These diseases and conditions affect the nervous system directly (sometimes with lethal consequences) and/or are associated with severe neurological sequels such as epilepsy, cognitive deficits, and sleep disruption. Several diseases also have the effect of promoting poverty by leaving sufferers unable to lead economically productive lives due to cognitive and behavioral disturbances or severe stigmatization. The pathogenesis of neural dysfunction in the diseases addressed in this book and their sequels remains unclear. Neuroscience of Neglected Diseases and Conditions makes available much needed information about how these diseases affect the human nervous system as well as to promote interest in further research. Further research into neglected diseases and conditions will uncover information that sheds light on more general topics of interest to the neuroscience research community. 606 $aNeurosciences 606 $aVirology 606 $aPublic health 606 $aNeurology  606 $aNeurosciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B18006 606 $aVirology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B22003 606 $aPublic Health$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H27002 606 $aNeurology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H36001 615 0$aNeurosciences. 615 0$aVirology. 615 0$aPublic health. 615 0$aNeurology . 615 14$aNeurosciences. 615 24$aVirology. 615 24$aPublic Health. 615 24$aNeurology. 676 $a610 676 $a612.8 676 $a613 676 $a614 702 $aBentivoglio$b Marina$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aCavalheiro$b Esper A$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aKristensson$b Krister$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aPatel$b Nilesh B$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298315803321 996 $aNeglected Tropical Diseases and Conditions of the Nervous System$92505640 997 $aUNINA
