Organisk psykiatri. Teoretiska och kliniska aspekter : Organic Psychiatry. Theoretical and clinical aspects.
- 1990
-
Bok (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- In this book a theory about the nature of organic mental disorders (in the narrow sense) and a new diagnostic system for them are presented. The diagnostic concepts used are mainly rooted in the classical Central European psychiatric tradition but have been modified in the light of recently published research and the authors' own clinical experience from different parts of organic psychiatry.

Apomorphine in Parkinson’s disease : 4th edition
- 2020. - 4
-
Bok (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Apomorphine is one of the oldest and, at the same time, most potent drugs for the treatment of Parkinson s disease. Its use was for decades inhibited by the occurrence of dopaminergic side effects and the lack of practical equipment for its delivery. But we learned how to reduce the side effects of apomorphine. And the subsequent development of suitable injection pens and portable pumps has made apomorphine a practically useful therapeutic option.With the fourth edition of this book, the authors give a compact and comprehensible overview of apomorphine in Parkinson s disease and practical guidelines for its use associated with the hope that this fascinating drug and excellent therapy can be made available to more Parkinson patients.

Neurotechnology and Direct Brain Communication : New insights and responsibilities concerning speechless but communicative subjects
- 2016
-
Bok (refereegranskat)abstract
- Neurotechnology and Direct Brain Communication focuses on recent neuroscientific investigations of infant brains and of patients with disorders of consciousness (DOC), both of which are at the forefront of contemporary neuroscience. The prospective use of neurotechnology to access mental states in these subjects, including neuroimag- ing, brain simulation, and brain computer interfaces, offers new opportunities for clinicians and researchers, but has also received specific attention from philosophi- cal, scientific, ethical, and legal points of view. This book offers the first systematic assessment of these issues, investigating the tools neurotechnology offers to care for verbally non-communicative subjects and suggesting a multidisciplinary approach to the ethical and legal implications of ordinary and experimental practices.The book is divided into three parts: the first and second focus on the scientific and clinical implications of neurological tools for DOC patient and infant care. With refer- ence to these developments, the third and final part presents the case for re-evaluating classical ethical and legal concepts, such as authority, informed consent, and privacy.Neurotechnology and Direct Brain Communication will appeal to researchers and postgraduate students in the fields of cognitive science, medical ethics, medical technology, and the philosophy of the mind. With implications for patient care, it will also be a useful resource for clinicians, medical centres, and health practitioners.

Filosofía de las Neurociencias. : Cerebro, mente, persona
- 2018
-
Bok (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Michele Farisco presenta los desafíos que las neurociencias plantean al saber filosófico, sobre todo en el dominio ético-antropológico. El neurocientífico no permanece circunscripto a un ámbito disciplinar sino que intenta acercarse e indagar, con métodos y finalidades relativamente diversas, el sistema nervioso del hombre, llegando, en algunas casos, a elaborar una visión absolutamente biologicista de la naturaleza humana. Esta visión se ha visto potenciada por la posibilidad de visualizar el funcionamiento del cerebro gracias a las técnicas del neuroimaging. Farisco, luego de señalar las limitaciones instrumentales y conceptuales de las técnicas del neuroimaging, advierte al lector acerca de dos posibles errores: la denominada “falacia mereológica”, que consiste en atribuir al cerebro todas las actividades mentales, considerando la parte como un todo, y el error de confundir antecedentes y consecuentes, fundamentando por qué el hombre no es un sí neuroquímico (brainhood) cuyo ser se identifica con el cerebro. Farisco, con total justeza, señala que en esta posición antropológica reductiva, la ideología prevalece sobre la ciencia por cuanto formula afirmaciones que escapan totalmente al dominio de las neurociencias en particular, y de la ciencia en general.

“More Probable than Unlikely” - : A Tale of the Blood-Brain Barrier and Mobile Communication. Dedicated to Leif G, Salford on his 80th birth day 2021-12-07.
- 2021
-
Bok (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Our team of the clinical researchers in Lund, Sweden, found that electromagnetic radiation, such as those used in mobile communications, even at shallow power values, cause users’ blood albumin to leak through the blood-brain barrier “BBB” into the brain tissue. The BBB is supposed to protect the brain against unwanted and toxic molecules potentially present in the blood, to transfer to the brain tissue. However, our team in Lund found that after exposure of rats to the radiation from mobile telephones, albumin in the blood leak into the brain and accumulates in neurons and glial cells.This matter would be of interest not only for researchers but also for radiation safety authorities and organizations worldwide as well as the general public. The studies performed at the Lund University by: Neurosurgeons: Leif Salford MD, PhD professor em., Henrietta Nittby MD, PhD,Neuropathologist: Arne Brun MD, PhD professor emeritus, Medical Physicist: Bertil RR Persson PhD MDhc prof. em., Jacob Eberhardt PhD, Electric engineer: Lars Malmgren Techn.
