La polyprescription est devenue la prise en charge habituelle des patients souffrant de formes graves et chroniques de troubles de l'humeur, d'anxiété, de psychose ou de troubles du comportement. Après les deux volumes devenus des classiques : Psychopharmacologie essentielle. Bases neuroscientifiques et applications pratiques et Psychopharmacologie essentielle. Le guide du prescripteur), ce nouvel ouvrage novateur de Stephen M. Stahl offre une vue d'ensemble des connaissances en psychopharmacologie et des stratégies de prises de décision, en intégrant les résultats d'essais fondés sur les preuves aux données de la clinique. Il adopte l'approche et l'état d'esprit d'un praticien et explique la façon dont les prescripteurs peuvent mettre en place une "psychopharmacologie sur mesure", adaptée aux besoins spécifiques de chaque patient. Quelle que soit leur expérience, les praticiens pourront ainsi affiner et améliorer leurs prescriptions et leurs prises en charge, en ciblant les manifestations des circuits neuronaux dysfonctionnels et les dimensions psychopathologiques, au-delà des diagnostics psychiatriques conventionnelsPrésenté sous une forme conviviale, pratique et en couleurs, avec des tableaux de synthèse, des encadrés et des vignettes cliniques concrètes, cet ouvrage est un guide précieux pour tous les praticiens qui prescrivent des psychotropes.

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.

Circadian rhythms, sleep and sleep disorders covers the topic in two sections focusing on basic science and clinical application. In the basic section, new developments and research findings focusing on basic circadian rhythm and sleep physiology in animals and humans is highlighted. The chapters are written in short mini-review formats in order to concisely describe the fundamentals, and current hot topics.The basic part starts with a chapter on the fundamentals and new discoveries on oscillating circuitries in the sleeping rodent and human brain. This sets the stage for chap 2, focusing on circadian and homeostatic aspects of human sleep regulation. Chap 3 extends these aspects to human cognition. The next chapter reports on visual and non-visual effects of light on human behavior, particularly endocrine and electrophysiological correlates. Chap 5 covers chronic sleep restriction effects on functional connectivity states. The last two chapters (6 and 7) give a broad overview on sleep modeling across physiological levels, with a focus on a quantitative model of sleep-wake dynamics based on the physiology of the brainstem ascending arousal system.The clinical section of the book describes the circadian rhythm sleep-wake disorders, from epidemiology to clinical picture and treatment. Disorders covered include delayed and advanced sleep phase syndrome, Irregular sleep-wake rhythm disorder, shift work disorder, restless legs syndrome, nocturnal eating syndrome, narcolepsy, and sleep apnea. Pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatments of insomnia are explored, as well as the role of sleep-wake modulation in the pathogenesis and clinical profile of neurodegenerative disorders, such as Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease.

Clinician’s Guide to Headache: Head, Neck and Face Pain Syndromes is a comprehensive reference that covers what headache specialists encounter in day-to-day headache practice settings. This practical volume is relevant as a primary reference for neurologists and other headache specialists looking for a resource on complex, acute headache management. Developments in the field are highlighted, including biologics and invasive and non-invasive neuromodulation. Chapters focus on anatomy and pathophysiology, neuroradiology, acute and chronic headaches, and clinically relevant sections on diagnosis and biases, consultation settings, placebos and nocebos, as well as the set-up of a comprehensive headache center.With a foundation based on recent developments in pathophysiology and anatomy, this volume provides an overview of headache disorders with a case-based approach.

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.

Auditory Cerebellum: Function and Dysfunction focusses on sensory and cognitive aspects of the cerebellum with an emphasis on hearing, speech, music, speaking and singing, aspects of cerebellar. This book fills the gap for information needed in audiology and auditory neuroscience, tinnitus and developmental disorders with a strong auditory component. Dr. Jos Eggermont, a leading researcher in the field, uses systems analysis approach covering electrophysiology and neural imaging, both in animals and humans. 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 and attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder.
