This fine text provides a comprehensive overview of methods for epidemiologic and clinical research on neurological disorders. The book focuses on classic principles of study design in epidemiologic research, strategies for avoiding study biases, methods for conducting clinical trials and prognostic studies, and principles of evidence-based medicine in neurology. The text gives neurologists, epidemiologists, and their students the foundation for conducting rigorous epidemiologic and clinical research on neurologic disorders.
The authors emphasize a methodological approach in the analysis of the health impact, circumstances, and costs of injuries. They detail the role of health services in injury prevention and describe surveillance methods and effective preventive measures that can be implemented relatively easily, even in countries with limited resources.
