      Early Detection of Alzheimer’s Disease: Biological and Technological Advances aims to introduce to a wide audience the high global priority problem of detecting AD prior to dementia onset. According to the Alzheimer’s Association, 5.8 million Americans are living with Alzheimer’s and care costs will cost the nation approximately $290 billion (2019 Alzheimer’s Disease Facts and Figures). With the failure of recent AD drug trials, many hypothesize that by the time symptoms appear, it is too late to be treated. Early detection can offer benefits such as more choice of medications, ability to participate in clinical trials, more time for family and for care planning. This book outlines potential solutions to the above problem using opportunities arising from the technology revolution, advances in neuroscience, and molecular biology. Most importantly, it discusses a paradigm shift from a reactive to a proactive diagnostic approach, aiming to detect disease before occurrence of symptoms. Topics covered include the use of sensing technologies (e.g. smartphones, smartwatches, Internet of Things) to detect early disease-related changes, the application of data science (machine learning/AI) to extract otherwise invisible disease features from these datasets and the potential to personalize diagnosis based on tracking changes in individual behaviours. Advances in blood-based biomarkers, brain imaging, and the potential for early diagnosis to aid interventions (lifestyle, dietary, pharmacological) to delay future development of dementia are also discussed.

      Differentiating Factors in Alzheimer’s Disease: Gender, Ethnicity, Clinical and Treatment addresses the question why women differ from men in terms of their risk factors and how Alzheimer's disease can be prevented at the molecular level. This book reviews the epidemiology of Alzheimer's disease describing the differences in men's and women's brain anatomy and biochemistry that may account for why women are more likely to develop Alzheimer's disease. The authors offer actions that could help to prevent or slow the progression of Alzheimer's disease in addition to discussing the most recent pharmacological treatments.

      La collection « Elsevier Monographies » permet aux praticiens d’approfondir et d’actualiser leurs connaissances, en exposant les données fondamentales actuelles et leurs applications dans la pratique clinique.La maladie de Parkinson est, après la maladie d’Alzheimer, l’affection neurologique la plus répandue au sein de la population après 50 ans. Sa prévalence augmentant avec l’âge, surtout au-delà de 60 ans, on peut prévoir dès aujourd’hui qu’avec le vieillissement de la population, le nombre de patients ne cessera d’augmenter dans les années à venir.Modèle d’affection neurodégénérative, la maladie de Parkinson se manifeste de façon variable selon les patients et les stades d’évolution, bien au-delà des seuls troubles moteurs qui la caractérisent. Ces dernières années, la recherche a connu des avancées significatives, tant sur le plan de la compréhension des mécanismes physiopathologiques et génétiques que sur celui des stratégies diagnostiques et thérapeutiques.Cette cinquième édition, réalisée en collaboration avec les meilleurs spécialistes cliniciens et chercheurs francophones, propose une actualisation complète des connaissances, enrichie de neuf nouveaux chapitres. Cette nouvelle édition aborde ainsi des thématiques essentielles comme l’histoire et l’épidémiologie de la maladie, les innovations en électrophysiologie, la santé bucco-dentaire, les indications des injections de toxine botulique ou encore le rôle du pharmacien d’officine. De plus, une attention particulière a été portée à la démarche neuropalliative, aux dispositifs de soins à domicile et aux questions pratiques telles que le permis de conduire.Ce livre s’adresse aux praticiens et à tous les professionnels de santé, médicaux et paramédicaux, exerçant dans un service de neurologie ou concernés par la pathologie parkinsonienne : neurologues, internes préparant le diplôme d’études spécialisées de neurologie, neuropsychologues, psychiatres, rééducateurs, orthophonistes et kinésithérapeutes.PO...

      The Auditory Cerebellum: Function and Dysfunction focuses on the sensory and cognitive aspects of the cerebellum, with an emphasis on hearing, speech, music, speaking, and singing. This book fills the gap for information needed in audiology and auditory neuroscience, tinnitus, and developmental disorders with a strong auditory component. This book starts with a general overview on the connectivity between the cerebellum and auditory subcortical and cortical areas, including general cortical networks. There are several chapters devoted to the timing aspects of the cerebellum underlying speech and music perception as well as motor aspects in speaking and singing.Also discussed is the role of the cerebellum in hearing impairment, tinnitus, developmental disorders with a strong auditory component, including dyslexia, autism, attention deficit, and hyperactivity disorder. Dr. Jos Eggermont, a leading researcher in the field, uses a systems analysis approach that covers electrophysiology and neural imaging, both in animals and humans.
