diseases that are pathogenetically indistinguishable from paraneoplastic syndromes. Besides investigating the pathogenetic mechanisms of these disorders, this book also explores what the introduction of new drugs used in immune checkpoint inhibitor cancer therapy are teaching us in terms of immunopathogenesis. Following sections present individual syndromes (phenotypical clinical manifestations) of the CNS, PNS, NMJ, and muscle.Finally, the book investigates the role of antibody markers that differentiate by cytoplasmic, nuclear, and neuronal cell surface reactivities. Side effects of the new immuno-oncological drugs increasingly used in cancer therapy are also covered.

Migraine Management, Volume 199 covers the effective treatment of migraines, including different subtypes of migraines in different patient populations. The classification and diagnostic criteria of common and uncommon subtypes of migraine is explored in detail, including childhood variants. An in-depth analysis of the pharmacology of acute and prophylactic agents is presented, along with an evidence-based review of pharmacologic management. This includes recently developed CGRP monoclonal antibodies and non-peptide small molecule CGRP antagonists. Advances in neuromodulatory treatments, both noninvasive and implantable are also critically reviewed.Finally, specific treatment-related issues in pregnancy and lactation and childhood as well as the elderly are covered. Issues related to the diagnosis and management of vestibular migraine and the co-morbid disorder of persistent postural-perceptual dizziness are also explored.

Handbook of Digital Technologies in Movement Disorders aims to unite these factors to provide a comprehensive guide to patient focused treatments for movement disorders. Sections cover an introduction to digital technologies, concepts, and terminologies, review various perspectives on technology in movement disorders, including patient and medical professionals, and present technologies used in detecting, measuring progression, and determining response to treatments. Additional chapters review the technology used in various treatments of movement disorders, including assistive and robotic technologies. Finally, the last section examines the challenges with technology, including privacy and other ethical issues. Over the past few years, there have been fundamental changes in the diagnosing and treating patients with chronic diseases, significantly affecting management of neurological movement disorders. In addition, the health and fitness sector developed several devices to better classify, track, and potentially treat chronic diseases. Both handling and interpreting these large datasets has been revolutionized, by machine and deep learning approaches, leading to new and more effective therapies, resulting in longer survival rates.

Succinct yet comprehensive, Aminoff's Diagnosis of Neuromuscular Disorders, 4th Edition, provides expert information and guidance on the clinical, electrodiagnostic, and imaging aspects of neuromuscular disorders. Fully updated, it reflects important advances in the field, including an improved understanding of the molecular and genetic basis of neuromuscular disease, an expanded use of next-generation genetic testing, refinements in electrodiagnosis, and the use of ultrasound imaging techniques to evaluate the peripheral nervous system. In-depth discussions of disease states, as well as the evidence supporting the use of electrodiagnostic and imaging techniques, moves this reference from simply answering the question “How?” to also answering “Why?”

**Selected for Doody’s Core Titles® 2024 in Psychiatry**Anatomy of Neuropsychiatry: The New Anatomy of the Basal Forebrain and Its Implications for Neuropsychiatric Illness, Second Edition, builds upon reprised classic chapters by Lennart Heimer and Gary Van Hoesen describing the cortical and subcortical structure and functional involvements of several functional–anatomical macrosystems in the human forebrain, the existence of which obviates the vaunted heuristic value of the “limbic system” concept in the study of motivation and emotion. New narrative brings in important historical, philosophical, and histotechnical contexts, integration with novel technologies (e.g., optogenetics) and structures (e.g., rostromedial tegmental nucleus), a deeper dive into the interactions of forebrain and prospective cerebellar macrosystems with the reticular core of the brain, and current viewpoints on the essential role of macrosystems in motion, motivation, emotion, cognition, and neuropsychiatric well-being.
