Book Synopsis Smell and Taste Disorders by : Christopher H. Hawkes
Download or read book Smell and Taste Disorders written by Christopher H. Hawkes and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-01-25 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Loss of the sense of smell or taste is often a sign of neurological disease. Evaluating chemosensation (the senses of smell and taste) during neurological examination can help early detection of neurodegenerative conditions such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease. The importance of such testing is now receiving increasingly high profile in the medical curriculum. In this book, olfactory conditions are completely updated and the sense of taste is now included in similar detail. It is written by experts in the field, covering anatomy and physiology of human olfaction and taste, how they can be measured and their relevance to a wide range of major disorders such as diabetes, kidney disease, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. The 'Olfactory Vector Hypothesis' that suggests a neuropathogen may enter the nose en route to the brain is evaluated in detail. This introduction to smell and taste disorders is an essential guide for neurologists, neurosurgeons, otolaryngologists, medical trainees, and chemosensory scientists.
Book Synopsis Smell and Taste by : Richard L. Doty
Download or read book Smell and Taste written by Richard L. Doty and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2019-11-11 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Smell and Taste, Volume 164 focuses on recent clinical research regarding two of our primary chemical senses, smell and taste. This volume is the most comprehensive neurology book on disorders of smell and taste function. Its major sections include epidemiology, anatomy and physiology, and clinical assessment, including neuroimaging, clinical conditions affecting smell and taste function (e.g., autoimmune disorders, head trauma, diseases of the nose and mouth, etc.). The widespread use of olfactory testing in clinical trials searching for biomarkers of neurodegenerative diseases is reviewed, along with evidence that smell dysfunction can be an early marker in neurodegenerative diseases and autoimmune disorders. - Covers all aspects of disorders of taste and smell for beginning students of various disciplines (neurology, psychiatry, neuropsychology, otolaryngology) - Teaches that smell and taste testing can be useful in differential diagnosis and can assess brain regions not normally assessed by traditional neurological or neuropsychological tests - Addresses, in detail, recent evidence that smell loss is a better predictor of future mortality than dementia and even heart disease
Book Synopsis Smell and Taste Complaints by : Christopher H. Hawkes
Download or read book Smell and Taste Complaints written by Christopher H. Hawkes and published by Butterworth-Heinemann. This book was released on 2002 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This practical, brief guide to diagnosing and treating causes of disorders of smell and taste is the only accessible handbook available for non-experts. Signs of problems with these two senses may be ignored by the patient or downplayed by the physician, but the disruption of the senses may be a first sign of serious illness. The wide range of conditions responsible for disorders of smell and taste make it difficult to determine the single underlying cause and to decide upon the best possible plan of treatment. Disorders of Smell and Taste will help physicians manage some of these patients thereby minimizing references to specialists. * The only accessible handbook available for the non-expert * Pocket-sized guide provides easy access for clinicians * Practical and brief, this handbooks aids physicians in the diagnosis and treatment of sense disorders.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this compendium of current studies on olfaction and taste - the most comprehensive yet to appear in this series - the chemical senses are elucidated from points of view ranging from anatomy, electrophysiology, molecular biology (especially chemoreceptor gene cloning), biochemistry, and psychophysics to the latest clinical and technological applications of chemosensory research. Specific topics include the structure and function of the tastebud and olfactory epithelium; the genetics and mechanisms of olfactory and taste transduction; the chemistry and function of flavor compounds; the psychophysics of taste and olfaction in daily human life; the brain mechanisms of coding, learning, and memory in olfaction and taste; the clinical assessment of taste and olfaction with special reference to aging and disorders; noninvasive measurements of human olfactory and taste responses for therapeutic purposes; artifical sensing devices; chemoreception in aquatic organisms and other species; and chemosensory transduction in insects. With its multidisciplinary approach, this volume will be an invaluable source of information not only for researchers, clinicians, and students but also for technologists in fields such as artificial sensing, perfumery, brewery, food chemistry, aquafarming, and agriculture.

Download or read book Taste and Smell written by Thomas Hummel and published by Karger Medical and Scientific Publishers. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chemosensory dysfunction is a quite frequently occurring problem which significantly affects the patient's quality of life. It can result from infectious agents, environmental factors, toxins, traumatic brain injuries, as well as neurodegenerative diseases. This publication provides up-to-date articles on the chemical senses including the olfactory, trigeminal and gustatory systems. The vomeronasal system and its potential significance in humans is also discussed. Based on recent functional imaging data, the book provides an overview on how the 'lower senses' function, how they work together, for example to produce flavor, how they can be damaged and repaired, and how the function of human chemical senses can be assessed. The publication focuses on chemosensory dysfunction and pays particular attention to taste and its disorders. Renowned experts in their fields of research have contributed their findings to this topical update on chemosensory disorders and made this volume indispensable reading for otorhinolaryngologists and neurologists.
Book Synopsis The Neuropsychology of Smell and Taste by : G. Neil Martin
Download or read book The Neuropsychology of Smell and Taste written by G. Neil Martin and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2013-06-19 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Smell and taste are our most misunderstood senses. Given a choice between losing our sense of smell and taste, or our senses of sight and hearing, most people nominate the former, rather than the latter. Yet our sense of smell and taste has the power to stir up memories, alter our mood and even influence our behaviour. In The Neuropsychology of Smell and Taste, Neil Martin provides a comprehensive, critical analysis of the role of the brain in gustation and olfaction. In his accessible and characteristic style he shows why our sense of smell and taste do not simply perform basic and intermittent functions, but lie at the very centre of our perception of the world around us. Through an exploration of the physiology, anatomy and neuropsychology of the senses; the neurophysiological causes of smell and taste disorders, and their function in physical and mental illness, Neil Martin provides an accessible and up-to-date overview of the processes of gustation and olfaction. The Neuropsychology of Smell and Taste provides a state-of-the-art overview of current research in olfactory and gustatory perception. With sections describing the effect of odour and taste on our behaviour, and evaluating the contribution current neuroimaging technology has made to our understanding of the senses, the book will be of interest to researchers and students of neuropsychology and neuroscience, and anybody with an interest in olfaction and gustation.
