Genetics and Neurology by Sarah Bundey Pdf

Genetics and Neurology focuses on disorders that affect the nervous system, including atrophies, neuropathies, and tumors. The book first examines malformations of the central nervous system, phacomatoses and tumors, and cerebral degenerative disorders of childhood. Topics include malformations of the corpus callosum and neighboring structures; abnormalities of closure of neural tube; spongiform leucodystrophy; and tumors of the nervous system. The text then takes a look at extrapyramidal disorders and dyskinesias and muscle disorders. The publication elaborates on spinal muscular atrophies (SMAs), cerebellar and spinocerebellar ataxias, and hereditary neuropathies. Discussions focus on hereditary motor and sensory neuropathies of infancy and early childhood; peripheral neuropathies and lipid disorders; and congenital cerebellar ataxias. The book also discusses spastic paraplegias and multifactorial inheritance and neurological diseases. The text is a valuable reference for readers interested in genetics and neurology.

Neurogenetics by Anonim Pdf

Genetic methodologies are having a significant impact on the study of neurological and psychiatric disorders. Using genetic science, researchers have identified over 200 genes that cause or contribute to neurological disorders. Still an evolving field of study, defining the relationship between genes and neurological and psychiatric disorders is evolving rapidly and expected to grow in scope as more disorders are linked to specific genetic markers. Part I covers basic genetic concepts and recurring biological themes, and begins the discussion of movement disorders and neurodevelopmental disorders, leading the way for Part II to cover a combination of neurological, neuromuscular, cerebrovascular, and psychiatric disorders. This volume in the Handbook of Clinical Neurology will provide a comprehensive introduction and reference on neurogenetics for the clinical practitioner and the research neurologist. Presents a comprehensive coverage of neurogenetics Details the latest science and impact on our understanding of neurological psychiatric disorders Provides a focused reference for clinical practitioners and the neuroscience/neurogenetics research community

The Genetics of Neurological Disorders by Billy Acord Pdf

The field of neurogenetics explores the role of genetics in neurological disorders. Any structural, electrical and biochemical abnormality in the brain, spinal cord or other nerves can be termed as a neurological disorder. Neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease are a subset of neurological disorders. While the genetic influence on simple neurological diseases have been established, the genetics of complex disorders is a matter of significant research. Using genome wide association studies, the genetic variability within the human population and the associated link with diseases can be investigated. Research in neurogenetics strives to find strategies to reverse the progression of neurodegenerative disorders, which till date have no viable cure. The aim of this book is to present researches pertaining to the genetics of neurological disorders that can advance the understanding of neurological diseases and aid in their clinical management. It presents this complex study in the most comprehensible language. With state-of-the-art inputs by acclaimed experts of this field, this book targets students and professionals.
