Book excerpt: Risk Factors for Cerebrovascular Disease and Stroke address the relationship of a wide variety of vascular risk factors in the spectrum of cerebrovascular diseases. An international group of professionals the forefront of research and education, provide their expertise about environmental and genetic determinants for cerebrovascular disease and stroke. The authors aim to provide information on developments of genetic, environmental and lifestyle-related risk factors of various subtypes of stroke, and MRI-markers of cerebrovascular disease. One in two men, and one in three women after the age of 40, will develop a stroke in their lifetime. The burden of cerebrovascular disease extends far beyond that of acute clinical events such as stroke, with "covert" vascular injury on brain MRI being highly prevalent in older community-dwelling persons. Therefore, improving our understanding of the risk factors for stroke and cerebrovascular disease is of paramount importance for improving prevention strategies. Secular trends in stroke epidemiology, risk factors, and intermediate markers (including carotid ultrasound, brain MRI and circulating biomarkers) are presented. Cutting edge information on genetic, environmental and lifestyle-related risk factors of various subtypes of stroke and MRI-markers of cerebrovascular diseases are displayed. This important book is an essential reference to physicians interested in more effective primary prevention of stroke.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This concise and informative textbook is aimed at trainee doctors beginning work on a stroke unit or residents embarking on their postdoctoral training in stroke care. It has a practical approach covering all important issues of prevention, diagnosis and treatment of cerebrovascular diseases. Chapters on the basics of neuropathology and pathophysiology are followed by reviews of clinical issues, including neuroimaging, clinical assessment, diagnosis and treatment, stroke in the young, and stroke-related dementia. Topics of rising importance are covered in chapters on stroke unit management, monitoring and management of complications including infections, recommendations for thrombolysis, interventions and neurosurgical procedures, and clear and balanced recommendations for secondary prevention. Finally, neuropsychological syndromes are explained and an up-to-date view on neurorehabilitation is presented. The authors are all experts in their field and many of them teach on the European Master's Program on Stroke Medicine, which is supported and endorsed by the European Stroke Organization.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Patients suffering from cerebrovascular disease pose many clinical challenges and even experienced clinicians can arrive at the point where diagnostic, work-up, treatment, or prognostic thinking falters. Authored by a vascular neurologist whose work spans the entire spectrum of this group of brain dysfunctions, Cerebrovascular Disease helps clinicians evaluate and manage patients suffering from stroke, embolism, thrombosis, hemorrhage, and other critical presentations. In a medical field where it's often difficult to distill the vast array of research and apply it in any meaningful clinical way, this next volume in the "What Do I Do Now?" series focuses on walking the clinician through evidence-based decision-making. Each clinical scenario featured in Cerebrovascular Disease describes in careful detail the presentation, diagnostic studies, treatment options, and rationale for handling these tricky cases.
