The Neurological Treatment for Nearsightedness and Related Vision Problems A Guide to Vision Improvement Based on 30 Years of Research

The Neurological Treatment for Nearsightedness and Related Vision Problems A Guide to Vision Improvement Based on 30 Years of Research

This volume introduces and explains an eye-opening treatment for correcting nearsightedness and related vision problems naturally and neurologically. The author presents his methodology on neurologically correcting primary refractive errors in the mild and moderate myopic range. Ortho C (or orthoculogy which is Latin for correcting the whole eye) is a natural treatment requiring no alteration to the cornea. Key features of the book:• Introduces a neurological and natural treatment for the correction of nearsightedness• Presents many case studies showing the effectiveness of this treatment based on the author’s 30+ years of research• Provides step-by-step instructions for designing lenses to suit the need determining the sequence of wear and conducting resistance tests• Grants readers the right to apply Ortho C to treat any patients with mild and moderate myopia anisometropia or compound astigmatism. | The Neurological Treatment for Nearsightedness and Related Vision Problems A Guide to Vision Improvement Based on 30 Years of Research

Clinical Atlas of Polysomnography

Clinical Atlas of Polysomnography

Written for sleep technologists Clinical Atlas of Polysomnography provides basic information regarding normal sleep sleep disorders and electrophysiology that is outside of the scope of the AASM manual (AASM Manual for the Scoring of Sleep and Associated Events). It aims to act as a guide through the fundamental aspects of for example types of overnight sleep study establishing a sleep laboratory preparing the patient for a sleep evaluation study placement of electrodes and leads and the scientific aspects of such placement i. e. why they are placed at that particular position. This information will be very useful in those parts of the globe where formal training in sleep technology is not yet available. Many further chapters focus on depicting real-time illustrations of sleep data as captured in the sleep laboratory and the scoring of recording data. Information regarding common montages artifacts and troubleshooting in the sleep laboratory will facilitate the reader’s journey as a trainee sleep technologist. While scoring sleep recordings the When you score the data histogram can provide a great deal of useful information and this has been explained in detail in this book. Most importantly it is prudent to be able to write reports that are both informative and easy to understand by physicians who do not have advanced knowledge of sleep medicine. A chapter has been dedicated to explaining this in detail. Lastly the authors have provided ready-made forms questionnaires and documents that can either be used as they are or with some modifications. This up-to-date and comprehensive volume will be an invaluable guide for technicians and physicians who wish to practice sleep medicine and will be useful for sleep technology and physician training programs. The volume is intended to complement not be a substitute for the AASM scoring manual as many areas that are covered in the manual are not covered here.

Urban Ecology Strategies for Green Infrastructure and Land Use

Urban Ecology Strategies for Green Infrastructure and Land Use

This title includes a number of Open Access chapters. With increasing global urbanization the environments and ecologies of cities are often perceived to suffer. While pollution and destruction of green space and species may occur cities also remain part of natural systems. Cities provide natural processes necessary for survival for humans and other living organisms in urban areas. Urban ecology elucidates some of these processes and sheds light on their importance to healthy fulfilling urban livelihoods. Urban Ecology: Strategies for Green Infrastructure and Land Use provides background on issues relating to urban ecology and urban natural processes. The first section covers the types values and recognition of ecosystem services provided by natural processes in urban areas. The second section details the importance and potential of green spaces in urban areas. The third section focuses on biodiversity traits of cities and the ways in which urbanization affects biodiversity indicators. Finally the fourth section covers some of the tools and approaches available for urban planners and designers concerned with improving or maintaining urban environments and the services they provide. This easily accessible reference volume offers a comprehensive guide to this rapidly growing field. Case studies and up-to-date research provide urban planners with new options for creating cities that will meet the demands of the twenty-first century.
