Disaster neurology: A new practice opportunity and challenge for the neurologist

Dengue: a new challenge for neurology

Dengue infection is a leading cause of illness and death in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. Forty percent of the world's population currently lives in these areas. The clinical picture resulting from dengue infection can range from relatively minor to catastrophic hemorrhagic fever. Recently, reports have increased of neurological manifestations. Neuropathogenesis seems to be rel...

The new challenge for Functional Neurology.

Neuroimaging practice issues for the neurologist.

Neuroimaging is an integral and indispensable part of every neurologist's practice. As neuroimaging now becomes a formal neurological subspecialty, through the United Council of Neurologic Subspecialties, the entire concept of "neurologist as neuroimager" is undergoing a detailed examination and emphasis at all levels of neurological training and endeavor. This article summarizes historical asp...

Transcriptome study for early hematopoiesis--achievement, challenge and new opportunity.

Hematopoietic stem progenitor cells are the source for the entire hematopoietic system. Studying gene expression in hematopoietic stem progenitor cells will provide information to understand the genetic programs controlling early hematopoiesis, and to identify the gene targets to interfere hematopoietic disorders. Extensive efforts using cell biology, molecular biology, and genomics approaches ...
