Creutzfeldt Jackob

Unlike bacteria and viruses, which are based on DNA and RNA, prions are unique as disease-causing agents since they are misfolded proteins. Prion diseases are called "protein structural conformational” diseases. This monograph is the book on molecular dynamics (MD) simulations nearly for all the known normal prion protein (PrPC) PDB entries in the Protein Data Bank (PDB) and associations. Pig is a species that is largely resistant to prions, and chicken, turtles, frogs are species resisting prion infection too; firstly, this book will address all PrP strong immunity species (such as rabbits, dogs, horses, water buffaloes, pigs, chicken, turtles, frogs), compared with high susceptibility species. Other PrP models and doppel models are also MD studied in this book.

Le thriller qui avait tout prédit ressort. Alors que l'épidémie de la maladie de Creutzfeldt-Jakob menace de décimer les populations européennes, la formule du seul médicament est dérobée dans un laboratoire britannique et ses inventeurs assassinés. Un groupe parallèle d'enquêteurs dirigé par le professeur Francis Foster, ancien membre des services secrets anglais et psychiatre de génie, ouvre l'enquête. Mais l'ennemi est-il vraiment celui qu'ils croisent ? De Londres à Paris, du Caire à Zurich, la poursuite commence…

From the bestselling author of The Science of Why series, “a ‘whodunit’ about one of the most fascinating and improbable tales of medical discovery” (Jonathan A. Edlow, MD, author of The Deadly Dinner Party: And Other Medical Detective Stories).

This comprehensive guide thoroughly covers all aspects of neuropalliative care, from symptom-specific considerations, to improving communication between clinicians, patients and families. Neuropalliative Care: A Guide to Improving the Lives of Patients and Families Affected by Neurologic Disease addresses clinical considerations for diseases such as dementia, multiple sclerosis, and severe acute brain injury, as well discussing the other challenges facing palliative care patients that are not currently sufficiently met under current models of care.
