Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation for Neurological Diseases (HSCT), Volume 201 provides the latest information on what has been evaluated as a possible therapeutic tool in severe autoimmune diseases for the last 20 years. In the neurological field, HSCT has been widely investigated for the treatment of multiple sclerosis and evidence is accumulating about its potential use in neuromyelitis optica, stiff person syndrome, myasthenia gravis, and many immune neuropathies. Besides their strong clinical relevance, studies on HSCT in neurological diseases have contributed to new insights on the pathological mechanisms underlying CNS autoimmunity, hence this volume summarizes that research.

Diving into the future of neurodegenerative disorders, A Review on Diverse Neurological Disorders: Pathophysiology, Molecular Mechanisms, and Therapeutics presents an unprecedented compilation of knowledge. It embarks on a journey from the roots of mental disorders, through bacterial and fungal invasions, viral attacks, and genetic predispositions, offering a comprehensive understanding of the neurological landscape. Each chapter uncovers the mysteries behind these debilitating conditions, from the pathogenesis of central nervous system tuberculosis to the role of endocannabinoids in rabies infection. This book’s exploration extends to neuroinflammation, axonal pathology, and the intricate interplay of diet, gut microbiomes, and cognitive decline. It leaves no stone unturned in unravelling the complexities of neurodegeneration, offering a glimmer of hope through probiotics and natural bioactive compounds in preventing diseases like Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). With meticulous discussions on vitamins, micronutrients, antioxidants, and nutraceuticals, this book provides a roadmap for neuroprotection. ‘Neurological Disorders and Neurodegeneration’ is a groundbreaking resource that paves the way for future treatments and innovations, making it an essential read for professionals and enthusiasts alike.

The Electrical Fields of Consciousness: Brain Waves and Dreaming examines neuro-electrophysiology from its origins in the electrical fields of primitive organisms to its roles in the electrophysiologically defined states of human consciousness. This volume presents and cogently organizes the wide spectrum of information available as to how and why bioelectrical fields are used to define and function in supporting both life and consciousness. Integrating electrophysiology in a comprehensible manner into neuroanatomical, electromagnetic, and global platform theories of neuroconsciousness, this book brings together the wide spectrum of available data-based evidence regarding the physiology and functions of bioelectric fields and their relationship to consciousness.Chapters examine the origin and potential function of bioelectrical fields and EEG associations with conscious states, as well as the relationship between electrical fields and consciousness. Incorporating the basic science, clinical correlates, and functional potential of CNS bioelectrical fields, this book is a must-read for all working in the field of CNS electrophysiology or neuroconsciousness.

Computational and Network Modeling of Neuroimaging Data provides an authoritative and comprehensive overview of the many diverse modeling approaches that have been fruitfully applied to neuroimaging data. As neuroimaging is witnessing a massive increase in the quality and quantity of data being acquired, this book gives an accessible foundation to the field of computational neuroimaging, suitable for graduate students, academic researchers, and industry practitioners who are interested in adopting or applying model-based approaches in neuroimaging.It is widely recognized that effective interpretation and extraction of information from complex data requires quantitative modeling. However, modeling the brain comes in many diverse forms, with different research communities tackling different brain systems, different spatial and temporal scales, and different aspects of brain structure and function. This book takes a critical step towards synthesizing and integrating across different modeling approaches.
