Languages : en
Pages : 596
Book Description
1h The 5 International Conference on the Progress in Alzheimer's Disease and Parkinson's 51 1 Disease took place from March 31 to April 5 \ 2001 in Kroto, Japan. This international 1 conference was organized as a joint Congress with the 9 International Catecholamine Symposium. A total of 1258 clinicians and researchers participated in this joint congress 1h from 38 countries in the world. This book represents the proceedings of the 5 Conference on Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. The International Conference on the Progress in Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease was first launched by Professor Abraham Fisher of Israel and Professor Israel Hanin of USA. The first conference was held in Eilat, Israel in 1985. The second conference was organized in Kyoto, Japan in 1989; the third one in Chicago, USA, in 1993, and the fourth one in Eilat, Israel in 1997. The International Catecholamine Symposium (ICS) is an international meeting devoted to the development of basic as well as clinical research on catecholamines. The first Catecholamine Symposium was held in Bethesda, USA in 1958. Since then this symposium has occurred every 5 years. Professor Toshiharu Nagatsu was appointed as 1h the president of the 9 International Catecholamine Symposium, which was to be held in 200 I also in Japan. Therefore, we decided to organize a joint congress of the two meetings, because there is much overlap in research between Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and catecholamines. We thank Professor Nagatsu very much for agreeing to organizing this joint congress.

Food and Parkinsons Disease
Author: M. Mohamed Essa
Publisher: Nova Science Publishers
ISBN: 9781634857369
Category : Parkinson's disease
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
This book focuses on the alternative therapeutic approach for managing Parkinsons disease. This manuscript analyses the curative properties of natural ingredients and bioactive compounds known as nutraceuticals from natural foods, herbs, spices and plant extracts. Scientific revelations supported by conducted research concerning these remedies are presented. For example, consuming foods from natural sources that are rich in amino acids, antioxidants, vitamins and alkaloids may reduce the chances of onset of Parkinsons disease, and suggests that nutrition and diet have an impact on disease management. In addition, epigenetic modifications in conjunction with Parkinsons disease are also discussed in this book.

Non-Motor Symptoms of Parkinson's Disease
Author: K. Ray Chaudhuri
Publisher: Oxford University Press, USA
ISBN: 0199684243
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 517
Book Description
Patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) are known to suffer from motor symptoms of the disease, but they also experience non-motor symptoms (NMS) that are often present before diagnosis or that inevitably emerge with disease progression. The motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease have been extensively researched, and effective clinical tools for their assessment and treatment have been developed and are readily available. In contrast, researchers have only recently begun to focus on the NMS of Parkinson's Disease, which are poorly recognized and inadequately treated by clinicians. The NMS of PD have a significant impact on patient quality of life and mortality and include neuropsychiatric, sleep-related, autonomic, gastrointestinal, and sensory symptoms. While some NMS can be improved with currently available treatments, others may be more refractory and will require research into novel (non-dopaminergic) drug therapies for the future. Edited by members of the UK Parkinson's Disease Non-Motor Group (PD-NMG) and with contributions from international experts, this new edition summarizes the current understanding of NMS symptoms in Parkinson's disease and points the way towards future research.

With a broader understanding of the disease and the available options, patients are able to make more informed choices, and doctors are able to provide more tailored care.

Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 100
Book Description
• Do only old people get Parkinson’s? • Are tremors the leading symptoms of Parkinson’s? • Does Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) help? The author answers these questions and many more through his personal stories and experiences. A Parkinson’s patient for the last six years, he takes us through his emotional and physical journey about living with Parkinson’s. The book serves as an excellent handbook for newly diagnosed and existing patients, care partners and family members. Written from a patient’s point of view, the book is a quick read for all who want to familiarize themselves with the disease. This also gives the practicing doctors and health workers an insight into the thoughts, emotions and expectations of Parkinson’s patients. Some of the questions such as how does one emotionally cope with the diagnosis of a critical illness or how does one communicate the diagnosis to one’s near and dear ones are faced by not only Parkinson’s but all the patients diagnosed with a critical illness. This perhaps is the first book written by a Parkinson’s patient in India. The author believes that the socio-cultural context makes a significant difference in the way one responds to an illness. A book that is both absorbing and informative…
