Drug-Induced Neurological Disorders - (Ed.) DrugInduced neurological disorders. Foreword by Bradley, WG. 2nd, revised and expanded edition 2001 488 pp. , hardcover US $79.00 / CAN $118.00 / Euro79.95 http://www.hhpub.com/books/isbn/0-88937-219-5.html
Extractions: (can be changed/cancelled at any time) This book is the first-ever sweeping review and analysis of the literature on drug-induced neurological disorders aimed at practicing neurologists. It presents an account of drug-induced neurological disorders which should be considered in the differential diagnosis of a wide range of neurological conditions. The orientation is the opposite of that found in the rest of the literature: Here, one begins with the clinical situation, and works backward to help determine whether and what medications are involved. A wide range of problems, including headaches, seizures, movement disorders, peripheral neuropathies, drug-induced sleep disorders, Guillain-Barré syndrome, and many others are discussed, with extensive links to other neurological influences of the drugs involved. Cross-references between drugs and adverse effects are therefore easily accomplished, assisted by the full index. From the reviews "This review of the literature involved the author in evaluating some 5,000 publications, and in the well organized 25 chapters of the book, some 3,000 references are cited. This indicates the enormous work-load involved in preparing a comprehensive work of this high quality... It has been a pleasure to review the book which will be appreciated by neurologists, general physicians, clinical pharmacologists and poison information centres alike. The book is highly recommended."

As researchers, neurologists carry on investigative and experimental work in such areas as conductivity, embryology, and the metabolism of nervous tissue. As practicing physicians, neurologists diagnose and treat diseases that involve the nervous system. Since the brain, spine, and eye are integral part of the nervous system, the domain of neurology overlaps that of psychiatry, orthopedics and ophthalmology. Current research is directed toward spinal cord injuries, brain tumors, reattachment of severed limbs, and the treatment of conditions generated by repetitive motions. The recent discovery of growth factors opens the possibility of healing or regenerating tissues of the nervous system.

Extractions: There is no known cure for PDD. Medications are used to address specific behavioral problems; therapy for children with PDD should be specialized according to need. Some children with PDD benefit from specialized classrooms in which the class size is small and instruction is given on a one-to-one basis. Others function well in standard special education classes or regular classes with additional support. What is the prognosis?

From Alzheimer's Disease to Narcolepsy, these are diseases that affect a person's daily functioning, whether it is due to extreme pain, excessive movement, memory loss, or muscle degeneration. Spotlight on Healthy Foods: BANANAS Bananas are a true brain food. They contain tryptophan, a protein that is used by the body to create the neurotransmitter serotonin. A lack of serotonin can lead to depression and other mood disorders. In fact, people have reported their moods being elevated and stress lessened after eating just one banana. The high potassium levels in bananas can improve brain function and alertness by sending oxygen to the brain. Explore the Neurological Disorders Section ALS
Extractions: Proneuron Biotechnologies is a biopharmaceutical company developing therapies for neurological disorders, including spinal cord injuries (SCI), brain trauma, and neurodegenerative diseases such as ALS, Huntingtons and Alzheimers diseases. The brain, spinal cord and optic nerves comprise the central nervous system (CNS) one of the most complex and enigmatic systems in nature. The CNS is responsible for consciousness, memory, intelligence, the five senses, and controlled movement. However, these functions may be disrupted by brain damage, spinal cord injury or disease, causing severe disability, such as paralysis, blindness, or loss of mental capabilities. The disability is often permanent because the CNS has a very limited capacity for healing and self repair. While there is no paralysis cure yet available to treat spinal cord injury, nor any cure for CNS trauma in general, scientists at the Weizmann Institute of Science and Proneuron have demonstrated that CNS recovery may be enhanced by applying the bodys own repair system, the immune system, which is actively involved in wound-healing in other parts of the body. In the quest for a paralysis cure, Proneuron is pursuing an aggressive research and development program based on proprietary immune-modulating technology. Proneuron's lead product is ProCord, an experimental cell therapy that is being developed to treat acute spinal cord injury. Besides spinal cord injuries, additional products are being developed for other debilitating neurological indications.

Extractions: Aphasia is a neurological disorder caused by damage to the portions of the brain that are responsible for language. Primary signs of the disorder include difficulty in expressing oneself when speaking, trouble understanding speech, and difficulty with reading and writing. Aphasia is not a disease, but a symptom of brain damage. Most commonly seen in adults who have suffered a stroke, aphasia can also result from a brain tumor, infection, head injury, or dementia that damages the brain. It is estimated that about 1 million people in the United States today suffer from aphasia. The type and severity of language dysfunction depends on the precise location and extent of the damaged brain tissue.
