In Evidence-based Neurology: Management of Neurological
Disorders a carefully selected group of clinically
experienced collaborators use the best available evidence to answer
more than 100 clinical questions about the treatment and management
of neurological disorders.
Divided into three sections and 24 chapters, this book
* * fills the gap between guidelines and primary studies as well as
between primary and secondary scientific medical literature
* summarizes the most recent and important findings on treatments
for neurological patients
* measures the benefit and, when applicable, the risk of harm
inherent in specific neurological interventions.
This unique, evidence-based text, edited by members of the
Cochrane Neurological Network will be an essential resource for all
general neurologists, from the novice to the most experienced, in
their everyday clinical practice.
