Об электронной книге

"Unveiling Absence Seizures: From Pathophysiology to Personalized Care" delves into the comprehensive realm of absence seizures, offering an intricate exploration from their underlying neurobiological mechanisms to cutting-edge therapeutic frontiers. This treatise, a compendium of in-depth analysis and multidimensional insights, presents a holistic understanding of absence seizures, addressing their historical context, epidemiology, and diverse etiologies.


Beginning with a historical retrospective, the treatise traces the evolution of knowledge surrounding absence seizures, charting milestones in understanding their manifestations and impact. It unravels the intricate epidemiological patterns, shedding light on prevalence rates and demographic variations, establishing a foundation for a deeper understanding.


The core of the treatise illuminates the pathophysiological intricacies, dissecting neuronal networks, synaptic transmissions, genetic underpinnings, and neurotransmitter imbalances. Each chapter intricately explores brain structures, highlighting the roles of the thalamus, cortical networks, and frontal lobe implications, painting a vivid picture of the complex interplay between anatomy and seizures.


Furthermore, it delves into genetic and molecular mechanisms, elucidating gene mutations, protein expressions, and the synaptic plasticity underlying these seizures. Explorations into neurotransmitter systems, including GABAergic, glutamatergic, dopamine, and serotonin pathways, unveil the delicate balance of excitation and inhibition pivotal in seizure genesis.


The treatise spans into clinical facets, meticulously detailing seizure types, electroclinical features, diagnostic criteria, and differential diagnoses. It navigates through neuroimaging techniques, offering insights into MRI findings and PET/SPECT scans for accurate diagnosis.


Beyond diagnostics, it encapsulates therapeutic landscapes, featuring pharmacological interventions, novel targets, non-pharmacological management, surgical considerations, and holistic support strategies. Integrating psychological, educational, and complementary therapies, it paves the way for a comprehensive care continuum.


"Unveiling Absence Seizures" emerges as an indispensable compendium, marrying scientific rigor with clinical relevance, offering a panoramic view that informs clinicians, researchers, and caregivers, ultimately transforming the paradigm of care for individuals grappling with absence seizures.
