acute vision rehabilitative care following brain injury, this multidisciplinary book bridges the gap between theory and practice and presents clinical information and scientific literature supporting the diagnostic and therapeutic strategies applied. It covers all areas of vision care including the structure and function of the eye, organization of visual perception in the brain, and rehabilitation concepts applied to the visual system. It offers cutting-edge research, prescribing lenses and prisms, and therapy techniques that will enable even the experienced clinician to provide enhanced care to the brain injury patient--Provided by publisher. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
This 2016 Article IV Consultation highlights Bolivia’s substantial economic and social progress, boosted by the commodity boom. Growth has been strong, averaging about 5 percent since 2006, and poverty has fallen by a third. During this time, the authorities built up sizable buffers and largely dedollarized the financial system. Real GDP growth is projected at 3.7 percent in 2016, which is still relatively strong by regional standards. In the medium term, growth is expected to converge toward 3.5 percent, consistent with the new commodity price normal, amid persistent twin deficits. |

Sommario/riassunto |

Recent biochemical studies indicate that calorie restriction (CR) is a widely accepted method for anti-aging intervention. CR and intermittent fasting (IF), which involves reduced calories but proper nutritional intake during specific periods, are interventions that can consistently promote health benefits, delay biological aging, and extend both average and maximal lifespan. Furthermore, CR can modulate age-related diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, atherosclerosis, diabetes, obesity, cancer, and others. Advances in omics technologies have provided a technical breakthrough that enabled the investigation of DNA, RNA, proteins, and other cellular molecules and their comprehensive interactions in a biological context. Nowadays, it is possible to analyze and integrate biological processes that occur in aging systems at the molecular level using state-of-the-art techniques such as next-generation sequencing (NGS), proteomics, lipidomics, metabolomics, and epigenomics. Omics technology and systems gerontology provide predictive information on CR effects, molecular mechanisms, and pathways underlying the anti-aging actions of CR and IF. This Special Issue, "The effects of calorie restriction and intermittent fasting on health and disease", focuses on the effects of calorie restriction and intermittent fasting on age-related |
