Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years there have been significant advances in the knowledge of risk factors, gene-environment interactions, incidence, prevalence, outcomes, and prevention strategies of many neurological disorders. These advances have been accompanied by developments in study design methodologies and statistical analysis. This handbook bridges the gap between current neuroepidemiological knowledge and its evidence-based application in everyday practice.

Book excerpt: Neuroepidemiology covers the foundations of neuroepidemiological research and the epidemiology of disorders primarily affecting the nervous system, as well as those originating outside the nervous system. The etiology of many important central nervous system disorders remains elusive. Even with diseases where the key risk determinants have been identified, better prevention and therapy is needed to reduce high incidence and mortality. Although evolving technologies for studying disease provide opportunities for such, it is essential for researchers and clinicians to understand how best to apply such technology in the context of carefully characterized patient populations. By paying special attention to methodological approaches, this volume prepares new investigators from a variety of disciplines to conduct epidemiological studies in order to discern the etiologic factors and underlying mechanisms that influence the onset, progression, and recurrence of CNS disorders and diseases. The book also provides current information on methodological approaches for clinical neurologists seeking to expand their knowledge in research. Includes coverage of the foundations of neuroepidemiological research and the epidemiology of disorders primarily affecting the nervous system, as well as those originating outside the nervous system Describes the most recent methodologies to define and quantify the burden of CNS disorders and to understand the underlying mechanisms, with neuroimaging and molecular methods receiving particular emphasis Offers extensive description of those neurological conditions that are secondary to other diseases whose incidence is on the rise because of longer survival rates Features chapters authored by leaders in the field from around the globe

The book focuses on classic principles of study design in epidemiologic research, strategies for avoiding study biases, methods for conducting clinical trials and prognostic studies, and principles of evidence-based medicine in neurology. The text gives neurologists, epidemiologists, and their students the foundation for conducting rigorous epidemiologic and clinical research on neurologic disorders.

Book excerpt: Clinical Neuroepidemiology of Acute and Chronic Disorders explores the epidemiology of disorders that affect the nervous system, providing comprehensive discussions on incidence, prevalence, and more. With thorough coverage of a variety of disorders, chapters detail etiology, risk factors, pathophysiology, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, global incidence and prevalence, age-specific incidence, global mortality, prevention, treatment and prognosis for each disorder. Chapters uniquely discuss the effects of the COVID-19 coronavirus upon the nervous system and in relation to several diseases, including new discoveries and treatments for Alzheimer’s disease and migraine headaches. Real-world case studies with critical thinking questions and "Focus On" boxes highlight important information.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neuroepidemiology is a branch of epidemiology involving the study of neurological disease distribution and determinants of frequency in human populations. Neuroepidemiology has been perceived for a long time as a science of incidence, prevalence, risk factors, natural history and prognosis of neurological disorders. However, the other integral part of neuroepidemiology is experimental neuroepidemiology, which is research based on clinical trials of effectiveness or efficacy of various interventions in neurological disorders. Neuroepidemiological researches have been conducted since 1960’s, with the development of epidemiological methodology and advance of the clinical neurology. Most improvement of neuroepidemiology was in western countries, largely in US and European countries. This study field has been developed quite late in resourcelimited areas, where 60% of world’s populations are living in. Disease burden of neurological disorders, such as stroke, epilepsy, migraine, neurodegenerated diseases (AD, PD), multiple sclerosis (MS), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), are extremely heavy in low and middle income countries (LAMICs), especially with the increasing aging population in these regions. Because of their progressive and disabling nature, these neurological disorders have major adverse personal, social, and economic consequences. Prevention and early detection are critical, because there are no cures and the clinical diagnosis typically occurs after substantial and often irreversible neuronal loss.

Book excerpt: In the current era of evidence-based medicine, clinical epidemiology is increasingly being recognized as an important tool in the critical appraisal of available evidence and the design of new studies. This book is a comprehensive resource that introduces the reader to the basics of clinical epidemiology. It explores the principles and methods that can be used to obtain quantitative evidence on the effects on interventions and on the diagnosis, etiology, and prognosis of disease.
