| dr toshikatsu yamamoto: Acupuncture Marcelo Saad, 2011-09-06 Acupuncture is growing in popularity world-wide. Acupuncture and related techniques are useful tools for treating a spectrum of diseases. However, there are still many areas of controversy connected to it due to the fact that mechanisms of action of acupuncture are not entirely clear. Another debilitating element is the absence of a convincing model of sham acupuncture for a control group in clinical trials.Therefore, there are still inappropriate prejudice and unfamiliarity regarding acupuncture. I hope this book can contribute to guide the advance of this ancient medical art. The reader will here find texts wrote by authors from different parts of the world. The chapters cover strategic areas to collaborate with the consolidation of the knowledge in acupuncture. The main objective is to share elements to make acupuncture more and better offered at health systems worldwide. |

| dr toshikatsu yamamoto: Freshwater Fungi E. B. Gareth Jones, Kevin D Hyde, Ka-Lai Pang, 2014-08-27 The available literature on freshwater fungi is limited. Over the subsequent years a considerable volume of scientific papers have appeared scattered throughout numerous journals. There is therefore no recent synthesis of the subject and this is the objective of the proposed book. Freshwater habitats are rich in fungi with some 3,000 described species, most of papers focussing on their identification, substrata they grow on and world distribution. However, these fungi play an important role in the freshwater ecosystem, and are primarily involved in the breakdown of leaf litter contributing food for detritus feeders. Our book will bring together a wide range of acclaimed mycologists to review recent developments on the biology and ecology of freshwater fungi, particularly their molecular phylogeny, biodiversity, causative diseases of freshwater amphibians, fishes and invertebrate animals, decomposition of leaf litter, stream pollution and their potential role in bioremediation. |

| dr toshikatsu yamamoto: Human Trophoblast Neoplasms Ronald A. Pattillo, 2012-11-25 This book addresses neoplasms of the human trophoblast. The scant literature available on the epidemiology of trophoblast neoplasms suggests that they are as much as ten times more common in Africa, Asia, India, and much of the developing world than in Western countries. The stimulus for the book evolved out of a common interest to combine Western technology with the clinical experience in the developing world in a common pursuit of the study and eradication of trophoblast neoplasia. There is substantial evidence to contend that gene derepression as seen in trophoblastic disease may be a universal prerequisite to neoplastic transformation in general. The recent discovery that the tumor markers, human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) or its subunits, are identifiable in over 90 percent of all extracted neoplasms suggests a critical role for this common denominator of gene derepression in neoplasia. This gene derepression concept in reproductive biology and neoplasia spans many of the basic parameters of human cell replication as related to endocrinology, immunology, biochemistry, electrophysiol ogy, genetics, and pharmacology. The International Society for the Study of Trophoblastic Disease focuses on the global aspects of trophoblast neoplasms. These global aspects include epidemiology and etiology of the disease, regional variations in treatment of trophoblastic neoplasms, and potential ways to adapt and apply Western technology to effective use in developing countries. It was this perspective that formed the basis for the First World Congress on Trophoblast Neoplasms, which convened in Nairobi in October, 1982. |
| dr toshikatsu yamamoto: The Clinical Practice of Complementary, Alternative, and Western Medicine (2001) W. John Diamond, 2017-11-22 Western Medicine, Alternative Medicine, Complementary Medicine, Holistic Medicine, and Natural Medicine. There is really only one medicine that heals and puts the whole patient, not the disease, at the center of care: Integrated Medicine. This practice integrates all modalities of healing to produce not merely a medical cure, but a deeper healing of the patient on his or her own terms. The Clinical Practice of Complementary, Alternative, and Western Medicine is a scientifically based text that informs and leads the practitioner easily through the maze of alternative therapies. Unlike other books that address the different alternative modalities, this text integrates homeopathy, acupuncture, chinese herbology, western herbology, and clinical nutrition, then combines them with traditional medicine. The author explains the new paradigm of patient-centered and Integrated Medicine and includes an extensive section on the physical underpinnings of this new paradigm, a paradigm that employs thermodynamics, non linear dynamics, chaos theory, and fractal geometry in an easy to understand discourse. The book incorporates the author's fundamental training in the alternative modalities and his ten years of clinical practice, a practice in which multiple integrated modalities of healing were utilized in the healing of over 10,000 patients. The Clinical Practice of Complementary, Alternative, and Western Medicine is a tremendously valuable reference for practitioners who want to learn about and practice alternative therapies and those who want to be more informed about what their patients may be doing and taking, and the influences those self-administered therapies may be having on their care. |

| dr toshikatsu yamamoto: Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention - MICCAI 2002 Takeyoshi Dohi, Ron Kikins, 2003-06-30 The fifth international Conference in Medical Image Computing and Computer Assisted Intervention (MICCAI 2002) was held in Tokyo from September 25th to 28th, 2002. This was the first time that the conference was held in Asia since its foundation in 1998. The objective of the conference is to offer clinicians and scientists the opportunity to collaboratively create and explore the new medical field. Specifically, MICCAI offers a forum for the discussion of the state of art in computer-assisted interventions, medical robotics, and image processing among experts from multi-disciplinary professions, including but not limited to clinical doctors, computer scientists, and mechanical and biomedical engineers. The expectations of society are very high; the advancement of medicine will depend on computer and device technology in coming decades, as they did in the last decades. We received 321 manuscripts, of which 41 were chosen for oral presentation and 143 for poster presentation. Each paper has been included in these proceedings in eight-page full paper format, without any differentiation between oral and poster papers. Adherence to this full paper format, along with the increased number of manuscripts, surpassing all our expectations, has led us to issue two proceedings volumes for the first time in MICCAI’s history. Keeping to a single volume by assigning fewer pages to each paper was certainly an option for us considering our budget constraints. However, we decided to increase the volume to offer authors maximum opportunity to argue the state of art in their work and to initiate constructive discussions among the MICCAI audience. |

| dr toshikatsu yamamoto: La nouvelle cranioacupuncture de Yamamoto (YNSA) Bernard MEMHELD, Guy MAZARS, 2011-05-03 Le docteur Toshikatsu Yamamoto, médecin japonais, découvrit dans les années 1970 une nouvelle somatotopie au niveau du crâne, jusque là inconnue. Il l'appela YNSA (Yamamoto New Scalp Acupuncture) afin qu'elle ne soit pas confondue avec la cranioacupuncture chinoise. Forme particulière de l'acupuncture, elle entre dans le cadre des « microsystèmes », qui ont tous en commun l'existence d'une somatotopie, représentation/projection du corps entier sur une zone très réduite de ce dernier, en l'occurrence, le cuir chevelu. Le domaine d'application thérapeutique est très large, incluant de nombreuses formes de douleurs aigues et chroniques, des pathologies neurologiques telles que les névralgies, les paralysies, les suites d'accidents vasculaires cérébraux... La cranioacupuncture de Yamamoto est relativement facile à apprendre, sa mise en oeuvre est rapide, et elle donne des résultats souvent étonnants. Pour toutes ces raisons, l'auteur, élève direct du Dr Yamamoto, a pour but de présenter, de la manière la plus pratique possible et à travers une riche iconographie, cette technique acupuncturale. |

| dr toshikatsu yamamoto: Acupuncture Research Hugh MacPherson, Richard Hammerschlag, George Thomas Lewith, Rosa N. Schnyer, 2007-10-12 This is the first book to set out a full range of research strategies for evaluating the clinical practice of acupuncture. Leading acupuncturists and researchers with international reputations share their expertise. They illustrate their descriptions with practical examples of what has worked and what has not. It outlines many of the key challenges in the field. These challenges relate to the nature of acupuncture and the gap between current research evidence and the actual experiences of acupuncturists in the field. By focusing the chapters on key research questions, rather than methods, the book has a user-friendly feel. Each chapter is easily accessible with brief explanations of research designs as well as vignettes of relevant past research. The book is based on a deep understanding of acupuncture, with its inherent complexity in practice, whether based on traditional principles or more modern concepts. By incorporating a more sophisticated understanding of the field, this book details a range of strategies aiming to develop the evidence base with the utmost rigour. It is the first book on acupuncture research to take this unique view, integrating the very best of evidence-based medicine with a genuine sensitivity to the discipline of acupuncture, from its traditional and holistic roots to its more modern interpretations. |

| dr toshikatsu yamamoto: Neurologische Krankheiten Hanspeter Hemgesberg, 2019-11-03 Neurologische Krankheiten: Fehlprogrammierung im Nervensystem Wenn von neurologischen Krankheiten die Rede ist, dann wird von vielen Menschen zuerst an die Migräne, Parkinson, Alzheimer-Demenz gedacht, dann an Epilepsie, Schlaganfälle und Gehirn-Tumoren, zumal bösartige, dann vielleicht noch an – insbesondere weil darüber in den Medien viel die Rede ist – an Multiple Sklerose, ADHS und Erkrankungen der peripheren Nerven, z.B. infolge eines Diabetes mellitus. Dann tun sich viele Mitmenschen bereits schwer, weitere neurolog. Krankheiten zu benennen. Dabei ereignen sich fast tagtäglich – regelrecht vor unserer Haustür – Unfälle, die eine Schädigung des Gehirns (ZNS) und/oder der peripheren Nerven nach sich ziehen, so Schädelbrüche, Hirnblutungen, Wirbelverletzungen oder Traumen an den Extremitäten. Außer neurologischen Autoimmunerkrankungen (MS, ALS) können pathogene Erreger (Viren, Bakterien, Parasiten usw.) ebenso zu neurologischen Krankheiten führen wie Schadstoffe (Noxen/Gifte – z.B. Alkohol, Drogen, Schwermetalle u.a.) und/oder Auswirkungen von sonstigen Krankheiten (z.B. Diabetes) u.a.m. Fakt ist: Die Zahl der neurologischen Krankheiten ist sehr groß; ebenso groß ist das Krankheits-Spektrum: von nur gering/wenig für den Betroffenen belastend und einschränkend bis hin zu einem unaufhaltsamen und fulminanten Krankheitsverlauf, der in absoluter Hilflosigkeit endet und leider auch mit einem vorzeitigem Tod. Die positive Kunde: Viele neurologische Krankheiten sind heute mit den Möglichkeiten der modernen Medizin wenn nicht heilbar, so im Verlauf verlangsambar und in den Beschwerden zumindest erleichterbar. |
| dr toshikatsu yamamoto: Functional Scalp Acupuncture Anne Angelone, Anne Angelone L Ac, 2019-11-14 The Functional Scalp Acupuncture (FSA) model promotes the application of neuroscience and evidenced-based acupuncture research to the treatment of chronic pain, depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, autism spectrum disorder (ASD), attention-deficit-hyperactivity-disorder (ADHD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), autoimmune, and Alzheimer's disease. Neuroscience has dramatically increased our knowledge and understanding of the underlying dysfunction in each of these conditions. As we shall soon discover, each disorder has a well-established 'neurobiological signature' that can give us clues as to where the imbalances lie and how to improve functional brain integration. In recent years, developments in neuroscience have offered significant breakthroughs in understanding the brain chemistry and neurobiology behind the symptoms associated with neuropsychiatric, neurobehavioral, neurodegenerative, and autoimmune disorders. From a neurobiological perspective, all of these disorders stem from a functionally disconnected and, therefore, asynchronous brain. Notably, in all of these disorders, the root cause can, in part, be explained by the lack of top-down control from the prefrontal cortex to subcortical limbic structures. This setup creates asynchrony, where brain structures, networks, and regions can become functionally disconnected and out of sync with each other. As a result of this disconnection, learning problems, memory issues, emotional, immune, sensory, social, and behavioral dysfunctions are bound to result. In the Functional Scalp Acupuncture model, an asynchronous brain is responsible for many of the physical, mental, emotional, and social difficulties related to the whole spectrum of neurobehavioral, neuropsychiatric, neurodegenerative, and autoimmune conditions. We can consider that they are all disorders related to cognitive, sensory, motor, and emotional regulation where the rhythm and timing are out of sync in one or more parts of the brain. They all are also disorders where inflammation is rampant. Contemporary acupuncturists need a comprehensive program that targets the primary problems - functional disconnection and inflammation. Lack of functional connectivity plus inflammation in our patient's brains results in many of the symptoms that present in our clinics. In light of what we now know, we can start to understand all disorders as asynchronous brain structures and networks that are churning out the neurophysiology that creates symptoms. The research can help us to become more astute at identifying symptoms that signify brain asynchrony in specific receiving and processing centers, e.g., from the midbrain, the thalamus, the basal ganglia, and somatosensory cortex, to limbic, sensory, and cognitive integration areas such as the insular cortex, dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, ventromedial PFC, and the orbitofrontal cortex. It can also help clue us in to brain network involvement, neurotransmitter imbalances, and synaptic impairment. In the FSA model, decreasing inflammation and improving the function of the prefrontal cortex, the somatosensory cortex, the motor cortex, and the association cortices, (as well as supporting functional connectivity to limbic structures), leads to brain integration and resolution of symptoms. The revolutionary import is that we can now consider depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, autism, ADHD, OCD, autoimmune, and Alzheimer's disease as brain asynchrony in need of balance. |
